BPDA Approves New Development

Adopts Imagine Boston 2030

Boston – The Boston Planning & Development Agency (BPDA) Board of Directors approved one new development project at the August board meeting.

The approval of the $6 million, 110 Savin Hill Avenue project will yield the construction of a two-building, mixed-use development totaling approximately 23,984sf. One building will be a three-story commercial retail structure, and the second building will be a three-story residential structure containing nine condominium units.

The board also voted to adopt Imagine Boston 2030, the first citywide plan in over 50 years. Imagine Boston 2030, which has been underway since fall of 2015 and has been shaped by the input of over 15,000 residents of Boston, is a comprehensive vision to boost quality of life, equity, and resilience in every neighborhood across the city.

Mayor Walsh officially unveiled the plan on July 11 that outlines how Boston is experiencing an economic and population boom. While that growth presents challenges, it also presents an opportunity to provide additional pathways for economic mobility and avenues to improve quality of life throughout the city.
