As part of the redevelopment of The Street in Boston, the pond-facing overhang of the original structure will be modified to allow light infiltration. Additional outdoor gathering spaces such as asunken patio and a reclaimed pedestrian space at the original loading dock will also be activated for open-air experiences, dining and community programming.
BOSTON — Locally based firm WS Development has unveiled plans for the redevelopment of The Street, a retail property in Boston’s Chestnut Hill neighborhood. The centerpiece of the project will involve the repositioning of the three-story, 90,000-square-foot building at 27 Boylston St. to house new retailers and restaurants, as well as office space and outdoor communal areas.
