Landmarks Commission to weigh proposed demolition on Chestnut Avenue in Jamaica Plain

The Boston Landmarks Commission will take up a demolition delay application for a Jamaica Plain property at a virtual hearing Nov. 10. The commission said the property has no historic protections.

BOSTON — The Boston Landmarks Commission will consider a proposed demolition of a property at 226-228 Chestnut Ave. in Jamaica Plain at a virtual public hearing Nov. 10, the commission said.

The commission said it has received a complete application for the property under the city's demolition delay ordinance. The hearing will be held on Zoom beginning at 6 p.m.

According to the commission, the property does not have any historic protections. If the commission invokes the demolition delay, it can hold off demolition for up to 90 days, the commission said. Once that period expires, the property may be demolished.

The commission said it is accepting public comments on the application, as well as on other demolition delay applications, and invited the public to share what they know about the property.
