Greystar Breaks Ground on Its First Modular Massachusetts Project
Greystar has broken ground on the redevelopment of 437 Whittenton St. in Taunton, MA. The long-vacant Whittenton Mills site, which once held more than a dozen abandoned 19th-century buildings, was closed in December, with abatement and demolition beginning in January. Through modular construction, the site will be transformed into a 390-unit apartment community set to become the largest modular residential project in Massachusetts.
“As Greystar remains committed to helping increase housing supply in the Commonwealth, we look forward to continuing our work alongside the Taunton community to bring essential housing stock to the area,” said Ryan Souls, managing director of development at Greystar. “Delivered through our innovative Modern Living Solutions integrated platform, the Whittenton Mills project will be our first modular construction project in Massachusetts.”
Modern Living Solutions is a vertically integrated modular manufacturer within Greystar that is dedicated to redefining how multifamily housing is built. Although the method is new to Massachusetts, Greystar delivered its first modular housing community in Pennsylvania at the end of 2024 and has since built 1,734 modular units across the Northeast.
