[Massplanners] [External] Re: Examples of new, small two-story mixed use buildings

[Cousineau, Christine]

Hi Daniel,

This is a very nice example of a two-story mixed-use building designed to fit within the Dennisport character and offering 24 units of housing, 6 of them affordable.

On the powerpoint, the architects say they obtained a 5-0 decision from the Dennis Historical Commission on 2/7/22 for "negative determination" to declare existing building "significant historic structure." How did they get around this?
And now the fully permitted site is for sale? https://comrealty.net/properties/development_opportunity_fully_approved_site_with_documentation/​

Best,
Christine

Not built yet, but fully permitted before I retired. Gave them 2 years to start given interest rates.

Hi all,

I don't recall seeing any such posts recently.

I was curious if anyone has seen or been part of permitting (or saw construction) of any new, smallish two-story mixed-use buildings?

It's a great way to get at some missing middle housing units to fit within a small downtown area.

Hoping to find some examples!  Any address or other information (street/town) or reference point would be helpful.
