ReyCon builds The Charley, 102-unit multifamily for Berkeley Investments

Brighton, MA ReyCon, one of Massachusetts’ fastest-growing general contractors, has completed The Charley, a 102-unit multifamily residential development for their client, Berkeley Investments.

Located at 46 Soldiers Field Place, The Charley is a 121,000 s/f project that broke ground in late 2023. Located between the Charles River and the Boston Landing neighborhood, the project features a bold and modern design by VMY Architects, offering river views from every studio, one-, and two-bedroom unit.

The five-story building includes a second-floor podium topped by five levels of wood-frame construction, built to LEED Gold standards. Sustainable features include solar panels, EV charging stations, and other green building components.

Designed for modern living, the community includes amenities such as underground parking, outdoor space, a fitness center, a resident lounge with co-working space, and a roof deck equipped with fire pits, grills, and televisions. 

The Charley is also transit-oriented, with direct access to the Mass Pike, proximity to Storrow Dr., and close to the MBTA’s Boston Landing Station.

“We’re proud and excited to bring The Charley to life and contribute to the continued growth of the vibrant Boston Landing neighborhood,” said Michael Reynolds, president of ReyCon. “This project came together through relentless effort, tight collaboration, and a shared vision. From our exceptional trade partners and the talented team at VMY Architects to our incredible clients at Berkeley Investments – The Charley is a testament to what’s possible through partnership, creativity, and open communication.”
