Hart has his eye on Worcester’s Main South neighborhood, even from the other side of the country, in Los Angeles.Â
Hart, a Worcester Polytechnic Institute graduate and trustee, became a major landowner in the neighborhood by first buying the 24-story Sky Mark Tower in October 2019 for $28.8 million, and then adding a trio of properties just around the corner on Chandler Street, including one long-vacant building that doesn’t take a lot of imagination to see becoming loft apartments. Hart has said little about his plans for the neighborhood, but his success elsewhere speaks for itself. TruAmerica, which he founded, touts 43,000 units worth $10 billion under management.
