The Abbey Group plans to build a 337,000-square-foot mixed-use development on Boylston Street in Boston’s Fenway neighborhood, just blocks from the famed ballpark near other recently built high-density projects.

The developer has filed plans with the Boston Redevelopment Authority for a project at 1282 Boylston St. to include 99,000 square feet of offices, 210 residential units and 15,000 square feet of ground floor retail space.

A goal of the project is to create flexible commercial space in an area of low inventory, according to the filing. The commercial space in the building could be divided for retail or office use. It can accommodate tenants from 7,500 square feet up to 99,000 square feet. As proposed, the building will offer ground floor space attached to an eatery to community groups "for the use and enjoyment of the neighborhood," according to the filing. The project is expected to create 600 construction jobs. The residential units are a mix of studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments "at a highly competitive rate in the Fenway marketplace," the filing states.

The site also has what the filing calls a "superblock" from Jersey Street to the intersection of Boylston Street and Park Drive. The Abbey Group plans to build a new street to connect Boylston to the alley between Boylston and Peterborough streets. This will help break-up the building’s massing, create another access point and moves vehicular traffic away from the entrance to adjacent 1330 Boylston, a mixed-use project built by Samuels & Assoc.

The site is currently a surface parking lot that Abbey Group inherited from the Red Sox in exchange for a parking lot the developer owned on Van Ness Street across from Fenway Park. Under the terms of the agreement, the Sox were responsible for demolishing a McDonald’s restaurant, which once sat on the site. The Abbey Group sat on the site as a surface lot to get some income from the property as the company waited out the recession to begin construction.
