100 new units of housing on tap for Boston Medical Center & South End

The Boston Redevelopment Authority has given approval to a proposal to create more than 100 apartments in the South End neighborhood of Boston.

From the press release:

Boston University Medical Center Receives Approval for Additional Graduate Student Housing

The BRA board granted approval for an amendment to Boston University Medical Center’s Institutional Master Plan to include the creation of the Albany Street Fellows Graduate Housing Project. This project will replace a presently vacant structure and existing surface parking/storage uses with a new residential building and substantial open space that will contribute to the urban design and character of the surrounding area.

The project will provide up to 104 units for approximately 208 students who currently attend the School of Medicine and the School of Medical Sciences, but who live in private apartments in the City of Boston. Projects such as this build on Boston’s ability to continue to lead the nation in NIH funding by offering opportunities to those in the life sciences and biomedical fields.

Total project cost is $44 million. In addition to BUMC as the developer, the project team includes Beacon Architectural Associates as the project architect and Rubin & Rudman as legal counsel. The project will create 250 construction jobs.

Fallon Towle & Associates is the designated developer of the parcel. Stull and Lee, Inc. is the architect.
