Charlesview Residences at Brighton Mills, Allston
The Community Builders, Inc.
Allston, Massachusetts
HSH provided civil engineering, transportation planning, traffic engineering design, and permitting services for the relocation and expansion of the Charlesview affordable housing development in the North Allston neighborhood of Boston. The project was subject to City of Boston’s Article 80 Large Project Review process.
The existing housing development was located off the corner of Western Avenue and North Harvard Street and was nearly 40 years old and deteriorating. The new Charlesview development is located less than half a mile away on a portion of the existing Brighton Mills Shopping Center and provides a variety of rental and homeowner units for residents. The 240+ unit development included the creation of five new neighborhood blocks, enhancing the character of the community for residents.
