BHA was established by the Mayor and City Council in October of 1935 in accordance with the provisions of General Laws, Chapter 121, secs.
The federal public housing program dates back to the initial occupancy of the Mary Ellen McCormack (formerly named Old Harbor) development in May of 1938.
State legislation in 1948 initiated the state-aided public housing program.The Federal Housing Choice Voucher program (Section 8) was established by the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, which was written to help address the issue of rising housing costs.
Both programs have become an integral part of the government's commitment to meeting basic housing needs.BHA is managed and controlled by an Administrator who is appointed by and serves at the pleasure of the Mayor of the City of Boston.
