"Together, we hoped for the future of the community, [we] united to create the ideas and the designs, and now we can build into the future."

— Joan Huyser-Honig, a neighbor on the naming committee

Created By Neighbors

HUB 07 was born out of the collective vision of the Boston Square community. Construction began in the Fall of 2022, transforming 1534 Kalamazoo Ave. SE into a two-story community hub.

Informed by extensive community feedback, HUB 07 was designed to reflect what neighbors wanted to see, hear, feel, and experience. Our purpose is to provide a welcoming, barrier-free space where people can thrive together.

Our Mission

Provide a vibrant and inclusive gathering space that nurtures connections, promotes wellness, and enhances the quality of life for the Boston Square community.

Through diverse services, collaborative partnerships, and a commitment to accessibility and barrier-free environments, HUB 07 ensures that neighbors of all ages can work, learn, gather, and grow together.
