WORCESTER, MA — A proposal to redevelop the Table Talk headquarters in Kelley Square will head to the Worcester Planning Board on Wednesday. The proposal calls for 77 units in a seven-story building, which would be the first development planned over two phases.

The project, dubbed the Table Talk Lofts, would be a mix of affordable and market-rate housing. Developer Boston Capital Development would also construct a new street — Spruce Street — which would be paid for with a MassWorks grant.

Table Talk will soon move its headquarters into a new manufacturing facility on a site near Gardner and Tainter streets.

The Table Talk Lofts is one of three major residential developments planned around the new Polar Park.

Construction is already underway on a new 318-unit building along Green Street replacing the former Lucky Dog Music Hall. The developer began demolishing buildings on the site this spring.

And just last week, the 228-unit SOMA residential building was announced for a parcel across Madison Street from Polar Park. The building is part of a larger redevelopment of a former Wyman-Gordan site in the Kelley Square area.

The Table Talk Lofts project will be up for discussion at Wednesday's Planning Board meeting.
