A former Exxon station in Station Square is becoming the city’s second compressed natural gas station with the help of state funding announced this week.
The station, located near the T station at the edge of the Smithfield Street Bridge, is currently under construction. It will be owned by Desdemona Holdings LP and operate under the American Natural Retail brand.
Desdemona Holdings received a $372,300 grant and $248,200 loan to help complete the project. Desdemona is a wholly owned subsidiary of Cleopatra Resources LLC, a New York-based energy company with local offices near Homestead.
A timetable for completion was not given.
