Boston Planning Advances City’s First Hotel Under Net Zero Carbon Zoning
The Boston Planning Development has recommended approval of Boston’s first hotel under Net Zero Carbon Zoning. To be known as The Allston, the seven-story, 96-key project at 393 Cambridge St. was one of two lodging projects okayed by Boston Planning earlier this month.
As part of the developer’s mitigation commitment, the Allston project will improve the public realm with new landscaping, sidewalks, street trees, a new raised crosswalk and pedestrian connections, according to Boston Planning. The project would be built on a site currently occupied by an Advance Auto Parts store.
At 371-401 D St., DGH Hotel Partners plans to build a 438-key property across from the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center. The property would be located near the Aloft and Element hotels, also developed by DGH. The plan approved by Boston Planning would also modify the existing layout of the Element Hotel to add more rooms.
