WORCESTER SCHOOL TO BECOME APARTMENT HOUSING

WORCESTER, MASS. — WinnDevelopment is redeveloping the former Worcester Vocational High School into 84 apartments, called Voke Lofts. The Boston-based firm recently broke ground on the 116,306-square-foot project at 34 Grove St. The project is reported to cost $32 million. Half of the units will be market-rate apartments, while the other half will provide discounted rates for low-income tenants. Amenities will include a computer center, fitness center and bike storage. The building's first units will be available to rent in the spring of 2014.
