Project Goals
Parker Terrace is a unique 3 story mixed-use development to be built into a hillside on multiple city vacant parcels on Parker and Terrace Streets in Mission Hill. The developer designation is the result of a lengthy community process to define development, design, and sustainability goals . The 100% rental development offers 60 units of which 12 are affordable. Community supported features include art elements, an improved and enlarged community garden, Energy Positive housing (a photovoltaic panel field will help create more electricity from the sun than what will be used in the homes); sustainable development features, full remediation of a contaminated site and underground parking on Terrace St. The project was delayed for 2 years due to an abutter appeal of the Zoning Board of Appeals decision. The appeal was dismissed by the court in 2017 and Sebastian Mariscal, the designated developer, has focused his and his team's attention to achieving a spring construction start.
