The Residences at Brighton Marine, a $46 million TOD community located in Boston, will provide 102 mixed-income apartment homes for veterans. The project is a joint venture between WinnDevelopment and non-profit veteran network community Brighton Marine.

The seven-story building is combined with an adapted historic structure to form a campus with 11 studio, 47 one-, 33 two-, and 11 three-bedroom apartments. 11 of the units will be set aside for households earning 30% of the area median income (AMI), 59 units for households earning 60% of the AMI, and 10 units for households at 80% of the AMI. The remaining 22 units will be at 120% of the AMI. Also included are on-site clinical, behavioral health, and family services.
