CityOfBoston Official An official website of the City of Boston

This is the website for the City of Boston’s new Planning Department, which launched on July 1. The staff and many responsibilities of the Boston Planning & Development Agency have moved to the Planning Department of the City of Boston including planning & zoning, urban design, development review, and real estate divisions. Please excuse any misalignment you may see on our site as we transition to the City. Learn more

Nine new buildings contain residential, office, hotel, retail and civic uses, with ancillary parking. Four of the buildings will be primarily residential, three will be primarily office and one will be primarily hotel. Each of those buildings will contain retail uses on the lower floors and two of them will also contain civic uses on the lower floors. The ninth building will be entirely dedicated to civic uses (Institute of Contemporary Art). PDA amended in 2007 to allow "Research Center" use.
