February Eight Streets meeting

Hi Everyone!

 

Our next monthly Eight Streets business meeting will be this Wednesday, February 1st in the Boston Ballet 5th floor board room (corner of Warren & Clarendon streets)

6:30-7 - Neighborhood Networking.   Meet your neighbors in an informal setting.
7-8:30 - Business meeting. 

On the agenda this month:

• Proposed new building at 512-518 Tremont st.    Building plans will be presented, and they ask for neighborhood support of the project.  A vote will be taken
• Open member discussion

The main agenda item this month will be a new building proposal.    The "Old Dutch Candy" building is on Tremont, between Dwight st and PA 705 (Right next to the community garden).  Plans are for the building to be razed and replaced with a 6 story structure, with retail on the ground floor and a half dozen parking spaces to be accessed from the alley.   The building is slightly below the zoned height limit of 70 feet, and will have plenty of architectural detail.  If you're an abutter or are interested in some new architecture on Tremont, then come to the meeting and get full project details.

The 512/518 Tremont building is the only scheduled agenda item this month, so we'll have plenty of time for Open Member discussion this month.  If you have questions, gossip or neighborhoods issues, we'll have some open time to discuss what's on your mind.

Hope to see everyone there!
