NEW HAVEN - Ground was broken October 22 on the "Cutler Building" project, one of three projects that are part of the Ninth Square Phase II development. Phase II will complement the public/private partnership that began with Phase I in the early 1990s. Phase I was the first major mixed-use project to be undertaken downtown in its conversion of abandoned commercial space to residential space. Phase I added 335 residential units, approximately 50,000 square feet of retail and over 600 parking spaces. Phase II will add another 221 residential units with a mix of affordable and market rate, as well as 138 parking spaces and 25,000 square feet of renovated commercial space. The project is funded in part through a $13,166,154 grant from the state's Department of Economic & Community Development (DECD).
This project will combine the historic Cutler Building at Church and Chapel with the surrounding building that wraps around on both streets. The first floor will be maintained as retail, with 17,000 square feet opening up to the Green. The upper five floors will be renovated into 83 units of market-rate housing: 37 efficiencies, 33 one-bedroom and 13 two-bedroom units. Total project cost is $15 million.
