Too bad Winthrop won't have a slanted roof in the opposite direction.

This one just flipped back to condos.

From the initial switch announcement, I hope this remains true:
The switch means the company will now only have about $22 million to put towards the so-called Parcel 12 project which would include one building with up to 170 affordable apartments and a hotel, rather than the $48 million it had originally promised through proceeds from the sale of condos. Larkin said Millennium Partners remains committed to the project - which helped the BPDA agree to let it forgo affordable units in Winthrop Square - and that if the Boston economy takes off again, the company would convert the apartments to condos and add back the remaining $26 million.

It was approved by the BPDA board back in February 2020, what timing! You'd imagine if Wu insists that MP put back in that additional $26M, there's no reason for it not to go ahead now, financial headwinds not withstanding.


Project Description
288 Tremont Street Partners LLC, a collaborative venture between Asian Community Development Corporation (“ACDC”), Corcoran Jennison Company, Inc., MPB Tremont LLC (an affiliate of MP Boston) and Tufts Shared Services, Inc., is proposing a mixed-use development for 288-298 Tremont Street. The proposed project consists of a 350-foot-tall building of approximately 426,500 square feet, and it includes a 100% income-restricted residential tower component with up to 168 affordable home ownership and rental housing units, a hotel with up to 200 rooms, up to 340 off-street vehicle parking spaces, retail space, and approximately 8,000 square feet of community space (which may be expanded to approximately 14,000 square feet) that the Proponent hopes will be utilized as a Chinatown branch of the Boston Public Library.
