Mixed-Use Development at 120 South Broadway Moves to Second Sketch Plan Review Following Board Feedback
The Planning Board reviewed a sketch plan for a mixed-use commercial residential development at 120 South Broadway. The project aims to redevelop a former motel site, incorporating street-oriented buildings, a centralized boulevard entrance, and pedestrian-friendly amenities. Board members provided feedback on site circulation, parking adequacy, the amount of pavement versus green space, and the proposed connectivity to adjacent properties and the Greenwich Cemetery. There was a general preference for concentrating vehicle activity within the site and emphasizing pedestrian activity along South Broadway. The applicant will revise the plan based on comments, focusing on functionality, green space allocation, and parking calculations, with a second sketch plan review anticipated.
Planning Board Seeks DRB Input on JW Hemingway Development Height and Visual Impact Concerns
The Planning Board reviewed a site plan application for the JW Hemingway development, proposing 12 residential units and a small commercial space. Concerns were raised regarding building height, especially in relation to the historic racetrack, and potential impacts on viewsheds and the surrounding area. The board discussed the PUD's specifications, the site plan review process, and the need for further information, including elevations and landscaping details. A decision was made to seek advisory opinions from the Design Review Board (DRB) and potentially the city historian, focusing on the visual impact of building seven, massing, scale, and landscaping from key street frontages. The board also debated the necessity of certain site connections and the allocation of internal space, particularly regarding parking and green areas. The applicant agreed to provide additional documentation and address concerns about the site's layout, circulation, and aesthetic integration with the historic racetrack.
