The proposed redevelopment project involves the change in occupancy and interior/roof renovation of the existing three-story building located at 2164-2168 Washington Street, Roxbury, MA (Parcel ID: 0802478000). The basement of the existing building is currently excluded from the building’s GFA; in addition to renovating the existing building, Applicant proposes to fit out the basement to accommodate the project's proposed uses, which will include studio (arts/music), community center and accessory office uses. Applicant does not propose to continue any of the building's currently permitted uses, including storage, store, gallery and art exhibit and sales. In connection with the project, Applicant and the Boston Planning Department will enter into an easement agreement, which will grant Applicant the exclusive right to use portions of two adjacent parcels owned by the Boston Redevelopment Authority (Parcel ID: 0802472000; Parcel ID: 0802479000) on which the existing building encroaches.
