A Newton-based real estate firm has proposed turning an office building in downtown Boston into 110 apartments, making it one of the largest projects in the city’s office-to-residential pipeline.
Dinosaur Capital Partners applied for a city tax break in connection with the proposed conversion of the top 10 floors of 31 Milk St., an 11-story building with a U.S. Postal Service location on its ground floor.
Dinosaur — co-founded and co-led by Scott Oran, who played a role in the Seaport District’s development during his time at Morgan Stanley — has signed a letter of intent to purchase those top 10 floors, according to the application. The USPS location is a separately owned commercial condominium.
