Project Description

213 Chestnut Street, 344 Appleton Street, 188 & 190 Chestnut Street, and 207 Elm Street in Holyoke, MA are part of a coordinated redevelopment effort aimed at revitalizing underused parcels adjacent to the downtown area and the Holyoke Public Library. As part of the Library Commons Phase 2/Essex Village initiative, these sites are being transformed into a mixed‑use residential community with approximately 41 new and rehabilitated rental units, including affordable housing components and community‑supportive improvements. The project builds on previous neighborhood investments by preserving historic character, enhancing quality of life, and bringing previously vacant or deteriorated properties back into productive use within a walkable, transit‑oriented urban core.
