Fifty-seven separate permit filings landed on the city ledger for 1610 Worcester Rd between February 11 and May 7, 2026. This latest batch of paperwork extends a relentless construction rhythm that has turned a quiet stretch of South Framingham into a bustling development hub.
The sheer volume of activity at The Green at 9 and 90 signals a coordinated, multi-phase overhaul of the 1966 high-rise complex. Residents in the 01702 ZIP code are witnessing one of the most significant infrastructure pushes in the city's recent history, with work spanning electrical, fire safety, and general building systems.
The surge began on February 11, 2026, when applicant Angelo Vigliotta filed three electrical permits (BLDE) in a single day. Just weeks later, on February 25, a building permit application (Bldg) entered the system, followed by a fire alarm permit on February 26. These early filings laid the groundwork for the subsequent wave of approvals that would dominate the city's permit logs through the spring.
By April, the pace accelerated dramatically. Previous reporting highlighted how 65 permits flooded the single site within a 90-day window earlier this year, a trend that continued unabated. The latest data confirms that the modernization effort is not a one-off repair but a systematic transformation. As noted in earlier analysis, these filings point to a multi-million dollar investment in the aging structure. The pattern matches the broader surge dominating municipal filings in South Framingham's 01702 ZIP code.
This concentration of permits is highly unusual for a single address. Typically, such activity is spread across a neighborhood or city-wide over a full fiscal year. Here, the city processed a dense cluster of 57 applications in just 86 days. The work focuses on upgrading critical systems within the high-rise, likely addressing decades of deferred maintenance while modernizing units for current market standards.
Residents should expect continued construction noise and traffic along Worcester Rd as crews move through the remaining phases of this project. With the filing window closing in May, the next major milestone will likely involve occupancy inspections or utility upgrades as the physical work nears completion. The city will monitor the final sign-offs to ensure all 57 projects align with the initial building permit application.
