Project Overview

The units are located above a level of below grade parking. The project includes retail spaces, large amenity spaces, a larger courtyard with amphitheater seating, connection foot traffic bridges, and harbor walk that surround the waterfront property. Two of the buildings extend out onto the piers facing the waterfront. The project is situated in an ideal location yards away from the MBTA Maverick Station on the Blue Line.

Challenges & Solutions

It is constructed in an area that was a prior ship slip. Due to the proximity to the water, the project was designed with tidal fluctuations and flood measures in place.
