Parcel 9 - Haymarket Hotel moves forward in Downtown
FROM THE BPDA
The development team has filed a Second Notice of Project Change and an Amended and Restated Development Plan to the PDA. The uses of the Proposed Project will remain the same. The key changes are a modest increase in its maximum height, from 65 feet to a maximum of 69 feet, 6 inches and a decrease from 29 feet to 27 feet for the restaurant portion of the building. The Amended and Restated PDA have been submitted to reflect the advancement of the design for both the height as well as the ground floor layout and other aspects of the building.
Live: 225 hotel units, patio and open space, new street-front landscaping
Work: Approximately 125 permanent jobs and 300 construction jobs
Connect: 9,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space, rooftop amenities, revitalized Blackstone Street and support for the Haymarket Pushcart Association
The NPC for the Parcel 9 Haymarket Hotel project, located on a 29,400 square foot parcel along the Rose F. Kennedy Greenway was approved with a modest increase in the maximum height of the building, from 65 feet to a maximum of 69 feet, 6 inches tall to achieve acceptable floor-to-ceiling heights within the building.
The project consists of a 225-key hotel, containing approximately 9,600 square feet of complementary retail and restaurant uses, a one-story component at the Hanover Street end that will house a restaurant as well as a rooftop deck and ground floor area off Blackstone Street that will be leased to the Haymarket Pushcart Association to accommodate storage and restrooms for their members. The ground floor of the building will also include restrooms accessible to the public as well as meeting space that can be made available for community use. The building design includes glass storefronts as well as building materials which provide a contemporary take on the historic setting of the project site between Blackstone Street and the North End neighborhood. The project will reconstruct Blackstone Street from North Street to Hanover Street, as well as streetscape improvements around all sides of the building, subject to required approvals from the City's Public Improvement Commission.
