A group of artists reached a precarious point in their quest to save their Boston studios.
The 42 artists, who rent space at the Humphreys Street Studios in Dorchester, fear they will be displaced if an offer on the property is finalized. The artists had hoped to gain control of the studios through a partnership with two mission-driven developers, New Atlantic and Placetailor.
The developers planned to develop the property’s massive back lot and transfer ownership of the studio building to a nonprofit managed by the artists. The group submitted a $2.75 million offer in April
. They included a contingency that further environmental studies be made on the property since chemicals from an underground oil tank leached into the soil. But they found out last week that the property’s four co-owners had accepted a cash offer from another buyer, Kendall Capital LLC.

Plymouth wraps up multi-year beautification project
PLYMOUTH – New signs designating the boundary of the town’s cultural district mark the completion of a three-year project to spruce up downtown.
The Public Art Initiative, started in 2017, saw the completion of colorful murals, artistic furniture and historic public portraits of Plymouth’s rich past – all within a short walk of the center of town.
Festive and playful murals now grace walls that were once the target of vandals, and decorative benches, chairs and tables invite visitors and locals alike to sit down and enjoy their surroundings.
The town coordinated the project with the Plymouth Bay Cultural District and the Plymouth Area Chamber of Commerce. Private donations through a crowd funding platform raised $13,000, which MassDevelopment matched to make the work possible.
