Building Better

For over 125 years, Old Colony YMCA has been proud to help our neighbors all across Southeastern Massachusetts learn, grow and thrive. We look forward to continuously expanding the services we’ve been providing to the children and families in the Plymouth community, “America’s Hometown,” for more than 35 years.

REDBROOK, PLYMOUTH

In 2004, the A.D. Makepeace Company began working with the Town of Plymouth on plans for a new village off Wareham Road.  The pedestrian-friendly village will contain approximately 1,175 homes at a wide range of styles and price points, a full-service YMCA and community center, a village green, a small retail and office component for the convenience of the area, sorely needed assisted living for our elder population, and land allocated for use by the town for a school or other municipal purpose at no cost to taxpayers.

Equally important is the extraordinary land conservation opportunity this development provides.  Plymouth's innovative Transfer of Development Rights Bylaw enables the Company to place permanent conservation restrictions on some 1,600 acres of land, including valuable habitat and pristine forest.  From an ecological perspective, the proximity of this conservation land, which represents more than two thirds of the project site, to other protected property is important.   Combined, the result is 20,000 acres of nearly contiguous land in an area that environmentalists have long seen worthy of protection - all at no cost to or taxpayers.

The new village will include up to 90,000 square feet of commercial space on 400 acres of an overall project site of 1,320 acres and will be constructed over approximately 12 years.
