Two New Buildings Change the Look of Downtown Pittsfield

February 1, 2013

The Onota and The Howard

A $12 million redevelopment of the Howard Block and the Onota Building, (both prominent fixtures of downtown Pittsfield), will increase the supply of downtown market-rate rental apartments by about 39 new units over the next two years. Street-level commercial space will also be available.

The redevelopment of the two buildings has been financed as a public-private partnership between Allegrone Real Estate, the city, state and federal governments.

Ian Rasch, director of development at Allegrone Real Estate is interviewed by Berkshire Trade & Commerce about the on-going project.
