About this home
Rare opportunity to acquire 2–8 Bowdoin Street, Dorchester, a ZBA-approved 22-unit mixed-use development site in the rapidly growing Four Corners/Fairmount corridor. Approved for approximately 33,452 SF, the project plans call for 22 residential rental units, including 4 affordable units, along with approximately 2,400 SF of ground-floor retail/restaurant space. This transit-oriented development offers a strong opportunity for an investor or development partner to capitalize on a well-located site with significant entitlement progress already achieved. Situated on a prominent corner in a designated growth area, the project features zero-parking approval and benefits from strong visibility, neighborhood momentum, and municipal support. A compelling development opportunity in one of Dorchester’s evolving mixed-use corridors.
