Project Description
The West Broadway Commons, at 175 Colony Street, is a joint venture project of UWCRC 2.0 and All Saints Anglican Church.

The West Broadway Commons will provide 110-unit, mixed-income apartments, with over 3,000ft2 of street-level commercial space.

The project embraces cultural diversity and social inclusion and has several priority objectives:

increase the number/quality of available rental units in the West Broadway neighborhood
provide a minimum of 28 affordable rental units
commit to the inclusion of barrier free suites
offer a fully visitable building with a minimum of 10% barrier free suites
animate the street level with vibrant commercial activities

The building features welcoming and programmable common area and amenities with extraordinary views, for residents and visitors. Common areas include a warming kitchen, a multi-purpose room & lounge, a gym and a space that allows for smudging.

The total projected cost of the building is $28.5 million. The Joint Venture is in the process of securing a mortgage for $22 million and has specific plans for funding from impact investments and various grant programs of $3.5 million. To complete the project, we require an estimated $3 million in donations.
