Webster 5 Receives AwardCascap is thrilled and proud to announce that Webster 5 was selected by the Cambridge Historical Commission to receive an historic preservation award. On May 22nd 2008 the Cambridge Historical Commission held it's 12 annual Preservation Recognition awards. Project Manager Malik Aziz was presented with the award which recognizes Webster 5 as an ‘Outstanding Achievement in Historic Preservation.’ Located just outside of Porter Square, Webster 5 is an ideal location for families and individuals alike. It is Cascap's newest affordable housing development project. Nine new condominium units have been developed in the old VFW building on Massachusetts Avenue. What was once a a fire house, a police station and, for a short time, a municipal library is now home to some very lucky individuals and families. The units have been sold by lottery system via the City of Cambridge to income eligible applicants. The building includes two, two-bedroom family units, three one-bedroom units and the remaining four are studios. Local architect Eric Ammondson and contractor Dan Baker of Construction By Design worked with the Cascap development team to turn this vacant building into a thing of beauty and utility. |
