Commons at Forest Hills Start; Twenty-Two Liberty Models

JAMAICA PLAIN—Demolition work has started on what will become the 283-unit Commons at Forest Hills Station: "It's located on a 2.8-acre site at 3593-3615 Washington Street just up from the Forest Hills public transit stop in Jamaica Plain. The project site is a short distance from the Forest Hills transit station and across Washington Street from a lot for buses owned by the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority." [Biz Journal]

SEAPORT DISTRICT—The condo models for the newish Twenty-Two Liberty are pretty swanky: "The models — each about 2 feet by 4 feet, with glass ceilings so viewers can peer into the miniature upscale residences — don't stop at 2-inch wooden chairs and 8-inch tables with elaborate runners. They feature several 3-inch, flat-screen televisions that actually work." [Globe]
