More More on Lowell

Aside from working with two beautiful buildings and the really great people in Lowell, the Hamilton Canal Lofts project is really exciting because of two investments the City is making right next to us.

The buildings are situated in Lowell's Jackson/Appleton/Middlesex (JAM) Urban Renewal Area, and to help spur the revitalization of this neighborhood on the edge of Lowell's hip downtown, the City is building a $22 million parking garage with 900 spaces. It just so happens that this garage is located right across the street from 165 Jackson, and our residents will have leased spaces in the garage. How's that for a happy coincidence?

Also, adjacent to the west of our site is the 15-acre Hamilton Canal District master developer site. The City issued an RFP for master developers and is currently considering its short list. The redevelopment of this big chunk of land (some rehab, some new construction) will really get this neighborhood moving and make a connection between the downtown and the train station. We are excited about the possibilities!
