Proposed development at Brighton-Brookline line would break ground by end of year

The proposed 5 Washington Street mixed-use development, located at the Brighton-Brookline line, would break ground in the fourth quarter of 2018 per newly revealed project plans. The proposed building would contain 115 apartment residences including studios, one-bedrooms, two-bedrooms and three-bedrooms, ranging from 558 to 1,111 square feet in size.

12,500 square feet of retail space would be located on the building’s ground floor, potentially including a pharmacy as well as approximately 1,000 square feet designated as local retail leased at a discounted rate with flexible lease terms in order to support new business creation. 104 vehicle parking spaces would be located on site, primarily within a below-grade parking garage. As part of the project, a new public ground-level landscaped open space with seating would be created.

Construction of the proposed building would take approximately 18 months, with completion expected by Summer 2019. The project’s proponent, KIG Real Estate Advisors, has filed plans for the proposed building with the Boston Planning & Development Agency (BPDA), who is now reviewing the project.
