35 Harvey Street

35 Harvey Street Completed

Homeowners Rehab Inc. (HRI) renovated 35 Harvey Street, an existing affordable housing development in North Cambridge, located just off of Massachusetts Avenue near Alewife Linear Park and the Minuteman multi-use path. 

The work involved converting 16 single-room-occupancy (SRO) units with shared facilities into 12 enhanced SRO housing units with private baths and kitchens. Ten out of the twelve units are deeply affordable by serving households under 30% AMI while the remaining two serve households under 50% AMI. All units have project-based vouchers. 

Other work included improvements to the exterior, the addition of a site manager’s office, common area upgrades, and an updated resident meeting space. The project was designed to meet Enterprise Green Communities (EGC) certification.

Construction completed in late August 2024.

Existing site: a 16-unit former rooming house

Proposed: 12 enhanced SRO units with 2 common areas and on-site supportive services
