With the steelwork in place, the mixed-use development at 383 Commercial St., on the site of the former Rufus Deering Lumber Co., is moving forward quickly. The Hobson’s Landing development will include a 155-room Aloft Hotel, 89 condos, ground-floor retail and parking for 300 cars. Reger Dasco Properties is the developer. Housing units will range from $410,000 for a 1-bedroom to $595,000 for a 2-bedroom to $850,000 for a 3-bedroom apartment, according to the Hobson’s Landing website. There are also penthouse units. Reger Dasco Properties is a Portland-based partnership between Gordon Reger, principal of Reger Holdings in West Seneca, N.Y.; Demetri Dasco, principal of Atlas Investment Group in Boston; and Joseph Dasco, principal of Boulder Hill Development in Monson, Mass. Archetype Architects is listed as designer of Hobson’s Landing. Consigli Construction is the contractor.
