Title

2245-2255 Post Street (JFCS Holocaust Center) FMND

Description

The building located at 2245 Post Street contains the Jewish Family and Children’s Services (JFCS) Holocaust Center, which is a division of the nonprofit organization Jewish Family and Children’s Services (JFCS). Its mission is to ensure the lessons of the Holocaust are remembered and taught, fostering awareness of antisemitism, racism, and genocide while inspiring moral courage and social responsibility in future generations. The building at 2255 Post Street is vacant but previously contained a medical office. The project sponsor, JFCS, proposes to redevelop the entire project site. The proposed 2245-2255 Post Street project would demolish the two existing adjacent buildings on the project site and construct a four-story, approximately 60-foot-tall building (68 feet and 6 inches total, including rooftop mechanical equipment), with one below-grade level. The new building, which would extend over the entire project site, would be approximately 34,073 gross square feet in size, and would replace the existing JFCS Holocaust Center with a larger building that would include rooms for public exhibitions, a lecture hall, library, offices, large and smaller-group educational and conference spaces as well as the JFCS Holocaust Center's archives. The proposed project would include no vehicular parking. Project construction is anticipated to last approximately 21 months.
