City of Salem Approves Redevelopment of Salem State’s South Campus into Housing
City officials in Salem, MA approved the redevelopment of Salem State University’s south campus into 340 luxury apartments to be developed by AvalonBay Communities and Winn Development Company, reported the Boston Business Journal. The decision marks the beginning of the school’s consolidation into one campus by fall 2027.
The approved apartments are the first phase of the Forest River Residences redevelopment of the campus, which will include up to 475 apartments. The school entered into a purchase and sale agreement in 2024 with the developers, and announced its consolidation into its north campus the following spring.
“After several years of collaboration with Winn Development, Salem State University, the City of Salem and its residents, and the Massachusetts Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance, we’re proud to celebrate this milestone,” David Gillespie, SVP of development at AvalonBay Communities, told the Business Journal.
