The Dalrymple School is affordable housing for elderly residents (62 and over), while maintaining many of the former school’s historical features. The unit mix will include 4 studio apartments and 23 one-bedroom apartments.
This newly renovated property includes replacement of all major building systems, the installation of an elevator, the re-pointing of exterior masonry and the replacement of precast stone window sills. An existing school auditorium and its historic features will be preserved as a common area for resident activities and functions.
The development will also provide service options for tenants through EBCDC’s partnerships with the Winthrop Senior Center, the East Boston Neighborhood Health Center and the Winthrop Council on Aging.
