A boutique hotel is proposed at Commercial Wharf

Urban Spaces proposed replacing a fire-damaged office building at Commercial Wharf with a four-story hotel of 35 to 45 rooms and a first-floor restaurant.

The proposal is relevant to the surrounding waterfront setting. A proposal does not establish approval, a construction timetable or a change in the value or view of a neighboring home.

A neighborhood story is context for the exact home.

An opening or a development proposal can change how people use an area. It does not establish a particular residence’s value, view or ownership rights. We connect the local context to the actual home and the alternatives you can choose.
