Amy Lowell

65 Martha Rd , Boston, Massachusetts 02114

Amy Lowell was built in the mid 1975 as part of the well-known Charles River Park community. It is located near the TD Bank North Garden in Boston's historic West End, and is in walking distance to the North End, Government Center, Mass General Hospital, and Beacon Hill.

Originally designed by architect Victor Gruen, his concept was based on the ideas of French architectural visionary Le Corbusier, who advocated building towers in a park setting without streets, creating a self-enclosed community. Walking through the winding paths of Charles River Park is a quiet refuge from the city. Leave the car! Food, shopping, restaurants and dry cleaning services are one block away.

Community amenities include: on-site management, 24 hour emergency maintenance, laundry facilities, community room, library and sitting room, and a landscaped courtyard.

Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC)

Since this property has received funding in part through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, a certain number of units are set aside for lower income households. Households must earn either less than 50% or 60% of the area median income (depending on the set-aside option chosen by the property owner) to qualify for these units. Rents in these units are capped at a maximum of 30% of the set-aside area median income (adjusted for unit size). Some rental units in this property may not be subject to LIHTC and therefore have higher rents and no maximum household income requirement.

Section 236

Apartment communities that participate in the Section 236 program are required to ensure that their units are only available to families with incomes at or below 80% of the area median income. Rents at participating communities must be approved by HUD.
