			Plans were being finalized in 2025 for redevelopment into 1200 mixed-income apartments. The project is set to include a 13-story hotel, a new academic building and gym for Salem Charter Academy School, a harbor walk, playgrounds and more. The project is expected to take 5-9 years and will not disrupt the flow of business in Shetland Park. Redevelopment is expected to generate over 1,000 union jobs as well as hundreds of jobs once construction is complete. A water taxi to the Salem Ferry as well as a shuttle to the Salem train station is also in the works. As of 2026, negotiations are still underway.
