Formerly the Bayberry Plaza (aka “Underground Mall"), the 3.65 acre site presents a great opportunity to create new housing in Orleans, MA. We seek approval for 29 residential units, all 1 and 2 bedrooms, and a repurposed mall structure into garage parking.  17 units are slated for rental and 12 for ownership.   

 

The site is ideally located at the intersection of Rt 6 and Rt 6A near the Brewster town line in an area of commercial properties. Currently, most of the vacant parcel is covered by asphalt.  We aim to reduce the pavement, utilize native plants to minimize lawn area, add solar arrays and construct energy efficient buildings. The top of the existing mall will remain a green roof and serve for recreation, events and perhaps an orchard.

 

There exists a dire need for housing on the lower cape and the Apartments at Orleans Plaza promises to provide modestly priced housing which can be  embraced by the entire community.
