One of the largest developments in Allston history will add 758 apartments, 110 condos and a 373,500-square-foot office and lab building to the 11-acre Stop & Shop Supermarket property bordering the Massachusetts Turnpike.
Boston City Councilor Michelle Wu is pointing to Stop & Shop’s proposal for nearly 900 apartments and condominiums at its 11-acre Allston property as an example of the city’s myopic approach to civic planning.
Another supermarket property owner is seeking to maximize the value of its real estate in Boston by replacing surface parking with multifamily housing.
