Leachmore Point To Be Called Eleven West Broadway

Well, the people have spoken, when we announced earlier this year (see New South Boston Condos at Leachmore Point) that Pappas Enterprises was planning the development of a small, luxury boutique, condo development above the Red Line Broadway T-Stop, the anticipated name, Leachmore Point, received boos and hisses. Based on recent conversations with representatives from Pappas, the name will be changed, to the delight of many, to Eleven West Broadway.

Eleven West Broadway (formerly known as Leachmore Point) will break ground in March 2008, and speed through a condensed construction cycle. No preconstruction units will be sold according to Pappas, once the condo development is complete, units will then be opened up for sale.

Eleven West Broadway is slated to feature 64 high-end condos. The condo development will completely redesign and renovate the Broadway T-Stop (sounds good to us), and following suit with Pappas’ new vision for a better Boston, the building will be LEED certified (green), much like their newly completed Macallen Building across the street.

Initial design drawings that were released earlier in the year are being reworked, so stay tuned for more changes on this exciting new development in northern South Boston.

Comments

  1. Any updates on when construction is going to start on this building?

  2. Boston Condo Guy says

    This project will eventually be built, it just needs a developer to build it. Pappas, who originally was slated to do this project has shifted focus onto another project across the street, and will let another firm (at least for now) attempt to pursue Eleven West. Long story short, there’s no line in the sand at this point, and more than likely, it is coming down to availability of developer level financing in order to get this project going (much like individual Buyers are experiencing more stringent lending practices, developers are too).

  3. Thanks for the quick reply, is the project across the street First First, or is there another one Pappas is working on?

    Pappas owns the vacant lot adjacent to the Cornerstone (including rights to the Cornerstone as well). Construction has not yet begun, but planning is well underway.
