It was about a month ago that we loosed our Residential Heatmap showing 63 apartment and condo projects going up Hub-wide. It's time to update it already. We've added the likes of the Victor, a 286-unit apartment tower with 17,000 square feet of retail; the 18-unit 319 A Street; and the 14-unit condo at 70 Prospect Street in Somerville, which may very well mimic Manhattan's Flatiron Building in its design.

This largest component will have 103 rental units, including 35 affordable ones, as well as more than 16,000 square feet of commercial and retail space.
The five-building, solar-powered development looked all set to go until late last year, when yet another dispute (this one between developer John Rosenthal and the state over a lease for the site) derailed things.
This Eastie waterfront project will have 163 apartments, a restaurant on the ground floor, a water taxi landing and public access to the harbor (as well as 126 parking spaces). A larger version (rendered) would have put 224 units in the project, but was considered too big.

This 128-apartment redevelopment of an old charter-school building is brought to you by the same folks who built the luxury condo, The Clarendon.

The 100-unit building is part of Allston's so-called Green District, and will have greenery covering the roof so as to act as a a natural thermometer for the building.
The 79-unit, four-story building will also be part of the ballyhooed Green District of Allston.

This 187-unit, 28-story apartment tower broke ground in September 2011. It runs from studios to family-friendly three-bedrooms.
Holy god, this one's been controversial! The conversion of the old Blessed Sacrament off Hyde Park was supposed to lead to more affordable housing in JP; but has instead led to 32 condos that will run from $269,000 to $725,000—not exactly affordable for the neighborhood.
