Here’s What’s Coming at Burtis and Cherry
|
Construction is underway at the corner of Burtis Avenue and Cherry Street, with completion for the new housing project targeted for early 2027. The mixed-use development will include 25 residential units and 400 square feet of commercial space, spread across two multi-family buildings and four townhouses. The plan was approved the following November 2022, following development by the Planning & Zoning Commission of new “inclusionary zoning” regulations. “In 2021, the commission adopted inclusionary zoning regulations for our downtown commercial zones to try and incentivize builders to build multi-family affordable housing,” Town Planner Sarah Carey told NewCanaanite.com during an interview Tuesday at Town Hall.
