88 Geneva Avenue project to bring 36 homeownership units with green roof to Dorchester
Live: 36 homeownership units, six income-restricted
Work: Approximately 50 construction jobs
Connect: Close proximity to public transportation
Sustain: Green roof, additional green space along the sidewalk
This project will build 36 new homeownership units on what is currently vacant land in Dorchester. These will be a mix of one, two, and three-bedroom units. Public realm improvements from this project will include wider sidewalks, as well as new street trees. This project will support the Grove Hall community with a $100,000 contribution for programming, internships, educational opportunities, and activities for area residents, to be administered by non-profit organizations and institutions that serve the community. In support of the City’s bikeshare system, the project will also contribute $10,074.
