Hello Everyone,
I just confirmed with Marchelle at Boston Parks and Recreation, even though the handout says Tuesday, August 15, it should read Monday, August 15, therefore Movie Night is tonight.

Hello Everyone,
When a developer is asked why their project can't be condominiums, their response is the market in Allston Brighton is not conducive to that type of housing, and/or those type of projects are difficult to finance and/or land acquisition costs are prohibitive. The Boston Magazine article below provides additional support to blow those responses out of the water. Having the lowest days on market in the City for the month of July, shows the strong demand and appeal of condominiums in our community. On the issue of financing, condos are being built in record numbers across the City and a lender would be stupid to hesitate in financing projects in Allston Brighton given the stats below. Finally, land acquisition costs in Allston Brighton are very comparable with other neighborhoods in the City where condo development is flourishing.
It's pretty simple, given the rental market in Allston Brighton, the most profitable housing to build is rental. That's what the developers want. The community wants more home ownership opportunities. With condominium projects, developers will still make a handsome profit but would also provide housing this community desperately needs.

Here’s Where Condos Are Selling the Fastest
The neighborhood lineup isn’t what you would expect.
By Madeline Bilis | Home & Property | August 9, 2016, 2:41 p.m.
In general, condos in Boston are selling fairly fast. The units selling the fastest, though, are concentrated in three specific neighborhoods.
A new report from real estate data site NeighborhoodX looked at the condos that spend the fewest number of days on the market. By examining transactions that closed in the month of July, NeighborhoodX compiled the “days on market” data to create its list of fast-selling neighborhoods.
The list ranges from 24 days to 69 days on the market, putting Brighton and Back Bay on either ends of the spectrum. Brighton, Allston, and Dorchester all tied for the fastest-selling neighborhood at 24 days. The boom in Dorchester seems fitting, but we’re searching for other signs of buyers clamoring to purchase property in Allston and Brighton.
Back Bay was the slowest seller, clocking in at an average of 69 days on the market. Interestingly, both Jamaica Plain and Beacon Hill fall beside each other in the middle.
The neighborhoods where condos spent the fewest days on the market had an average selling price of less than $450,000. Out of all the places where it took the longest to sell, Roxbury and West Roxbury also hit an average of under $450,000. Back Bay tipped the scale with its average selling price—a whopping $1.7 million.
Wondering where your neighborhood lines up? See for yourself below:

Thanks Tony. The BAIA should know this one for long time right? Why they support all these rental projects like the 425 Washington Street rental project build in our neighborhood one after the others? The painful is that none of our neighbors know what BAIA is and/or do not go their BAIA meetings regularly (me too). So no one against these rental projects in their BAIA meetings do not mean that all the Allston/Brighton residents agree with it. That is why/what the public meeting of each building project for. Last time we had the public meeting for this 425 Washing Street rental project at Oak Square, about 95% of the people in the meeting against this rental project due to lots of reasons that I don’t want to repeat here. Then the BRA approve it in April that we, the immediate neighbors did not even know about until recently. Sigh!!!!
Maybe it is about time that the Allston/Brighton has one group that our residents can plan and make the decisions about our neighborhood futures and not just let the BAIA and/or our representatives officers decide what to do with our future.
Does it make sense?
Thanks!
Angela
