The Worcester Planning Board has unanimously approved a revised definitive site plan for The Cove, a mixed-use development in the Polar Park ballpark tax district, cutting the planned project from 13 stories to seven.
With the main development delayed yet again, the secondary one cut in half, and the third development proposal only committed to a small phase, the City might have to expand the tax district again to pay for its stadium debt, pulling away resources for other government services.
A $3-million property deal between the Worcester Redevelopment Authority and developer Churchill James that will clear the way for the construction of a 13-story tower in the Canal District is set to close Dec. 1, said Chief Development Officer Peter Dunn at Friday morning’s WRA meeting.
