Mystery Building on Broad
Here's some potential development news to tide you over until we are clawing over each other to sing the chorus to "Hook" tomorrow night.
Found these renderings on a site for the Bildner Group for a project on Broad St across from the mall. It's listed as a retail opportunity on the DSSD site but I've never heard or seen anything else about it. The architecture is kind of non-descript, but I like the idea of putting that space, currently fenced in lots, to use. Tweak the scale and the design and they might be on to something.

This is where Finance Board member Joe Tarzia plans to store his hate for all things Malloy between meetings.
Tarzia seems an angry dude. I always get the impression from his comments that if he had his way the town would be one big senior citizen center. Maybe if young people voted in the same size block as seniors we'd have someone who cared about young people moving out of the area or helping young professionals get established in the area.
Tarzia's anger acknowledged, that building would not hold it all.
This rendering is from a proposal that never got any traction and was shelved a long time ago.
The Urban Redevelopment Commission controls that parcel, but there haven't been any serious proposals for it lately.
Anon, that's good. That building would be way out of scale for that block.
