3200 Washington Street is expected to open in early Fall 2018. Residences will range in size from 450 square feet to 1,300 square feet, with rents ranging from $2,000 to $3,000 per month. A total of 12 residences at 3200 Washington Street will be designated affordable, including nine apartments for households at 70% and 100% of area median income (AMI) and three 3-bedroom condominiums for households at 70% and 100% AMI.

3200 Washington Street will be located in Jamaica Plain’s vibrant, culturally-diverse Egleston Square neighborhood, steps from the MBTA Orange Line and Southwest Corridor Park. “[We’re] thrilled that 3200 Washington is part of such an exciting neighborhood,” says Berkeley Investments President Young Park. “Access to the MBTA Orange Line and the Southwest Corridor Park for biking, walking and running make this a highly desirable location for renters who want a tremendous value so close to the city of Boston, in a neighborhood that’s becoming more vibrant each day with new restaurants, stores and cafes. We’re delighted that our future retail spaces will add to this growing synergy.”

3200 Washington Street will strengthen the growing Egleston Square community with new mixed-income housing options and street-level retail. “It’s exciting to be a part of the energy here on Washington Street, and we look forward to working with community leaders to enrich this neighborhood,” says Berkeley Investments Development Project Manager Esther Byun. “[We are] proud to support this development project. Not only will it add new businesses to the area’s commercial mix, but it also incorporates affordable rental and home ownership options while activating a site that’s been vacant for years,” says Egleston Square Main Street Executive Director Luis Edgardo Cotto.
