Roxbury Group and Ethos Development Partners have joined efforts to rehab Lee Plaza and create up to 187 units of housing with a hope to complete both phases of the project in 2025. The cost to renovate the long-vacant high rises is expected to cost $79 million. The project will use $7 million in federal American Rescue Plan Act funds allocated to the city, approved by City Council in 2022. The project's first phase will add 117 affordable units for seniors on the second through 10th floor, and the second phase would include 60-70 market-rate apartments on the six floors above.
