Barry’s Corner plan filed
Proposal for housing and retail in Allston submitted to Boston Redevelopment Authority
Following several months of community discussions, Samuels & Associates has filed a proposed plan for the Barry’s Corner Residential and Retail Commons project. The project is being proposed jointly with Harvard University, which owns the 2.67-acre parcel of land located at the intersection of North Harvard Street and Western Avenue, in the North Allston neighborhood. The Barry’s Corner Residential and Retail Commons — consisting of two buildings with residential uses on the upper floors; residential, amenity, and retail uses on the ground floor; and underground parking — is a key component in the creation of a new, vibrant, pedestrian-friendly destination in the North Allston neighborhood, further knitting together campus and community.
