Brookline Celebrates Largest Affordable Housing Development in More Than 50 Years

Brookline celebrated a major milestone with the grand opening of 32 Marion Street, the town's largest affordable housing development in more than 50 years and a new senior housing community.

Developed by Brookline Housing Authority, the six-story community located 4 miles west of Boston replaces a 60-unit public housing complex with 115 affordable homes designed for senior living. Amenities include a fitness center, media and multipurpose rooms, an outdoor garden, and a sixth-floor roof deck.

The building reserves about 80% of its units for residents age 62 and older, with the remaining 20% set aside for younger residents with disabilities. To qualify, residents must earn no more than 50% of the area median income.

32 Marion Street reflects a shared commitment to creating stronger, more sustainable communities-where residents can thrive with stability, accessibility, and opportunity.
