We are thrilled to announce that our Mattapan development in partnership with Caribbean Integration Community Development, Cote Village, has been chosen as the family category winner in Affordable Housing Finance Magazine's 2022 National Readers’ Choice Awards! Thank you so much to everyone who voted!
Our own Amarillys Rodriguez, who serves on the board of Builders of Color Coalition, was on hand as the Boston Planning & Development Agency held a press conference to announce the introduction of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) disclosures as part of the Article 80 process. The BPDA votes on the policy this afternoon.
"As the Builders of Color Coalition, we are pleased to see the City moving forward in increasing access and diversity in Boston's commercial real estate sector," said Colleen Fonseca, the President of BCC. "This proposed policy can empower the development community to highlight and promote innovative solutions to transform commercial real estate into a sector of opportunity and diversity."
We are so grateful that Cote Village is nominated for a national Affordable Housing Finance award for Best Family Housing!
