Causeway Development

We are Causeway

What sets Causeway apart as a real estate advisor, investor, and development company is our commitment to building around a shared community vision. As a result of our advisory and development work, we have helped communities attract public investment in infrastructure, bring market rate housing to formerly blighted areas, integrate affordable housing near employment and transit centers, convert brownsfield sites to economic engines, deliver local boutique retail to historic downtowns, add affordable childcare centers near employers, and get non-profits closer to the populations they serve. Simply put, the community vision creates a cause, and we help find the way forward. While here, we hope you learn about some of our work, and always feel free to be in touch.

"We have worked with Causeway Development for the past six years as they have transformed two vacant properties in our downtown Washington Street Historic District into JM Lofts and the Granville, tow multi-family market rate apartment buildings with ground floor retail. They have been responsive to our input throughout the permitting, design, and construction process; built extremely high-quality, well designed buildings; continued to be good stewards post-construction as long term owners; and perhaps most importantly worked with the City to support locally owned small businesses in the retail spaces. As a result, these developments in our downtown has been overwhelmingly positive, bringing new vibrancy, life, and market rate housing to our downtown."

“Throughout the permitting process Causeway was proactive and responsive to both Town and neighborhood concerns. They continue to communicate very well with the Town, and we are appreciative of their approach!”

Julie Mercier,

Town of Reading

"In my role as Deputy City Manager, I have worked with Traggorth Companies for the past ten years as they have permitted and built 149 mixed income apartments, transforming a vacant, blighted former industrial district into a thriving neighborhood; acquired and invested in a key downtown building with 19 restricted affordable apartments over ground floor retail, and most recently permitted a project along the Mill Creek that will have 38 affordable apartments with 5,000 square feet of open space. I do not hesitate in recommending them as developer and property owner. They are thoughtful and responsive in their development work, with a track record in well-designed high-quality buildings. They also provide long-term stable ownership with continued investment in their properties"

Ned Keefe,

City of Chelsea
