The development proposed by Boston Communities includes a total of 25 duplex style ownership homes. The development will include 5 deed-restricted affordable units: 3 units at 80% Area Median Income (AMI) and 2 units at 120% AMI. The future development will maintain also some level of publicly available parking spaces and retain access to the nearby trails.”
