Newton. November 21, 2011.

A potential mixed-use project at the Riverside MBTA station took another step last week as aldermen from Ward 4 docketed an item to establish a new zoning district for the proposed project.

According to the email and the group's website, the Ward 4 Aldermen met with the developer earlier this month to discuss the project.

In an email sent Sunday, the Riverside Station Neighborhood Coalition Steering Committee explains that adding the item to the Board of Aldermen docket is "an important milestone" in a process that started four years ago.
