South End residential church conversion pivots from apartments to condominiums
Bodwell Pines Corporation, who is converting the South End’s historic Immaculate Conception Church and adjacent Link Building into 63 residences dubbed The Cosmopolitan, proposes to offer the residences as ownership condominiums as opposed to apartments as previously planned. The proposal reflects the strong demand for condominiums in Boston and follows several projects’ recent switches from apartments to condominiums, for instance 99 Tremont Street in Brighton and 340 West Second Street in South Boston, as well as the introduction of condominiums to prominent apartment developments such as Bulfinch Crossing's Phase I residential tower.
Bodwell Pines has also secured five additional parking spaces in the adjacent James Court garage, increasing the project’s total available parking spaces to 45 from 40. Bodwell Pines has filed a Notice of Project Change (NPC) formally proposing the changes to The Cosmopolitan with the Boston Planning & Development Agency (BPDA), who is now reviewing the proposal.
