Two developers have proposed replacing an old flooring concern and two vacant lots on Curtis Street between Chaucer and Saratoga street in East Boston with a pair of four-story buildings with a a total of 29 residential units and 16 parking spaces.

In a filing with the BPDA, Seth Williams and Jim Grossmann say their $10.9-million proposal will revitalize the property. Its location near two Blue Line stations and several bus lines means less parking is needed, they say.

They hope to begin construction this summer and finish up by the end of 2022.

Please check out the vast tracts of triple deckers in the area sometime. Also the swaths of brownstones in some neighborhoods.

I'm very familiar with that neighborhood and its mainly Latino. Are you implying they are not a welcoming people? I haven't found that to be the case.
