A pair of developers have filed plans with the BPDA to spend $8 million to convert the former Harborlights Nursing Home at 804 East 7th St. in South Boston into 31 condos.
The nursing home's owner shut the 89-bed facility in 2018.
Developers Christopher Anderson and Stephen Nios say the revamped three-story building would house mainly studio apartments, with four two-bedroom units and three one-bedroom units. Four of the units would be sold as affordable.
Anderson and Nios are proposing 31 parking spaces in a garage.
The building would gain a new brick facade.

What's nursing home inventory like these days?
Do we have enough that we can convert some to general housing? I figured the need for nursing homes was going to skyrocket soon due to aging Boomers.
Nursing homes have space
Nursing homes have space available thanks to covid but my Dad was in a nursing pre-covid and I am so happy he died right before it.
Studios
just what the masses need. Cram the proletariat worker bees into ever-smaller spaces. As long as they have a bike rack and plenty of craft beer they will dutifully serve their masters, who, living in one bedroom units, serve the overlords.
Is there an overabundance of studios in Boston?
I love my studio. I also love how you complain but don't offer what you'd like to see instead.
