Wood Partners building 261-unit community
Stoneham, MA Wood Partners is progressing with construction on a new community, Langwood Commons.
The three-building, 261-unit community is scheduled to open in March 2020. The property is located near Amazon, General Electric and Massachusetts General Hospital. The community is also located near the I-95 and I-93 corridors.
“Langwood Commons is an optimal location, combining proximity to first-rate employment with unparalleled access to nature and convenience to Metro Boston,” said Jim Lambert, managing director for Wood Partners. “This area has demonstrated demand for best-in-class apartment living and we’re excited to bring a high-quality Wood Partners community to the market.”
The new property will offer access to nature-based amenities and entry onto Rte. 93, creating a live-work atmosphere. Additionally, Langwood Commons is just minutes from downtown Boston, Logan International Airport and multiple freeways that provide access to the entire region.
The project broke ground in November 2018 and is the company’s twelfth project in the greater Boston area.
