(HRI), a local non-profit affordable housing provider, purchased from Lesley University 30 Wendell Street, a current tennis court, in November 2023 and 28 Wendell, a former dormitory and rental apartments, in June 2024. Located in the Baldwin neighborhood, the site is in close proximity to the amenities of the Massachusetts Avenue corridor, including shops, restaurants, and public transportation.
