Description
Come join City staff and consultants for an important neighborhood update about 221 Mount Auburn Street, Riverview Condominiums, including the structural evaluation of the building, potential street closings, and next steps for the demolition of the building.
Representatives from the City will be available to share information and answer questions. The City is assessing the structural analysis of the main building and has hired an independent engineering firm to review the existing studies.
Background Information
In 2023, structural deficiencies were identified in the nine-story building at 221 Mt Auburn Street, the Riverview Condominiums. During exploratory work for roof and drainage repairs, engineers discovered that the building was not built as originally designed.
To reduce the weight in the building, all residents moved out by the end of 2024. After evaluating various repair options, the Condo Association has concluded that fixing the building isn’t feasible, and it will need to be taken down. The City is working closely with the Condo Association on reviewing the situation and planning for demolition of the nine-story main building.
