The Paragon project in Hull, MA is a new construction residential mixed use development located on Nantasket Beach in Hull. The project encompasses 180,375 SF over four stories and includes 132 units of market-rate housing. The building is constructed with three levels of wood framing atop a single-story steel podium, a common and efficient design for coastal developments that require structural resilience and aesthetic flexibility. Site amenities include a custom boardwalk-style decking system that nods to the property’s seaside character and a landscaped outdoor pool area designed to serve as a central gathering space for residents.
Prior to construction, the site underwent rigid inclusion ground improvements to ensure soil stability and long-term performance. The building envelope features durable and low-maintenance materials including Hardie fiber cement siding and high-performance Intus windows, complemented by commercial-grade aluminum storefront systems. This development contributes significantly to Hull’s coastal housing stock, offering modern, energy-efficient residences with contemporary amenities in a vibrant beachside community.
