A pair of developers have filed plans with the BPDA to spend $8 million to convert the former Harborlights Nursing Home at 804 East 7th St. in South Boston into 31 condos.
The nursing home's owner shut the 89-bed facility in 2018.
Developers Christopher Anderson and Stephen Nios say the revamped three-story building would house mainly studio apartments, with four two-bedroom units and three one-bedroom units. Four of the units would be sold as affordable.
Anderson and Nios are proposing 31 parking spaces in a garage.
The building would gain a new brick facade.

Do we have enough that we can convert some to general housing? I figured the need for nursing homes was going to skyrocket soon due to aging Boomers.

Nursing homes have space available thanks to covid but my Dad was in a nursing pre-covid and I am so happy he died right before it.

just what the masses need. Cram the proletariat worker bees into ever-smaller spaces. As long as they have a bike rack and plenty of craft beer they will dutifully serve their masters, who, living in one bedroom units, serve the overlords.
Is there an overabundance of studios in Boston?

I love my studio. I also love how you complain but don't offer what you'd like to see instead.
