The Fensgate Cooperative

Welcome to AFFORDABLE HOUSING in Boston! The Fensgate Cooperative Housing Association located
at 73 Hemenway Street provides high quality
affordable housing in a magnificent Beaux-Arts
building in the Fenway neighborhood.  

We use the Fensgate to refer to our building, our
community, and the cooperative corporation by which
we own the building.

Fensgate thrives as a diverse, cooperative community

working together to maintain this long-term, mixed-income, owner-occupied affordable housing as our home.

Want to know more?

If you are interested in  living in this co-op, please
complete an application and get on our wait-list
(prospective applicants are processed in the order
applications are received). The Fensgate co-op has
1, 2, 3 and 4 bedroom units in all income categories
(low, moderate, middle and market-rate).

Fensgate is a special combination of people from
all walks of life and incomes - including families,
educators, lawyers, artists, retirees, musicians
and more -who live together as neighbors with  
strong sense of community.
