35 Harvey Street
Homeowners Rehab Inc. (HRI) renovated 35 Harvey Street, an existing affordable housing development in North Cambridge, located just off of Massachusetts Avenue near Alewife Linear Park and the Minuteman multi-use path.
The work involved converting 16 single-room-occupancy (SRO) units with shared facilities into 12 enhanced SRO housing units with private baths and kitchens. Additionally, the historic facade was restored in consultation with the Cambridge Historical Commission.
Other work included improvements to the exterior, the addition of a site manager’s office, common area upgrades, and an updated resident meeting space. The project was designed to meet Enterprise Green Communities (EGC) certification.
