EAST ST. FLATS II COMING SOON
SEND plans to transform two vacant lots along the East Street Corridor into a vibrant mixed-use development featuring five affordable rental homes and one neighborhood commercial space. This project supports SEND’s commitment to expanding affordable housing opportunities while also contributing to the continued growth and vitality of the East Street business district.
East Street Corridor Mixed-Use Development
Affordable Housing
The development will add five affordable rental homes in the Bates-Hendricks neighborhood, an area where rising housing costs have made it increasingly difficult for many residents to find affordable places to live. As demand for housing has grown in recent years, rents have increased throughout the neighborhood.
By creating new affordable homes along the East Street Corridor, SEND will help ensure that individuals and families can continue to live in a neighborhood that offers convenient access to public transportation, walkable amenities, and nearby employment opportunities. This project builds on SEND’s existing investment in the area, including other affordable rental properties located nearby on South East Street.
Neighborhood Commercial Space
The project also includes a new commercial storefront designed to support a locally owned business. The East Street Corridor has experienced strong commercial growth in recent years, with numerous new businesses opening and contributing to the area’s unique character and economic vitality.
The new commercial space aligns with neighborhood goals to strengthen the corridor as a destination that serves local residents and supports small businesses. In addition to providing valuable services and amenities, the project has the potential to create new jobs and expand economic opportunities within the community.
Together, the affordable housing and commercial components of this development will help create a more connected, accessible, and thriving East Street Corridor for current and future residents. For section 3 construction work opportunities, click the button below.
