Developers outline office concept for 1100 Boston Turnpike; commission discusses wetlands handling
Summary
Applicants presented a concept office building for 1100 Boston Turnpike, saying wetlands created by halted construction would be filled and recreated elsewhere; presenters plan to subdivide the parcel into three lots and noted design and parking considerations.
JR Russo and T. Coon presented an informal concept plan for an office building at 1100 Boston Turnpike at the June 14 PZC meeting. Dr. Christina Elias, a local dentist, expressed support for an updated office space and the design team's New England-style building concept.
Presenters said wetlands which formed during halted construction would be filled and recreated in another area of the parcel. They described the current proposal as the first cut of a parcel they expect to subdivide later into three lots. The commission and applicants discussed design details, north-facing windows favored by the prospective tenant (Dr. Elias), parking and visibility from the street to preserve marketability.
The discussion was informal; no application was filed and no formal vote was taken. The minutes record the conceptual nature of the presentation and the commission's feedback on design and wetlands handling.
