Under construction

35 harvey st, Cambridge

One of the last lodging houses in Cambridge, 35 Harvey Street, is undergoing a complete renovation thanks to funding from the Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities and the City of Cambridge. A longtime part of the CASCAP portfolio, the 1895 Mansard Victorian currently contains sixteen lodging rooms with shared baths. Following renovation, 35 Harvey will include twelve enhanced SROs, each with an individual bathroom and kitchenette. The renovation will allow us to increase supportive services at the building, with Heading Home providing case management to all 12 residents.

In addition to unit improvements, the scope of work will include accessibility upgrades including one fully accessible unit. The project will achieve energy savings through electrification of HVAC systems and additional insulation. Finally, we will restore historic elements of the façade, in consultation with the Cambridge Historical Commission. We anticipate the project will be complete in fall 2024.
