We are thrilled to be providing sustainable, well-designed homes that will provide wealth building opportunities for Roxbury residents and beyond.
As winner of the City of Boston’s Mayor’s Office of Housing Innovation Competition – which asked development teams to propose innovative compact living designs – DREAM is both developer and architect for this new affordable home-ownership project currently under construction. The development is located on an infill site on a formerly vacant lot and serves as a sustainable model for compact, mixed-income housing. DREAM led the entitlements and community engagement components of the project, managed the design and construction team and assembled the project financing/investment.
The development concept is meant to maximize the number of units, making the project financially feasible while addressing a need for smaller units in a part of Boston that contains mostly larger units. 24 Westminster Avenue will provide 12 new homeownership opportunities that are affordable and sustainable. The building will consist of six one-bedroom homes, and six three-bedroom homes. Six (6) units will be available for sale to households earning at or below 80% of Area Median Income (AMI) and six (6) will be available to households at 100% of AMI. 24 Westminster will be a Silver LEED certifiable property when complete in 2025.
