With construction financing from Needham Bank, Procopio Cos. has broken ground on redevelopment of a Haverhill property as 290 apartments.
The Beck complex will be built on the former Ornsteen Heel factory property at 31-35 Railroad Ave., overlooking the Merrimack River next to the MBTA’s Bradford commuter rail station.
Boston Andes Capital provided equity for the project, Middleton-based Procopio Cos. announced this week. Needham Bank granted an $88.5 million construction loan, according to mortgage information compiled by The Warren Group, publisher of Banker & Tradesman.
The project includes a new 1,700-square-foot riverwalk which will be donated to the city of Haverhill.
The project received a nearly $2 million in MassWorks infrastructure grant which will be used for road improvements and underground utility relocation.
Completion is scheduled for April 2025.
