Avalon North Station Tops Off

Dec 07, 2015

Last Wednesday, executives from AvalonBay Communities Inc. and John Moriarty Associates placed the final beam on the 38-story luxury residential tower, Avalon North Station, bringing a new vibrancy to Boston’s North Station and a new elegance to the city skyline.
 
“Avalon North Station is a celebration of smart-growth, sustainable design and contemporary urban living,” said Scott Dale, AvalonBay’s Senior Vice President for Development. “These new apartment homes will help in the transformation of the North Station area and is yet another example of our commitment to the city of Boston.”
 
The $250 million development, located next to TD Garden and North Station, is also being hailed for filling an existing void in Boston’s bustling urban fabric.  When complete, the area’s new residents will enjoy easy access to many of the city’s great neighborhoods and attractions. Avalon North Station will create new connections between the West End, the North End and the Rose Kennedy Greenway.
 
The sleek, 38-story tower, which has been designed by CBT Architects, will consist of 503 residential units, offering studio, one, two, and three bedroom apartment homes. This new mixed-used apartment building will offer first-class amenities, including a state-of-the-art fitness center, Wi-Fi café and lounge, communal meeting and workspace, bicycle repair and workshop and a sky lounge and rooftop terrace on the 35th floor with unobstructed views of the Boston Harbor and Financial District. Additionally, there will be 219 parking spaces.
 
Avalon North Station residents will have direct access to MBTA green and orange subway lines as well as the northern commuter rail routes. A two-story public arcade will serve as a pedestrian connection between Nashua Street and Causeway Street, considerably enhancing the pedestrian environment around the TD Garden and North Station. In addition, significant pedestrian and safety improvements at nearby intersections and extensive landscape and hardscape improvements will be made to the area bound by Nashua Street and Lomasney Way. The construction of Avalon North Station is expected to be completed in 2017, with occupancy in late 2016.
