These redevelopment efforts have improved the quality of life for current and future residents and secured Ships Cove as an important affordable housing resource in Fall River.

Blue Mountain Apartments Scattered Site Project, Boston, MA / 217 units

An ambitious landmark project, Blue Mountain Apartments is a 217-unit multifamily complex composed of 19 walk-up buildings built between 1910 to 1930 in the Roxbury neighborhood of Boston. The buildings were last renovated in the late 1980s through a combination of LIHTC equity and the Section 8 Rental Assistance program. NHPF’s acquisition of the property ensured the preservation of Blue Mountain’s affordability in a Boston neighborhood currently undergoing a significant period of gentrification. The substantial rehabilitation of the 19 buildings, scheduled for completion in 2022, will extend the useful life of the property and

expand the amenities on offer to resident while preserving buildings that the Massachusetts Historic Preservation Office and National Park Service have both determined to have historical significance to the Roxbury neighborhood.
