Bartlett Yards | 2505-2565 Washington Street | Roxbury
- Thread starter FK4
- Start date
5/26:
Lot D (the Kenzi - 50 units, opened last month) & Lot F (in site work)
OMG - is this a building where souls go to die???? I've seen cold blocks before, but this one is truly epic.
10/13:
Building F2 (28 units)
BuildingF4 (37 units) F5 (44 units)
Edit: I could have sworn I previously read somewhere that it was F2 and F4 that were under construction, but according to the Planning Department it's actually F2 and F5 that are going up. Based on the map that Stick n Move posted in the previous page, F5 makes more sense as the one being developed.

Overall, this whole site has been a big disappointment. I dont know why even a modicum of effort couldn't have been made by the city to make these buildings not look as utterly cheap as they do. This was a giant piece of land right next to a major commercial district, tabula rasa, and somehow they couldn't do any better than this? Sad.
I left my backpack on a bus in high school or maybe middle school once. I called the MBTA and it had been found, and I picked it up at what I think was the lost and found for the whole W/SW bus region… At Bartlett Yards. Memories…
Thanks for the pic! To add to the mix, Boston City Archives has a bunch of photos of the original construction of the Elevated and Guild St. Carhouse at Bartlett station:

Amazing pics. Man, it must have sucked to have lived on Washington Street when they came in and said, sorry, your living room is going to look at metal nowThanks for the pic!
