Mixed-Use Project Seen as Jump-Starting Masten District and Jefferson Avenue Renewal

Sinatra & Company Real Estate is teaming with public and private sector partners to bring new development to Jefferson Avenue in the Masten District. Sinatra is working with Creative Structures Services and People Inc. to construct a two-building, 84-unit mixed-use project on the west side of Jefferson, north of the Johnnie B. Wiley Sports Complex between Dodge and Northampton streets. Work on the $21 million project is expected to begin next spring with completion in early 2018.

The residential component will be a mix of affordable and market-rate apartments consisting of 68 one-bedroom and 16 two-bedroom units. Sixteen of the apartments are expected to be reserved for independent living individuals with development disabilities. The balance will be for a mix of incomes ranging from 30 to 130 percent of area median income.
