Bill McGonagle
Longtime Boston Housing Authority Administrator Bill McGonagle, who rose from janitor to the top of the authority, has died.
According to WBUR, McGonagle was 67.
McGonagle helped transform the BHA over his 10 years as its leader, and helped kick off a plan to rebuild its properties with unique public-private partnerships that simultaneously aim to maintain the total number of affordable units on its land and add thousands of units of new, market-rate housing. The authority selected Corcoran Jennison Assoc. of Dorchester, in partnership with California developer SunCal, to pilot the idea at its Bunker Hill public housing complex in Charlestown in 2016.
