Somerville Planning Board Approves Changes to 1.6M Xmbly
The Somerville Planning Board has approved the proposed changes to the Master Plan for Xmbly at 5 Middlesex Avenue. New plans call for the elimination of the 190,000 square foot residential tower on Block 25 with an increase in office/lab/R&D space by approximately 272,000 square feet, inclusive of approximately 80,000 square feet of innovative space. A total of 1,220,000 square feet of office/lab/R+D space would now be provided within 3 buildings. Plans also call for a reduction in retail/restaurant space to 24,500 square feet but an increase in parking from 1696 spaces to 1899 in total. Construction is underway for the first building on the 9+ acre site, the 329 unit Alta XMBLY which will now be the only residential building within the project.
