Work starts on transformative Washington Village mixed-use development in South Boston’s Andrew Square
Demolition of existing, low-slung buildings has begun at the future site of Washington Village, a $400 million, 735,000-square-foot mixed-use development that will transform South Boston’s Andrew Square, constructing eight buildings as high as 22 stories. Washington Village is one of the first key developments of the South Boston Dorchester Avenue Planning Initiative (PLAN Dot Ave), a municipal up-zoning effort that will transform the Dorchester Avenue corridor, currently a sleepy industrial strip, into a vibrant mixed-use corridor. Washington Village will construct a total of 656 residential units, including both apartments and condominiums, and 98,600 square feet of retail space, with a 1.5-acre public plaza and green at the development’s center. The development will span five acres and six city blocks. The following are photographs of demolition underway at Washington Village:
