Boston's newest real estate pilot program aims to stimulate office-to-residential conversions to tackle both downtown's rising commercial vacancies and the citywide housing shortage. Launched in October 2023, the "Downtown Office to Residential Conversion Pilot Program" offers up to 75% in property tax waivers for up to 29 years, significantly benefiting those revitalizing Class B, C, and D commercial assets. It's a promising step toward addressing Boston's housing crisis. I'm hopeful that, in addition to pilots like this one, our current administration will focus on simplifying the zoning process and offering incentives for sustainable projects to further attract developer investment. The first pilot project, revitalizing a 145-year-old building on Franklin Street, received funding last week, offering a glimmer of hope for Boston's real estate future. #BostonRealEstate #HousingCrisis #UrbanRevitalization #SustainableDevelopment
