Project Goals

Over 14,000 square feet are under consideration for preservation as open space in the Highland Park neighborhood of Roxbury. A community meeting was held in January 2021, in partnership with the Highland Park Project Review Committee, to solicit feedback on this suggested permanent use. An RFP for the parcels' preservation was issued in Fall 2021, and no responses were received.

MOH is continuing community engagement before re-issuing an RFP.

This is an undeveloped lot owned by the City of Boston’s Department of Neighborhood Development.

The Department of Neighborhood Development acquires surplus and foreclosed property and is responsible for managing this real estate. We work to create housing and open space by making that land available to Bostonians over time through a public Request for Proposals process. This parcel of land is not yet planned for development, but stay tuned!

Do you need to report a non-emergency issue with this property? Contact Boston 311.
