Winn Launches Update to Low-Income South End Apartments

The Castle Square Tenants Organization (CSTO) and WinnDevelopment have begun work on a $40.1- million effort to modernize Eva White Apartments, a 102-unit low-income housing community for seniors and people with disabilities in Boston’s South End. The property is adjacent to the 500-unit Castle Square apartment complex.

Along with a substantial renovation of resident apartments and the creation of new amenity areas, the project entails new onsite health services and an extensive Deep Energy Retrofit.

The Boston Housing Authority designated CSTO and WinnDevelopment as joint venture developers in February 2018, but economic conditions and the pandemic delayed the project. CSTO became the 99% owner of Eva White Apartments last December after securing financing.

“With the start of work on this long-awaited effort, the relationship between CSTO and our company has reached a new level as an industry benchmark for creating true partnership between owners and residents,” said WinnDevelopment president & managing partner Larry Curtis.
