The owner of 1420 Dorchester Ave., until recently home to a 7-Eleven, has filed plans with the BPDA to build a four-story, 41-unit residential building with 33 underground parking spaces and a tree.

The BPDA plans a May 25 meeting to discuss the proposal.

Plans by David Gordon, whose City North Development owns the nearly half-acre lot, show a split between one- and two-bedroom units. The plans do not specify if they will be rented as apartments or sold as condos.

The building will have ground-floor retail space. Just three weeks ago, City North said the space vacated by that chain would be filled by a Richdale convenience store. The plans call for the new commercial space, of roughly 2,000 square feet, to be filled by a market.

In addition to planting a tree, the proposal calls for a small plaza in which "to host public art installations." Also:

"In designing the building, great care was given to respecting the area’s distinct conditions and location along Dorchester Avenue within the vibrant Fields Corner neighborhood. As a result, the Proposed Project has been designed and scaled to fit into the commercial streetscape, surrounding residential fabric, and bustling intersection of Dorchester Avenue and Adams Street. The building will offer a contemporary aesthetic appropriate in massing and design to the surrounding neighborhood context."
