Environmental Notification Form 780 Morrissey Boulevard - 2 - GENERAL PROJECT INFORMATION PROJECT DESCRIPTION EXISTING SITE Describe the existing conditions and land uses on the project site: The Site is located at 780 William T. Morrissey Boulevard on multiple parcels consisting of approximately 78,877 total square feet of land (1.81 acres) (“Site”). The Site is currently an underutilized surface parking lot and vacant restaurant and is bounded by Freeport Street and Morrissey Boulevard to the West, a surface parking lot to the North, Interstate I-93 to the East, and the Ramada Inn to the South. Refer to Appendix A for a site location map. There are no known wetland resources located on or immediately adjacent to the project site. According the most recent Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the proposed limit of work of the project is not located within a mapped 100-year flood plain (Appendix A). According to the latest edition of the Massachusetts Natural Heritage Atlas, 14th edition, the subject site is not located within a priority or endangered species habitat (see Appendix A). A small portion of the site (about 0.10 acres) is located within 250 feet of the Mean High Water mark as shown in the Existing Chapter 91 Aerial Exhibit in Appendix B. The existing project site is a paved surface parking lot, a single building, and some areas of grass and trees. The existing impervious coverage is estimated to be over 90%. Existing elevations vary from an elevation of approximately 12 feet Boston City Base (BCB) in the northwest corner of the existing parking lot to approximately 21 feet BCB in the southwest corner of the site in front of the existing restaurant. Please refer to the Project Maps provided in Appendix A and the Existing Conditions Plan (No Build Alternative) provided in Appendix C. PROPOSED PROJECT Describe the proposed project and its programmatic and physical elements: NOTE: The project description should summarize both the project’s direct and indirect impacts (including construction period impacts) in terms of their magnitude, geographic extent, duration and frequency, and reversibility, as applicable. It should also discuss the infrastructure requirements of the project and the capacity of the municipal and/or regional infrastructure to sustain these requirements into the future. The Proponent proposes to develop one (1) building of varying heights containing a 5-story portion and a 6-story portion (“Building”) totaling approximately 163,885 gross square feet that will contain two hundred and six (206) residential units, residential amenities and one (1) level of garage parking at ground level. The Proponent will hire a general contractor (“Contractor”) to oversee construction of the Building. The proposed residential units will contain a mix of studio units, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units. There is one level of structured parking that contains 123 spaces, with an additional 13 outdoor spaces, a total of 136 spaces. Environmental Notification Form 780 Morrissey Boulevard - 3 - The parking level will be accessed from Freeport Street. Loading and delivery, residential move-in and move-out loading, and trash and recycling pick-up will take place within the exterior parking area at the north end of the site. Additionally, the exterior space at the north end of the site is designed to accommodate a potential future connection to the proposed DCR/MassDOT Neponset River Greenway multi-use path extension from Freeport Street, with connections to Dorchester Shores Reservation, Tenean Beach, and the waterfront. The Proponent has met with DCR and MassDOT to conceptually review the future connection and will continue to work with those agencies as the design progresses to accommodate the connection. Based upon early conversations with DCR/MassDOT, the construction of the multi-use path extension is expected to occur concurrently with the Project. The space at the south end of the site will be landscaped and is anticipated to contain some of the building’s exterior electrical and mechanical equipment. There is a proposed drop-off, courtyard and landscaped area along the Morrissey Boulevard frontage. Additional landscaping is proposed around the site and within courtyard and amenity spaces. Plantings and other landscape features will enhance the overall character of the site, creating a softer, greener environment for residents and the public. The proposed stormwater management controls will be designed in accordance with both the City of Boston requirements and those described in the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) Stormwater Handbook. In general, stormwater runoff generated as a result of the project is designed to be collected and treated through a combination of Best Management Practices prior to discharge to the existing City drainage infrastructure. The project will also result in an overall decrease in impervious area through the introduction of landscape and open space elements. The additional proposed pervious surface will reduce stormwater runoff and promote infiltration onsite. Based on initial discussions with the Boston Water and Sewer Commission, there is sufficient sewer and water infrastructure in the project vicinity to serve the proposed project. In addition, initial coordination efforts with private utility providers indicate that existing infrastructure is available in the vicinity. As described in further detail below, a small portion of the site is located within 250 feet of the Mean High Water line, totaling approximately 0.10 acres, and is under the jurisdiction Chapter 91 (Public Waterfront Act) – G.L. c. 91, ss 1-64, as amended, commonly called “Chapter 91.” The site area under jurisdiction is proposed to be parking spaces that are open to the sky. There is also a small landscaped area and a small portion of balcony area on upper floors of the building within the jurisdictional area, as shown by the Proposed Chapter 91 Aerial in Appendix B. In addition to providing open space elements, the project will also provide future convenient pedestrian access to the Neponset River via a planned connection to the proposed extension of the Neponset River Greenway currently under design by DCR/MassDOT. This connection to the riverfront (see Appendix B) will further enhance the pedestrian accessibility and access to the waterfront. The Applicant will work closely with MassDEP to permit the proposed project and obtain a Chapter 91 license following the conclusion of the MEPA process. Through Article 37 – Green Buildings, the City of Boston encourages buildings to decrease energy and water use and cost, improve the efficiency and useful life of building systems and infrastructure, and Environmental Notification Form 780 Morrissey Boulevard - 4 - reduce the burdens imposed by buildings on city services, the environment, and public health.

  • Codman Square: History (1630 to Present), Turmoil (1950-1980)
    Codman Square: History (1630 to present), Turmoil (1950-1980) and Revival (1980-2000): Factors which lead to Racial and Ethnic Placement, Racial Segregation, Racial Transition, and Stable Integration By William J. Walczak Introduction The study of the history of a community can reveal the role of geographic, topographical, social, cultural and technological forces in the development and change of communities in the United States, and what brings them together and pulls them apart. The neighborhood described in this study – Dorchester – is interesting as a subject, for its history is nearly as old as America itself. The town of Dorchester was settled in 1630, and was a farming community for nearly 250 years before developing into a suburban, then urban, area. Yet to summarize Dorchester as a rural to suburban to urban neighborhood is to oversimplify. Dorchester contains as many as 36 sub-neighborhoods whose differences may not be detected by a casual passerby, but are very obvious to residents. This paper focuses on a collection of sub-neighborhoods which come together at a point of geography known as Codman Square, located in the geographic center of Dorchester. Codman Square is a fascinating place. The center point of the central Dorchester neighborhood, it has nearly 50,000 individuals. It is made up of people from fifty nations, with socio-economic and social differences ranging from low income Caribbean immigrants to working class African American districts to middle class professional neighborhoods of mixed races and lifestyles, to extremely impoverished Latino residents of housing projects. These various slivers of community today constitute a vibrant, transient, occasionally violent area which has undergone dramatic changes over the past 50 years, and has made tremendous improvements over the past 20 years after having hit bottom in the late 1970s.
