Boston PFC Approves Five Land Transfers for Housing and Open Space Across Four Neighborhoods

Uncategorized 2026-07-22 clip6135 · Meeting of July 22, 2026

Boston Public Facilities Commission approves five DND land transfers adding 56 housing units and two permanent community gardens. The commission, staffed by Chair Craven and Commissioner Irish, voted unanimously on all five items presented by the Department of Neighborhood Development under Chief and Director Shayla Dylan. The largest housing action designated Boston Partnership for Community Reinvestment, LLC as developer for 12 scattered Dorchester parcels — a second attempt after original designee Oxbow was removed for cost-containment failures — promising 16 units with 14 affordable homeownership slots and $57,598 in projected annual tax revenue.

A 40-unit East Boston project on Condor Street, conveyed to Aleron Home Ownership, LLC for $300, will include a low-income housing tax credit rental component with artist-workspace set-asides, backed by roughly $720,000 in city land value. An amended conveyance in Roxbury raised the Marcella Street purchase price from $137,500 to $170,000 for a three-unit, net-energy-positive homeownership building on parcels held by the city for more than 50 years.
