Coming soon to downtown Fall River, The Lofts at Hartwell Street will expand the growing Downtown Lofts community as the seventh property in the group with a modern residential development designed to support the city’s continued revitalization. The project is being developed on the former site of the historic Thomas Edison Light Station at 60 Hartwell Street—recognized as the location where Thomas Edison established one of the nation’s earliest electric lighting stations following the invention of the incandescent light bulb. Acquired by Cordeiro Properties in 2020, the site represents a unique blend of Fall River history and forward-looking redevelopment.

Construction plans for the six-story residential building began in early 2024 and include a steel structural framework with concrete floor systems designed for long-term durability and modern urban living. Upon completion, the property will feature 102 market-rate apartments with a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom floor plans. As the fifth addition to the Downtown Lofts portfolio, The Lofts at Hartwell Street will further contribute to the growth of a vibrant residential community in the heart of the city.
