After years of delays, the recent sale of 330 Rehoboth Ave. paves the way for the proposed Rehoboth Grand to be back on the docket for the city’s planning commission.
Under the name 330 Hospitality Group LLC, Bette Gallo, founder and president of Gallo Realty, and Don Lockwood, owner of Milton-based Lockwood Design and Construction, purchased the property from the family of J.J. Stein in January for $4.2 million.
The Rehoboth Grand was first introduced by Limitless Development, a branch of Lockwood’s Milton-based Lockwood Design and Construction, in January 2019. At the time, plans called for four stories, 90 rooms, an indoor pool, 44 ground-level parking spaces, 48 underground parking spaces, and retail and spa space. As proposed, the height would be slightly over 41 feet.
