Seventy-one separate permit filings landed at the Framingham building department in just 67 days, all originating from a single address on Worcester Road. This unprecedented concentration of paperwork has turned a quiet stretch of South Framingham into the city's primary construction hub.
The surge at The Green at 9 and 90 represents the largest infrastructure push in the 01702 ZIP code this year. Residents and city planners are watching closely as a 402-unit high-rise undergoes a comprehensive modernization that dwarfs all other residential projects in the area.
Data from the municipal records shows the pace of activity accelerating rapidly. By April 2, 2026, the site had already accumulated 69 filings, a number that climbed to 71 by early April. The filings cover a 300,000-square-foot footprint and include a major electrical overhaul, as noted in recent reports on the electrical system update.
This volume is not isolated to one trade. The filings span multiple disciplines, indicating a coordinated, multi-phase transformation rather than routine maintenance. Earlier tracking in late March highlighted 57 permits in a 90-day window, which quickly swelled as the project scope expanded. The density of these filings has led to coverage describing the site as a massive wave of building permits that has flooded the department.
The activity at 1610 Worcester Rd stands in stark contrast to the rest of the city. While developer Adam Glenn filed 23 permits across Framingham in a six-week period, that total remains a fraction of the output from this single high-rise. The Green at 9 and 90 effectively accounts for the majority of high-significance building activity in the 01702 area, creating a localized construction boom that has reshaped traffic and noise patterns on Worcester Road.
City officials and residents should expect continued heavy machinery and deliveries as the overhaul progresses. With the initial wave of filings already processed, the next phase will likely involve interior finishing and systems testing. Monitoring the building department log for new filings at this address will provide the best indicator of the project's completion timeline.
