Downtown Urban Revitalization Plan
BSC worked with the Southbridge Redevelopment Authority to help them prepare an urban revitalization plan to redevelop their downtown area. Over the years, the town has been able to preserve much of its historic building stock, resulting in a well-defined downtown area with rich and unique character.
The resulting urban renewal plan, in accordance with M.G.L. Chapter 121B includes the following:
- Housing
- New trailhead park for the bike trail
- Roadway improvements
- Parking structure to provide access to the underutilized floors of abutting buildings
- New fire station
- Riverfront park
- Preservation of historic buildings
- Streetscape improvements
