The 59-unit St. Aidan’s project, sponsored by the non-profit Planning Office for Urban Affairs, Inc. and assisted by the Town of Brookline as well as other public and private entities, combines the preservation of a historic church building through adaptive reuse; the preservation of open space, including a specimen copper beech tree, through conservation easements; and the creation of 36 new units of permanently affordable housing.

The site is located at the intersection of Pleasant, Freeman and Crowninshield Streets in North Brookline. The existing St. Aidan’s church building will be adapted for nine luxury units. Fourteen market-rate units will be built in two townhouse buildings along Crowninshield Street, with seven three-bedroom duplexes over seven one-bedroom flats. A multifamily building, facing Pleasant Street and ranging from three to five stories in height, will include 20 lower-income rental units and 16 moderate-income condominiums. Parking will be accommodated in an underground garage.
