WalkUP Roslindale Urges City Council to Act on Parking Reform

Today, WalkUP Roslindale submitted a formal letter to the Boston City Council urging adoption of the proposed zoning amendment to eliminate minimum off‑street parking requirements for residential development. Our letter explains why parking mandates are an outdated planning tool that force new housing to dedicate scarce land and resources to car storage, regardless of whether future residents need those spaces. Removing these requirements will allow housing to be designed based on actual resident needs and neighborhood context....

Comment Letter on 4301 Washington Street

Today, we submitted a comment letter supporting the proposed development at 4301 Washington Street in Roslindale. The Proposed Project strongly aligns with the objectives of the Squares + Streets rezoning initiative. Replacing a vacant building with 16 new dwelling units, three of which will be IDP units, on a transit-served parcel within walking distance of a broad variety of retail and service uses in the immediate vicinity, as well as Roslindale Square represents an appropriate and beneficial use of land....
