MARLBOROUGH COMMUNITY COALITION VACANT LOT CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Marlborough Community Coalition partnered with Hoxie Collective to build upon the implementation of the neighborhood's Catalyst Plan (led by Christina Hoxie while at another firm). The conservation and development strategy studied land bank and other vacant properties throughout all five neighborhoods of Marlborough for both development potential and ecological sensitivity. 

The outcome of this study is the identification of four preliminary focus areas that hold multiple strategic opportunities to build upon nearby investment for housing and commercial infill development as well as identification of land that holds great potential for environmental restoration and habitat connection.
