POAH, Dorchester Bay EDC Break Ground on Mixed-Use Affordable
Preservation of Affordable Housing (POAH) and Dorchester Bay Economic Development Corporation (DBEDC) have broken ground for Columbia Crossing, a mixed-use development at the site of the historic Dorchester Savings Bank Hall on Columbia Road in Upham’s Corner. The POAH/DBEDC team was selected through a competitive, community-driven RFP process.
The 48-unit affordable apartment building will be built in the current parking lot behind the bank. The development will include 3,500 square feet of commercial space. The bank hall space at 568-574 Columbia Rd. will be refurbished and expanded into a modern exhibition space.
The Columbia Crossing development is supported by funding from both public and private sources. “The creation of 48 new homes in Uphams Corner, featuring the adaptive reuse of the Dorchester Savings Bank building, will ensure that Dorchester residents continue to have affordable options to call home,” said Juana Matias, Massachusetts Secretary of Housing and Livable Communities.
