Norwood infill and small developments

my whole life I've been surprised by how big this unused space right next to this train station was. Glad to see its finally getting somewhat filled in.
Some more info, 132 units is pretty substantial for 1 building. Especially for norwood and directly next to the station.

Maugel DeStefano Architects Designs New 132-Unit Passive House Multifamily Community in Norwood​


“NORWOOD, MA — Maugel DeStefano Architects announced plans for a new 132-unit Passive House multifamily community in Norwood, designed for Boston-based developer Panther Residential Management.

The project, located at 25 East Hoyle Street, sits directly across from the Norwood MBTA commuter rail station and within walking distance of downtown, offering residents convenient access to Boston and surrounding communities.

The transit-oriented development will include a mix of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, each designed for comfort, efficiency, and ample natural light…..”

 
Two lawmakers said they are filing a bill Monday for the state to take Norwood Hospital by eminent domain, creating a potential pathway for the former Steward hospital to reopen under a new owner.
Reopening the flood-ravaged hospital, which has been shuttered for over five years, has been a top priority for the town and its residents. Following Steward Health Care’s 2024 bankruptcy, Norwood is the last hospital in the state still owned by an Alabama-based real estate investment trust linked to Steward.
State Representative John Rogers said several unnamed prospective hospital operators are interested in buying Norwood Hospital and are negotiating with its landlord, Medical Properties Trust.
Rogers said he is encouraging the parties to reach a deal, but as negotiations continue, he and State Senator Michael Rush, both Democrats who represent the area, are simultaneously seeking a different tactic to get the hospital into the hands of a new operator — using state muscle.
The bill’s draft language, shared with the Globe, would authorize and direct the state’s Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance to take the property by eminent domain.
The goal would ultimately be to secure a new operator for the site, whether through a deal signed with the landlord, or a sale to a new operator by way of the state.
