Spring Condos - an Abbreviated History
-Fulkerson Street was named Ninth Street until 1949 when it was renamed to honor George Fulkerson of the United States Army.
Keeping the same number – 71 Fulkerson Street, Cambridge – began construction in 1920 by the Revere Sugar Refinery with an estimated cost of $2,500 as permitted in May of that year. Due to a fire at the original plant within the kilns, the original three story frame building and three other buildings- including the barrel manufacturing company R. H. Meyers & Co. of Cleveland, Ohio all burned. The Revere Sugar Refinery found the position of the railroad platform at the edge of the property convenient and worthy of rebuilding the Cooperage site and it visually emerges on the 1930’s Bromley Atlas.
Condominium conversion began in 1984 and the first deeds were transferred in 1988. The newly named Spring Condominiums, a then fifty-year-old warehouse building, began its new life as an emerging location residential property. The complex was renovated and combined to include the four townhomes at 63-69 Fulkerson and the large building at 71 Fulkerson that housed 34 units.
A parking lot with reserved unit spots and some units enjoy private use outdoor spaces that nestle between their building and the neighboring building. Certainly evoking an urban feel, with the hints of the industrial neighborhood’s past make the condos at 71 Fulkerson unique. Now over 30 years old, some units in the building are ripe for renovation and boast quite an opportunity to create a fresh space for a savvy buyer or investor in Cambridge’s biotech mecca- Kendall Square.
