EOEA #6744 ENF Certificate October 26. 1987 



The proponent has recommended two development alternatives 

 in the ENF. which should be analyzed, and compared with the No 

 Build Alternative. The proponent is also invited to evaluate 

 other alternatives that represent a reduction in scale or 

 massing . 



Within these primary development schemes, there are program 

 options that should be evaluated and compared. 

 Include : 



i . an analysis of the build alternatives with 

 and without the proposed activities 

 under the Charlestown Bridge; 



ii. an affordable housing option that satisfies 

 the goals established for housing in tidelands ; and 



iii. an assessment of the open space, public access, 

 and public amenities options. 



Traffic 



The scope for the traffic analysis will be the same as the 

 Transportation Access Plan, which is reguired by the City of 

 Boston. A copy is attached, and is to be considered a part of 

 this Certificate. 



It is also worth noting that the traffic analysis will be 

 based on the roadway conditions that will be expected after 

 completion of the Central Artery/North Area ( CANA ) project, even 

 though that project is not likelv to be completed before Tudor 

 Wharf. 



Parking 



The parking demand should be estimated. The assumptions 

 used to quantify that demand must be explained and supporting 

 documention should be presented. 



The EIR should show where the parking demand can be 

 accomodated on site. It was mentioned at the Scoping session 

 that office users would be able to share spaces with marina 

 users, because these activities are noncontiguous. The EIR 

 should present a clear parking turnover analysis to show that 

 these uses don't compete for parking spaces. Consideration should 

 be given to the adequacy of the available parking, with and 

 without the surface parking under the Charlestown Bridge. The 

 status of the land under the bridge should be reported on. in 

 conjunction with a status report on the CANA project.
