From the meeting
At its October 26, 2026 hearing, the Zoning Board of Appeals scheduled review of New England Heritage Properties, Inc's plan to build a 205-unit mixed-use development at 41 Hurd Street. The petition seeks variance relief for ground floor uses, entrance requirements, motor vehicle access, and parking. This is a private development signal, so the buyer is the project team rather than the city.
The next conversation is with the developer about design, engineering, and construction needs tied to the pending zoning decision.
