Herb Chambers Honda of Boston

The Herb Chambers Companies (the “Proponent”) proposes to develop a new Honda Brand auto dealership (the “Project”) at the location previously occupied by the J.D. Byrider and Westminster Dodge auto dealerships at 710-720 Morrissey Boulevard in Dorchester. The proponent's intent is to developer a category -leading, first-class new facility that will contribute meaningfully to the Morrissey Boulevard streetscape. The Project building will be contemporary in style, featuring a streamlined design. It is presently expected to be four stories high, with a maximum height of approximately 65 feet. The Project will contain approximately 112,600 square feet of building area, and will include showrooms, offices, service bays, vehicle storage, and customer amenities, including lounges. The preliminary plans indicate that the Project will be supported by space for approximately 222 automobiles located within the building (including inventory), and approximately 178 surface spaces outside the building. These preliminary plans may be modified through the permitting process and in light of input from the BPDA, elected officials, neighbors, and other stakeholders.
