The Boston Planning and Development Agency’s (BPDA) board has approved most of the Fenway Corners project, a large-scale development that will bring eight new buildings and numerous retail shops to the Fenway neighborhood surrounding Fenway Park, according to Boston Business Journal.

This joint venture between WS Development, Fenway Sports Group (affiliated with the Red Sox), and local business owners D’Angelo family spans over five acres. The 2.1 million square feet of space includes lab and office space, housing units, retail locations, a daycare center as well as public open space.

The goal is to enhance pedestrian-friendliness in this area near the ballpark while remaining portion awaits approval pending completion of a neighborhood transportation plan.
