MVC approves Stone Bank condos
Harbor View hearing continued to next week.
A courtyard would be added in place of several parking spots at a proposed development in Vineyard Haven.
The Martha’s Vineyard Commission unanimously approved the old Stone Bank project in Vineyard Haven, which will turn the historic fieldstone building, formerly the Santander Bank, into a mixed-use condominium and commercial business development.
The project is being proposed by Island developer Sam Dunn, who wants to renovate two existing buildings and construct five new buildings for a total of 11 condo units and six commercial units. The project would reduce parking from 35 to 19 spaces, and includes pedestrian pathways and a small courtyard. In total, the project would have 14 bedrooms.

The Dukes County Regional Housing Authority is offering rental assistance for those affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
In an email from David Vignault, executive director of the housing authority, he wrote that the rental assistance is being made possible through a grant by the Marthaâs Vineyard Community Foundation. Unlike a previous program, a renter will only have to provide âa good explanation of a COVID-related financial need and a landlord signatureâ for one monthâs rent, he wrote. âFurther need and possible use of a W-9 by a landlord may increase financial assistance to two or three monthâs of rent payment. All payments are made directly to the landlord.â
