288A Bradford Street- The Town purchased 288A Bradford Street (a parcel containing 1.7 acres, more or less, and described in a deed recorded with the Barnstable Registry of Deeds in Book 35493 Page 299) for both open space and affordable/community housing development with approval at Annual April Town Meeting in 2022. Site Readiness was completed by the Town in 2025, including the demolition and clearing of the existing structures. The site is located in the N zoning district and includes approximately 29,000 sf of Buildable Area located within the southern portion of the parcel, closest to Bradford Street.
