South Boston Neighborhood Development

The primary mission of South Boston Neighborhood Development Corporation (South Boston NDC) is to address the displacement of low- and moderate-income South Boston residents by creating and preserving affordable housing. South Boston NDC also provides quality-of-life programming and economic development to increase community engagement. Our current project will transform the former St. Augustine's convent into affordable senior housing. Our impact includes: ● Affordable Housing: South Boston NDC is currently housing approximately 171 low- and moderate-income earners, consisting of seniors, families, veterans, and working individuals. ● Economic Development: South Boston NDC supports economic development by providing assistance to local small businesses through its management of the South Boston Chamber of Commerce. ● Quality of Life: South Boston NDC addresses environmental issues through the creation of green space and community gardens and providing greater access to fresh produce and nutrition information with the South Boston Farmers Market. South Boston NDC has also retrofitted several of its properties in order to reduce costs and energy use for residents, to improve their living environments, and to mitigate the environmental impact of our portfolio.
