NEW YORK – The Archdiocese of Boston and governor’s office have broken ground on what will be a community of more than a dozen affordable housing units.
The initiative is part of an effort to help ease growing housing struggles – particularly for elders – in Massachusetts.
Massachusetts Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll joined archdiocesan leaders on June 12 for the groundbreaking of 150 River Street Village in Mattapan, Massachusetts, which over the next year will be transformed from a vacant lot, owned by the city of Boston, into 30 units of mixed-income, age-restricted studio and one-bedroom rental units.
