A New Chapter at Factory 52: Townhomes Coming Summer 2026

|

We’re excited to share the next phase of growth at Factory 52: brand-new Factory 52 Townhomes are coming Summer 2026 and are currently under construction.

This milestone marks an important step in the continued evolution of the former U.S. Playing Card campus in Norwood. Most recently, it represents the redevelopment of the former Multi-Color Corporation (MCC) building site, which has been cleared to make way for this next residential addition.

From the beginning, Factory 52 has been about reimagining historic industrial space into a vibrant, mixed-use destination. As the campus has grown—bringing together apartments, dining, retail, and year-round community activations—our long-term vision has continued to unfold. The introduction of townhomes is a natural progression of that vision.

Expanding the Residential Experience at Factory 52

The new Factory 52 Townhomes will offer an elevated residential option for those seeking additional space and privacy—while remaining fully connected to everything the campus has to offer. With construction already underway, the project is actively taking shape as the next chapter of residential growth at Factory 52.

Residents can expect:

• More square footage with multi-level living
• Added privacy with direct-entry layouts
• A true neighborhood feel within the Factory 52 environment

Walkable access to dining, retail, and community amenities

These townhomes are designed for individuals and families who value comfort, flexibility, and proximity to a dynamic mixed-use campus.

Purposeful Redevelopment of the Former MCC Site

The transition of the former MCC site reflects our ongoing commitment to thoughtful, intentional development. Every phase of Factory 52 has balanced preservation with progress—honoring the site’s history while preparing it for long-term growth. The townhomes represent the next step in strengthening the residential fabric of the campus.

What’s Next

We will be sharing pre-leasing details in the coming weeks, along with more information about floor plans, finishes, and features.

Factory 52 continues to evolve, and we are proud to be building what’s next in Norwood. Stay tuned for more updates as we move closer to Summer 2026.
