More changes coming to the neighborhood.
A new four- to six-story building with 252 units and commercial space could be coming to West First Street in South Boston.
The Boston Business Journal is reporting that a Jones Street Investment Partners affiliate has filed a letter of intent with the Boston Planning and Development Agency to replace a storage facility located at 295 West First with a new 1.5-acre development.
The 226,000-square-foot project would include ground-floor retail and community space as well as on-site garaged parking. The building would be nearly 70 tall on the West First Street side and under 50 on West Second Street.
Also proposed in this neighborhood is this large-scale development with seven buildings on 8 acres.
