Haverhill Developments

[MonopolyBag]

I was in Haverhill MA and noticed a new parking garage. It has been being worked on for a long time, I had just never noticed it before.

It is next to teh MBTA station in Haverhill.

They have this on the cities site
http://www.ci.haverhill.ma.us/departments/econ/garage.htm

But I can not find any updates online. I think it is site #2 where it is being built. It looks pretty much done.

Don't mean to hijack your thread, but also about Haverhill.

Boston.com's "House of the week" is from Haverhill and I think it's pretty cool. A ~1790 "double saltbox" home.

The Carr-John Estabrook house, built by the Estabrooks, is a double saltbox where many of the original ceiling beams are still exposed. It is part of Rocks Village, a National Historic District, an assemblage of houses and outbuildings that was settled along the banks of the Merrimack River as early as 1640.

Nice. And it is not highjacking, only sharing other info.

Perusing the web, noticed some stuff going on here in the last couple of years, and especially one very recent development. Figured I'd show Haverhill some love.

This project is a couple years in the making, either opened up recently or is about to, I believe:

There's also this plan at 194 Merrimack St., which was recently announced:

Interesting stuff, both in the downtown area as far as I can tell, although I haven't been recently. Anyone know of anything else going on?

The Heights at Haverhill (the proposal referenced just above) is on the way to topping off, 10 floors. https://www.bldup.com/projects/192-merrimack-street Rendering isn't accurate sadly, here is the project https://www.sga-arch.com/projects/the-heights-at-haverhill/ which is almost as good. Great to see quality residential design in the suburbs. This could easily have been just another Avalon-style colonial junk pile.

Did a self-guided tour of cities on the Merrimack River yesterday, including Haverhill. Snapped these pictures of the Heights. Not sure when it was completed but the ground floor appeared mostly vacant.

It's still a nice looking building that looks slightly out of place in Haverhill, which is a good thing.

Look at the views, wow!

Theres are seriously incredible. I actually think these views of the river and downtown in their own way stand up to most views from towers in Boston.

Nice riverwalk as well

I would gladly live here.

Haverhill Councilors Approve Ward Hill Housing and Retail Plan; Builder to Donate to Firefighter Manning

We’re redeveloping our dilapidated old factory building into Oxford Crossing Village Center. This will be a unique, walkable gathering place with a fun social environment, consisting of our new restaurant and an outdoor patio, a bakery and gourmet market, two boutique retail spaces and 230 residential units,” she said.

Plans originally called for 270 units, but were reduced to avoid any wetlands conflicts. The housing is to be built within a six-story residential building. There will also be 3,000 square feet of retail, a 1,200 square-foot-bakery and a 200-seat restaurant.
