hastings37
The two-story commercial brick Insurance/BAMSI building would be torn down and replaced with a new four-story mixed-use building. (1895 Centre Street is next to the Hastings St public parking lot, directly across the street from Family Dollar.)

The proponents of 1895 Centre Street would like to know if they can present at the West Roxbury Neighborhood Council in November. They would like to receive feedback from WRNC, WRMS, and the abutters in that area. They have not filed yet and would like to meet with the community beforehand.
The proposal is a new four-story mixed-use building consisting of approximately 4,856 square feet of ground-floor commercial space, with 24 residential units on floors two through four. The size of the site is 15,372 square feet, resulting in a proposed FAR of 1.9 based on the 28,700 GSF planned for the building. There would be 25 off-street parking spaces.
