The vacant Gorham Street lot that was once the site of the majestic St. Peter's Church is slated for construction of two six-story, 24-townhouse unit buildings for 48 middle-income families.
The proposed project will include 36 two-bedroom, four one-bedroom and eight three-bedroom rental units for families earning less than 60 percent of the area median income. CBA recently purchased the vacant lot at 305 Gorham St., as well as the remaining former rectory building at 327 Gorham St., from James Cooney. Cooney's real-estate and insurance office will remain as a tenant in the former rectory building, as will the law offices of John W. Coddaire III, Daniel R. Tenczar and Eric Schutzbank.
, Unity Place Apartments is the crowning achievement in the Coalition for a Better Acre’s $80 million transformation of the Moody Street corridor in Lowell, MA, over the past two decades, completing the circle of reinvestment in these critical blocks that has been a catalyst to new private reinvestment in neighboring properties. The exciting new development replaces two of the city’s most notorious blighted buildings with 23 one-, two-, and three-bedroom units of smart, green affordable housing.
The project was completed in November 2011.
