by Taylor Williams

CAMBRIDGE, MASS. — MassDevelopment has issued $10.3 million in tax-exempt bond financing to Putnam School Apartments LLC, an affiliate of the Cambridge Housing Authority. The borrower will use the proceeds to buy and renovate Putnam School Apartments, a 33-unit affordable housing facility serving seniors and individuals with disabilities. A historic schoolhouse built in 1890, the building was converted to multifamily in 1983; most of the housing units have not been updated since. Renovations will include upgrading mechanical, electrical, plumbing and ventilation systems, as well as installing new flooring, lighting, cabinets, counters, fixtures and appliances within the units.
