Haverhill Downtown Condo Developer to Remove Falling Windows

The Eagle Tribune reported that a downtown Haverhill condominium developer will be removing windows due to them falling off the building and onto the street, posing a significant safety risk to Haverhill residents and visitors.

Following an inspection by City Officials, Developers Angela and Sean Chen of Lotus Realty of Portsmouth, who plan to convert an old factory at 98-108 Essex Street into sixty-one condominiums, agreed to remove the windows immediately. This factory is next to Smith’s Tavern.

The Eagle Tribune reported that the Chens will be removing as many as 300 of the old windows from the building. The condominium project is currently old on due to the current real estate market, but the developers plan on completing the conversion.
