SCCC_quote

WBUR recently covered the coming return of the Shattuck Child Care Center to Boston's Mattapan neighborhood. The beloved community resource will be integrated into the ground floor of Brooke House, a new affordable senior living community that 2Life is developing.

The project is part of Olmsted Village, which expands upon and benefits extensively from the successful redevelopment of the first 42 acres of the Boston State Hospital campus. Utilizing the final 10 acres of the campus, Olmsted Village includes two 2Life projects, Brooke House and Treehouse at Olmsted Village (in partnership with the Treehouse Foundation). Development partner Lena New Boston, in turn, is creating a variety of wealth-building home ownership opportunities for moderate- and middle-income families.

Brooke House will also provide a home for the Harvard Street Neighborhood Health Center, a primary resource for comprehensive community-based healthcare services.
