2016 - 2017PROJECT OVERVIEW
The Landing Apartments is a 174-unit mixed-use Class A apartment community located at 53 Commercial Street in Braintree, MA, just south of Boston. The development delivers studio, one- and two-bedroom apartment homes with ground-floor commercial space in a transit-accessible location near the South Shore Plaza and the MBTA Red Line at Braintree Station. Community amenities include a fitness center, resident lounge, outdoor amenity deck, package concierge and structured parking. The Braintree location places residents 20 minutes from downtown Boston via the Red Line and serves the southern Boston suburban Class A rental market with a contemporary mixed-use program.
OWNER’S PROJECT MANAGEMENT
A 174-unit, $36M ground-up mixed-use Class A community requires an OPM who can coordinate residential and ground-floor commercial sequencing, transit-adjacent permitting and Class A finish quality. Matt structured and negotiated the AIA contracts, ran the RFP and bid leveling process, managed the monthly requisition cycle, coordinated MBTA and town of Braintree reviews, negotiated change orders from a position of knowledge, and held the GC and design team accountable to the schedule and quality standards ownership required. The result: 174 Class A mixed-use apartments delivered to a lease-up standard.
