About Davis Square Lofts
Community over Business
Davis Design / Development Corp. thoughtfully repurposed the former MW Carr and Comfort Pillow factories into the Davis Square Lofts Community. They have devoted over twenty years of effort to grow this lovely project into a creative development of nearly 100 units in 10 buildings of varied design and construction.
The units’ designs range from “soft” lofts to utilitarian / industrial units boasting exposed brick, radiant-floor heat, and a signature skywalk system, resulting in thoughtful design that merges old and new. Aside from the breathtaking architecture and a commitment to environmental sustainability, the designers’ intent is to foster a caring and inclusive community in a natural setting close to urban activities.
The project vision was conceived & built and continues to be managed by Davis Design / Development Corp.
The Lofts have utilitarian yet sleek kitchens true to the “loft feeling” that still caters to our modern needs. Kitchens are intentionally woven into the living areas, making them perfect for chefs who love entertaining.
Our fiberglass skywalks connect the buildings and provide a playful treehouse-feeling.
We take advantage of high ceilings by including mezzanines that offer visual dimension and differentiate living spaces. We laid polished concrete floors with radiant heating; in the winter, you’re sure to have warm feet! Tall windows create bright and airy spaces.
Our newest cast concrete building, 70 Howard Street, offers an aesthetically differentiating feeling nestled between brick buildings. The large balconies overlooking the bike path are a favored feature among the residents.
Our beloved fish pond is another favorite feature of the community, creating a friendly spot for chatting with neighbors or simply enjoying a bit of nature.
