Boston’s Biggest Office-to-Apt Conversion | Boston News

Boston’s Back Bay is about to get a dramatic skyline makeover as the massive Park Square Building—once a towering office complex—prepares to transform into nearly 500 luxury apartments, making it the city’s largest ever office-to-residential conversion. Spearheaded by New York-based Vanbarton Group, the $410 million project aims to revitalize a once-struggling property that recently sold at foreclosure for just $96 million. With a proven track record in similar conversions—including a 600-unit project in NYC—the firm is betting big on Boston’s housing demand.
