Arx Urban

Arx Urban is a Boston real estate developer, advisor and operator focused on the next generation of housing. The firm describes itself as socially minded, technology enabled and generationally focused, caring about both a project’s community impact and its financial returns. It aims to build projects meant to stand the test of time and favors long-term relationships over short-term gains, with transparency for all stakeholders as a stated principle.

Its work covers several areas: repurposing underused sites through permitting and collaboration, investing in undermanaged properties or sites for future redevelopment, and managing assets with rigorous oversight and tenant input. It also consults for other ventures on financing, development, entitlement and disposition, and uses technology to streamline and automate operations. One example is a 36-unit workforce housing development in Dorchester built with robust community collaboration and a pioneering capital structure.
