**Construction to Restore Affordable Housing Begins at Historic Warren Hall**

To read the full press release, click here: https://www.schochet.com/News/construction-to-restore-affordable-housing-begins-at-historic-warren-hall-building

Construction and restoration has begun on affordable housing at historic Warren Hall, following the closing of financing, a collaborative effort between Allston Brighton CDC (ABCDC), Schochet, Mayor’s Office of Housing at the City of Boston (MOH), Community Economic Development Assistance Corporation (CEDAC), MassHousing and the Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities (EOHLC), with private sector equity provided by R4 Capital and Dorfman Capital.

Warren Hall, built in 1879, is a historically significant structure in Brighton Center with 33 apartments on upper floors to be converted to 35 units and 6 first floor commercial bays to be converted to 3 commercial spaces and 2 residential ADA-compliant apartments. According to Brighton Allston Historical Society, the space was used for a multitude of functions, including political rallies, weddings and briefly as a rock club where The Doors performed in 1967, then converted into housing in the 70s.

The 4-story masonry building was originally financed through HUD and subject to regulated rents. After the expiration of the program’s mortgage, affordability wasn’t extended by building ownership and, over the years, critical repairs were delayed, leaving the building in disrepair. Tenant organizers urged housing developers and local organizations to intervene to protect health and safety of the residents. Through a collaboration between ABCDC, Schochet, MOH and CEDAC, the building was purchased in 2024 with the goal of repairing the site and reintroducing affordability.

Schochet President and CEO Richard Henken said, “For more than 50 years, our mission at Schochet has been to own and manage communities that are not only affordable but offer a quality of life that people are proud to call home. We are honored to partner in this important preservation effort and are grateful to the Mayor, Allston Brighton and our elected officials for including us in this landmark project.”

The scope of work at Warren Hall, totaling over $10 million, includes selective demolition, full interior rehabilitation and exterior upgrades.

Residents at Schochet’s Riverside Towers Apartments, in partnership with Jonathan Rose Companies , recently enjoyed a fun-filled Field Day and Health Fair focused on wellness, connection, and community.

Thanks to a fitness grant from Molina Healthcare and the coordination of our resident services team, residents spent the day enjoying activities including co****le, horseshoes, croquet, bocce, giant Jenga, and lawn Connect Four while also connecting with local organizations and service providers. Representatives from Molina Healthcare, CHA PACE , Neighborhood PACE , the Arthritis Foundation , Medford MA Coa , Mystic Valley Elder Services the Medford Health Department , and the were on hand to share valuable resources and information.

One of the highlights of the day was a special visit from the Mayor of Medford, who stopped by with her dog, joined residents for a game of co****le, and took time to visit the community garden.

With approximately 40 residents in attendance, along with support from the Fresh Pond team, the event was a wonderful opportunity to promote health, build connections, and bring the community together. Thank you to everyone who helped make the day such a success!

Residents at Retirement Housing Foundation's Binnall House Apartments in Gardner, MA (managed by Schochet) recently enjoyed a Rock & Canvas Workshop hosted through MassHousing's TAP Program and led by Blanca Sierra De Price.

The creative afternoon gave residents the opportunity to relax, paint, socialize, and express themselves through art in a fun and welcoming environment. The workshop was a wonderful way to bring residents together, and everyone had a great time showing off their creativity.

Here are a few photos from the event!

Residents at Retirement Housing Foundation’s Capitol Towers Apartments in Hartford, CT (managed by Schochet) recently came together for a special Mother’s/Women’s Day celebration filled with connection, conversation, and a little self-care.

The afternoon included lunch, desserts, refreshments, and music, creating a relaxed space for residents to spend time together and celebrate one another.

Following the meal, residents participated in a self-care activity that encouraged both creativity and relationship building through nail painting and press-on nail sets. An open discussion led by the Resident Service Coordinator focused on the importance of self-care, with residents sharing the different ways they care for themselves and support their well-being.

Each resident in attendance also received a gift bag with donated costume jewelry, and several lucky winners took home self-care raffle prizes including lotions, bath salts, face masks, bath supplies, thermoses, and purses.

It was a meaningful afternoon centered around community, kindness, and taking time to care for yourself and each other.

Schochet Companies is proud to be a Silver Sponsor of the 2026 New England Regional Service Coordinators (New England Resident Service Coordinators, Inc.) Conference.

NERSC plays an incredible role in our industry, supporting service coordinators who work every day to connect residents, especially older adults and those in affordable housing, with the resources they need to live safely, independently, and with dignity. From healthcare access to community programming, their work strengthens the heart of our communities.

Being part of this conference is a great reminder that property management is about more than buildings. It’s about people, connection, and care.
We’re especially proud to celebrate one of our own, Phoebe Shigley, on receiving the Excellence in Service Award for Resident Advocacy.

Phoebe’s dedication, compassion, and commitment to residents are exactly what this work is all about. We are incredibly proud to have her as part of the Schochet team and to see her recognized for the impact she makes every day.

We’re grateful to support organizations like NERSC and to celebrate individuals who make such a difference.

Tiny understood the assignment… again.

Tiny is back in style at Retirement Housing Foundation’s Capitol Towers in Hartford, CT, managed by Schochet. The community’s favorite four-legged resident is showing off a custom spring look handmade with love. From the soft pink trim to the floral details (and that iconic hair), Tiny is fully embracing the season.

Safe to say, Tiny is setting the bar pretty high for spring fashion this year.

A recent spring day at Retirement Housing Foundation's Seabury Heights (managed by Schochet) in Worcester, MA brought a chance to celebrate Earth Day in a way that felt just right.

Residents gathered to plant vibrant flowers in new planters, now welcoming everyone at the patio entrance and near Building 1. Once the refacing of Building 2 is complete, more planters will be added to continue the look throughout the community.

Others pitched in with grabbers, helping tidy up the surrounding areas and give everything a fresh start for the season. Meanwhile, the maintenance team set out benches so residents can relax, take in the views, and enjoy the warmer days ahead.
