About

NOVO Riverside Commons is a multi-family residential development located at 292 & 294 Baker Avenue in Concord, Massachusetts. Spanning approximately 10.2 acres within the West Concord district, this Chapter 40B project is designed to enhance local housing stock through the construction of two new multi-family residential buildings. The buildings will both have below grade parking levels with wood-framed construction above. 294 Baker will be 97 units with 37 Parking spaces in one below grade parking level. The project is engineered with a focus on environmental integration and resident wellness, featuring 70% open space, a 1,160-linear-foot public access trail, and proximity to the Assabet River.
