ABOUT THE PROJECT and BUILDING F:
The Bunker Hill Housing Redevelopment project, formerly One Charlestown, aims to create a vibrant, new mixed-income (market rate and deeply affordable) residential community for all Charlestown residents that pays homage to Charlestown’s local history. Built in 1940 as federal public housing, the Bunker Hill Housing development is severely depreciated with many buildings in disrepair due to lack of federal funding. Through a public-private partnership with the City of Boston, the existing 42 buildings will be replaced with 15 new residential buildings, retail and community space, as well as green spaces and connections to the surrounding Charlestown neighborhood.
Building F is a 9-story, 266-unit mixed-income building of 208 market rate and 58 deeply affordable units. It is the second new apartment building in the first phase of the Bunker Hill Housing Redevelopment's large-scale master plan to redevelop the entire Bunker Hill public housing community over the next decade, creating a total of 15 Passive House certified Buildings; 2,699 Units of housing, including 1,010 Affordable Units; 7 Acres of Open Space; a 14,000 SF Community Center; and ~50,000 SF of Retail.
