POUA & CICD Celebrate 150 River Street Groundbreaking!

We were thrilled to celebrate the groundbreaking of 150 River Street Village, in partnership with Caribbean Integration Community Development, Inc., yesterday in Mattapan with so many of our State and City officials, lenders, development team members, and neighbors; it takes a village to develop projects like this, that will create 30 units of affordable and mixed-income housing for seniors in Mattapan.

Thank you to Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll, Bishop Uglietto, Sheila Dillon (Mayor's Office of Housing), Sheila Galicki (Department of Housing & Urban Development), and Roger Herzog (Community Economic Development Assistance Corporation) for being part of our speaking program yesterday, and thank you to all of our team members, and to Eastern Bank; Secretary Ed Augustus; Red Stone Equity; and to Valerie Burton and the River Street Civic Association for their support of 150 River Street Village.

POUA & CICD Celebrate Morton Station Village Ribbon Cutting in Mattapan!

POUA and our partner Caribbean Integration Community Development were thrilled to celebrate the ribbon cutting of Morton Station Village in Mattapan, 40 units of mixed-income, mixed-tenure housing — 28 rental apartments and 12 affordable homeownership units — for a diverse range of households, with incomes from 30% AMI to 100% AMI. The housing development sits next to the Morton Station MBTA Fairmount Line stop, and will contain significant community space that will be connected to a unique feature—the creation of a new passive Boston Parks’ Department-designed public space to be known as the Steven P. Odom Serenity Garden, with funding provided by the City of Boston’s Community Preservation Act.

 

We were joined for the dedication by Cardinal Seán O'Malley, Secretary Ed Augustus, the Mayor’s Office of Housing, State Senator Liz Miranda, State Representative Russell Holmes, State Representative Brandy Fluker Oakley, MassHousing, Community Economic Development Assistance Corporation, Bank of America, City Councilor Brian Worrell, team members and community members to celebrate the grand opening on November 3rd.
