$88M Brighton Senior Housing Completed 

2Life Communities, in partnership with the City of Boston and the Boston Housing Authority, celebrated the completion of the J.J. Carroll House. The project, located at 130 Chestnut Hill Ave in Brighton, MA, redeveloped 64 public housing units into 142 modern, energy-efficient apartments for older adults and persons with disabilities. The redevelopment includes 114 deeply affordable units supported by Section 8 vouchers and 27 affordable units through Low-Income Housing Tax Credits.  

“I will keep fighting for funding at the federal level to help grow our housing supply and make building more spaces like this one in Massachusetts easier,” said Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren. “It will take continued partnership among the federal, state, and local governments and private investments to meet our housing needs in Massachusetts, but we have the leadership and the will to get it done”   

The $88.3 million project is funded by various organizations, including the Massachusetts Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities and MassHousing, showcasing a collaborative effort to enhance public housing accessibility.
