CUMBERLAND – Hay bales
and staked black plastic, the tell-
tale signs that a project is about
to get started, have taken up resi-
dence at the corner of Mendon
Road and Broad Street.
Planning and Community
Development Director Jonathan
Stevens confirmed that developer
Thomas McNulty has recorded
his final plan and that the mixed-
use project has all of its permits
and is ready to proceed. The
development was first proposed in
its original form all the way back
in 2007.
The Breeze reported last August
that McNulty was on the verge
of a final plan for the property,
which includes 23 residential
units, 11 in one building and 12 in
the other, and 4,500 square feet of
commercial space on the ground
floors.
The companies behind the
project are Macklands Realty
(McNulty) and J.H. Lynch & Sons,
both of Cumberland.
