In Allston, the BPDA approved a new artist live-work space at 90 Braintree St. The project supports Allston’s artist community by creating new housing, as well as new income-restricted artist live-work space. The project will include a six-story building with 111 new rental units. Twenty-two units will be income-restricted and five will be designated as artist live-work space.

The units will be a combination of studios, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom units. 

The main floor of the building will include an artist working space. There will be garage parking for vehicles, as well as onsite bicycle spaces. 

Project developers will contribute $500,000 to the Allston Brighton Community Development Corporation to help fund 20 affordable housing units on Hano Street long with additional community benefits, including $75,000 for bike lane improvements as part of the Allston Brighton Mobility Plan, $49,000 toward a new Bluebikes station and $111,000 for improvements at nearby Penniman Park.
