Boston Public Facilities Commission Approves Six Property Dispositions Across Five Neighborhoods

BOSTON — July 20, 2026 — Boston Public Facilities Commission unanimously approved six property dispositions Monday, moving vacant city-owned land toward housing, arts, and urban agriculture use across five neighborhoods. Chair Katherine Craven and Commissioner Larry Mimoli voted in favor of all six items, which were presented by the Mayor's Office of Housing and generated a combined $413,200 in sale revenues — led by a $171,000 conveyance of a South Boston lot to Jeffrey Sullivan for yard and parking use and a $114,000 conveyance of a Mattapan parcel to Roger F. Harris that ended 35 years of city ownership. The commission also renewed a lapsed tentative developer designation for Madison Park Development Corporation at 75-81 Dudley Street in Roxbury, where a $100 sale would produce 15 income-restricted homeownership units; extended Boston Food Forest Coalition's designation for a Dorchester parcel to allow additional fundraising ahead of a targeted December conveyance vote; and designated minority-owned ILYB LLC as developer for the historic Nun Factory on Washington Street in Roxbury for $200, advancing a performing arts and community cultural hub six years in the making.
