The Madison Park Development Corp. has filed plans for a six-story residential building on a lot Warren and Crawford street in Roxbury that has sat vacant since the 1960s as a holdover from the Washington Park urban-renewal project.

All of the units – 54 apartments and 9 condos – would be rented or sold as affordable, according to the non-profit’s filing with the Boston Planning Department. Some 16 of the apartments would rented to people making no more than 30% of the Boston area median income, with the rest to people making no more than 60% or 80% of that amount. The condos would be aimed at people making no more than 80% or 120% of that amount.

The units would range from one to three bedrooms.

In addition to residential units, the building would have 2,000 square feet of ground-floor commercial space.

Madison Park says it is still figuring out the number of parking spaces, but that it is tentatively looking at 22 spaces in a lot on the three-quarter-acre parcel. The site is next to several bus lines and is about a half mile from the Four Corners/Geneva station on the Fairmount Line. Madison Park says it will provide indoor bike storage.
