The Gardens brings a vision of diversity and economic inclusion to a community at a turning point. As Boston Landing catalyzes new development across Brighton, the redevelopment of Faneuil Gardens represents a critical opportunity to build a more integrated and more inclusive community. The cornerstone of the Gardens’ vision is the preservation and expansion of affordable, family-oriented housing stock in Brighton. We replace and improve the long-term affordability of the 254 existing state public housing units at Faneuil Gardens with 351 units across six buildings. The Gardens improves the ability of residents to access nearby McKinney Park and a central green space, playground, and expansive community center provide gathering spaces for residents from all buildings. Our design emphasizes walkability, cycling, and connectivity to Boston Landing Station and major bus lines.
