All of the projects sound like a parking nightmare...
- 163 one- and two-bedroom apartments, below-ground garage offering 107 spaces
- 145 studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments, the plans show that some of the current open space at the property would be preserved for use by residents.
- 108 studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments, parking garage would include 62 parking spaces and a semi-automated, two-level car stacking system

Sounds fine to me, honestly. We're never going to get robust and well-funded public transit here unless people actually USE it here. The developments are right on a bus line and right by the commuter rail. If the companies building them see demand for folks without cars to rent, the fewer parking spaces the better

It's too bad that they'll likely all be controlled by major companies and under very little regulation on what they charge for rent.
Other than the required % of low cost housing, this won't have much of an impact on rent prices.

Inclusionary zoning hasn’t passed yet, so these developments will all be market rate. It makes me sad.
