More development coming to West Broadway
Right before our eyes, the block of West Broadway between Dorchester St and F is transforming into one of the most sought after blocks in our neighborhood. Over the last 5 years, it’s gone from dollar stores and a shuttered cinema to new restaurants, a coffee shop and fitness studio and lots of luxury condos on the horizon.
And now the a new project is proposed for the buildings at 453-469 West Broadway (The Dollar Store, Nick’s House of Pizza, Naning Wok and Natural Nails). The project will replace the three commercial buildings with a five story development with 44 units and 48 parking spots. On the ground-floor would be nearly 14,000 square feet of commercial space.
According to the Boston Herald, 38 of the condos would be market-rate and six would be designated as “affordable.”
The developer for this project – the same developer that wants to build at 463 West Broadway is part of the team that wants to replace the Gulf station at 87-93 West Broadway.
New future developments for that block also include the old Broadway Movie Theater and the old Schubert’s/Perkins Supply/Dunkin Donuts building.
If only there was a way for things to be built instantaneously. Love that the neighborhood is continuing its revitalization…but could do without the scaffolding & resulting increase in traffic.
Thank god… Give them a 6th story if they promise to complete it by the end of the 2018.
Will you still early able to use your EBT card in the new stares like they do in family dollar?
Glad to see that area picking up..now let’s get rid of “MCGOOS” and that stupid mexican/Chinese dump.
McGoos is actually a great spot for a late slice. I haven’t been there for anything but a late slice, but a great late slice it is.
Haha, don’t you dare hate on Lee Chens. Yeah, sure… it’s kind of a dump… but also kind of awesome. Where else can you get a general gau chicken burrito?
A “late slice” ?? How many beers did you had before you consumed a “late slice” at this GREASE PIT !! As far as this so called Mexican/Chinese restaurant is concerned I wouldn’t eat there if the food was FREE..bring back THE IA AND OCEAN KIA ????????
More than a few.
