Broadway Corridor (Ball Square, Magoun Square, South Medford, and western Winter Hill)

The cities of Somerville and Medford are working together to create a zoning study for the Broadway Corridor, extending from Ball Square to the crest of Winter Hill. The study aims to address challenges related to split parcels and conflicting zoning regulations along the corridor, particularly after the opening of two MBTA Green Line Extension T stations in 2023. The study intends to establish a unified urban design vision for the Broadway Corridor, recommending zoning and policy changes to streamline and coordinate regulations between the two cities.
