Boston’s Old Colony Redevelopment affordable housing project has been awarded $25,000 in a cash grant and educational resources from Bank of America’s Affordable Green Neighborhoods Grant Program.

It was among 10 affordable housing projects selected, according to a statement. The award will be used to help Old Colony Redevelopment pursue LEED for Neighborhood Development certification.

"Through the very generous support of the Bank of America Charitable Foundation, [Old Colony Redevelopment] will see the transformation of vacant or underutilized land in thriving existing neighborhoods into walkable, compact developments," said Roger Platt, senior vice president, global policy and law at the U.S. Green Building Council. "The recipients have demonstrated a commitment toward strengthening their communities by providing healthy, affordable green housing to citizens with a range of income levels."
