WinnCompanies Launches Redevelopment of Worcester Boys Club as Seniors Housing
WinnCompanies has begun work on the Residences on Lincoln Square, a $51-million project to transform the historic Worcester Boys Club building and property into 80 affordable apartment homes for adults 55 and older.
The WinnDevelopment effort will employ adaptive reuse techniques to preserve and renovate the 94-year-old building as 16 apartment homes and a variety of community spaces, while erecting a new five-story apartment building alongside it to house 64 new apartments. The two buildings will be connected on the ground floor by a single-story glass walkway. Completion is expected in the spring of 2026.
“Our legacy of development in Worcester dates back a half century to the company’s founding when Coes Pond Village became one of our first new construction communities,” said WinnCompanies CEO Gilbert Winn. “Having acquired this property in 2019, we couldn’t be happier to move forward with a development that will renew this historic structure and deliver much-needed affordable housing for seniors.”
