Erin, the original Old Harbor Village had everything for children. Playgrounds, basketball courts, building basements had playrooms, lavatories, cooking classes (some of the old stoves are still in the basements), coin washers and areas to hang clothes in the basements as well. The home economics rooms were popular during WW2 teaching girls how to cook. Boy scout meeting rooms, and basement rooms for arts and crafts. All of this was left to rot as years went by. Drugs, crime and the type of element you'll hopefully not see again as a 3000 tenement monstrosity is built on acreage where and existing 1,027 units are currently built. Sad!

Your going to be offered a lot; child care, work training, classes, and the list goes on........they might be in operation the day the project opens....but you can rest assure with lack of training, budget cuts, government funding these extras will fall by the way side, In five years the project will look like plywood ranch. The 80,000 sq ft of retail space you all will be in constant competition with hundreds of people from outside the project. Competing for parking spaces from people outside the community that want to shop there is going to cause havoc.
The streets will always have traffic and the stores will always be overcrowded.. You won't be able to say "this is just for us".....there will be hoards of taxis cabs bringing people home from the project's supermarket,as well as, taking people home from outside the facility. All of this will cause quite a bit of congestion and exhaust. The project will be anything but quiet!! There pushing diversity down your throats.......Mary Ellen McCormick was all white till 1984, I remember the day when you sleep with the door unlocked. That's all I'll say about that!! SAD

Any updates on when construction will start? I see a lot of work being done around MEM that seems pointless if it is really getting knocked down. Makes me believe it is not happening anytime soon. Why fix things if the place will be demolished?

if I could change anything about Mary Ellen McCormick it would be the maintenance of each unit and lack of response for fixing things. And I would also change the buildings main door and make it so each building doesn't have to worry about the homeless and drug users using the hallways as there bathroom and area to use there drugs.

There are so many elderly residents who are house bound because they can't make it up and down the stairs of their apartments. Some have been on transfer lists for year's. We need to get those residents into elderly housing asap.

I thought after the demolition of Columbia Point housing project, the building of a huge monstrous housing development, you're intending on building, would not happen again. There's nothing special/quaint about 3000ppl cramped in a space originally designed for a little over 1000.

They had a Stop and Shop, Almay's, and a Zayre's at the Columbia Point project fifty years ago. The project was demolished. The crime rate was out of control. The store's had to close the shop lifting was so bad. The high rise buildings, and the congestion was ghetto!! Here we go again. MEM housing project was built by the Irish and Italian immigrants. Their craftsmanship was that of perfection. MEM does not have to be torn down, this is a political move by Mayor Walsh to get his cronies ( labor unions ) work. He owes them a big thank you, Walsh was head of the labor unions before they all voted him in as mayor.

Maryanne. I lived in a townhouse 5.5 rooms, turned basement into another bedroom/study for 35 years. Plenty of space!! Note many of the two bedroom apartments have a balcony/porch. When my grandparents moved in in 1936, the building basements came equipped with washing machines, clothesline fencing. There were nursery school, playrooms, and bathroom facilities in the building basements. Some of the buildings came equipped with stoves/sinks where cooking classes/home economic classes were taught to mothers. Twenty, if that, years later all the facilities were boarded up due to a lack of maintenance, personnel, and funds. It's called housing project plight! I expect the new housing project in twenty five years to look no different than any other housing project. A 3000 unit congested project is really not the way to "house" people. I though Columbia Point was end to all of this.

Anne, they are only building a housing project. Their starting off "grand", a year and half after opening I can only imagine that most of, garage included, amenities; stores, employment centers, vocational training sites will be boarded up. Again it's only a housing project, it's not Admiral's Hill.

This would be discrimination based on merit. Everyone is equal, there can be no preferential treatment for tenant longevity. Whether you've been on O'Callaghan Way thirty years or thirty days no one gets an apartment any quicker than anyone else based on merit. I lived in a row house for 35 years. I also know of third generation row house tenants whose family has passed down keys going back to the 1950's; on the same row house! We lived in a 5.5 room row house and turned the basement into a bedroom.

Rick, It's a hosing project..all I can see is another Columbia Point on the way! The garages will eventually have to be shut down. Again, it's not Admiral's Hill. It's a housing project and I'd bet they'd be drugs, theft, and the garages will need to be shut down. I doubt if the whole project will have resident parking stickers..lol..hence, the on street parking will be open to everyone. All the grand planning $$$ is for show! Two years into the "project" all these proposed plans; garages, stores, youth center, employment office, skills center, all this helps the developers raise more money for the construction of the project. Once it's built all that extra stuff shuts down do to: crime, lack of money, safety, not cost effective and subsequently you're left with a "housing project", nothing more! Once again, Mayor Walsh was the head of the labor unions. The laborer's voted him into office. The demolition/reconstruction of MEM is the Mayor's way of saying thank you. Giving them work/jobs.

Mayor Walsh before becoming mayor was the head of the construction unions. This whole demolition and reconstruction is a thank to the unions from the mayor. Does it really need to happen? Of course not. Just because the development is 80 years old? The current project was built like the Roman Colosseum!! Winn has been building housing all over the county...it's popcorn architecture. I'm sure Winn is happy with Walsh's decision. Sadly, most tenants are just followers....it's like they have no say. And they don't

When the development opened in 1936 many community resources were available.....the basements of most buildings housed playrooms, cooking classes, washing machines, after school rooms for children's activities....all of which became neglected through the years and now completely shut down....take a look at what went wrong before you rebuild!! The row houses are solid, lived in on for 25 years!! The project is 80 years old the best of materials were used and people had pride in its upkeep!!

I think it shouldn't take take that long to start the process 2020 or 2021 is a really long time you guys don't understand how it-feels living in the place. the homeless sleeping in the halls people breaking the mail boxes people fight in the hall at 4am when theirs people that do work. The drug use here people pass out in the hall not knowing if there dead or alive SMH no parking driving around 6 times just to find parking.

What part of the area does Phase 1 begin at? People would like to know when they have to move. It’s getting nerve wracking not knowing much. Thanks!

If I could change anything about Mary Ellen McCormack it would be maintence caring more about the damages within the building and apartments especially when having small children and infants around, seeing that I have stucko walls and children have been injured from they and housing refused to redo walls to better prevent asthma issues and safety from hurting themselves even after a doctors note was provided.

I think and it would be nice to consolidate all the veterans memorials refurbish them and create a much better veterans park. I think this would be a great idea

Architecturally speaking that would be an impossibility, but certainly a percentage of the units should have balconies. When they are going up that high it becomes attractive to have the views of the ocean, and rest assured, those may be the most expensive of the units. The park space around the buildings, I would agree is critical to the quality of life.

I think the people that are going to be living in the 55+ units should have washers and dryers in unit . its easier then carrying down to a wash room .

I am wondering what Winn is going to do about people subletting their apartments to other people that are coming in here and not on the lease . People have moved out to the suburbs and they are letting family members live in their apartments .
I have told this to BHA and I have seen nothing done about it .
Also I am 58 years old , with COPD on oxygen to breath and had a knee replacement last year and I live on the 3rd floor . I am unable to get out of my as often as I would like . I have been waiting 3 years for Senior Living , Would I be able to stay in MEM and be on a first floor or a bld I could exist in ? And My Daughter is staying with me for safety reasons would she be able to stay with me If she is on my lease ? Thank You
