Cushing Square Revitalization
May 18, 2010
In coming weeks, Belmont?s Cushing Square will take another step toward revitalization with a new mixed-use project. ?We are working toward finalizing an agreement for the last parcel in the site plan," Oaktree Development's Gwen Noyes tells us. His firm has joined Smith Legacy Partners on the job. They're talking with neighbors and town officials about building 115 residential units and about 40k SF of ground floor retail on 85k SF in the heart of the square. Town planning coordinator Jeffrey Wheeler says he can't remember anything so big being built in Belmont in decades. Last month, work got underway to clean chemical contamination from the site, where one building has already been demolished. |
