No, it won't be a gleaming glass condominiums with a rooftop terraces and pools with one-bedrooms starting at $600K... (ahem, are you listening Brooklyn?) Instead the new developments there will continue Melrose's trend of revitalization without displacement.
The Department of Housing Preservation and Development is proposing commercial/retail space (including an Administration for Children's Services child-care facility), along with mixed income housing across the 5.5 acre site.
Of course, since the BoogieDown is the greenest borough, all proposals for the site must reflect green-building practices.
We'd love to hear our favorite Melrose resident Eddie weigh in on this development...
