Hanover Everett | Second & Vine | Everett

It's 320 residential units.....and in Everett....in a neighborhood described by the OP as "It's a warehouse district with single family homes just scattered through, one or two per block..." That is a major turn towards urbanity.

And once that first pioneer project goes in, others will follow.....

There has been so much change in that area, other multifamily projects include Pioneer (ha.), Vero and V2 (technically in Chelsea), Mason, Maxwell, Anthem, and the one under construction on Revere Beach.

Is that new big garage, east, a part of this project?

-Apparently this is called Hanover Everett now.

Residents will enjoy a range of amenities, including a courtyard with a pool, a dog park, and the garage offering 435 vehicle parking spaces and 340 bike spots. Construction began early this year with completion slated for May 2026.“

Great photos, but that garage is one hulking, grey, plain and boring structure.

Can we hope that it will be largely hidden by surrounding buildings?

I hope so.
One problem with a (largely) featureless concrete hulk of a garage like this is that the concrete ages badly in this climate, getting badly stained and dingy after a few years. I would recommend applying a thick coat of paint in ten years, or sooner as needed.

I suspect the scrap metal yards will be gone as development in Everett advances.

I will say there has been advances in concrete - a lot of newer things built stay cleaner for longer because they're built with self cleaning concrete. That said, I don't think this garage is - self cleaning concrete is both expensive and usually much whiter thanks to the additives that make it self cleaning.

I think everyone expected the last multifamily boom to go on longer than it actually did. And certainly, as @Charlie_mta says, they'll be gone soon enough. The super-permissive zoning is still there, the demand is still there and the Fed's announcements today show we're on the way towards lower interest rates.

I've been involved with wall and bridge projects that used integral coloring of concrete (where the coloring is an ingredient in the concrete mix), and they turned out well.
