One step closer to this large-scale development is a reality for Boston Street, including two buildings, six stories, and 90 teeny-tiny apartments!
Universal Hub is reporting that the Zoning Board of Appeal recently approved plans to replace an old vintage furniture store with a new complex with 90 compact apartments and 8,500 square feet of commercial space featuring a gym, a cafe, a seasonal patio, and a juice bar. There will also be meeting and recreation rooms, a lounge, a pet washing and grooming station, and a green space.
According to Universal Hub, the complex will have an easement that will let the owner of the Scrubadub car wash next door on West Howell Street add a queuing area for vehicles once the car wash is upgraded. Apparently, there have been numerous neighborhood complaints about cars jamming up the area waiting for car washes.
