NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y. — Twining Properties has received site approval for the development of Pratt Landing, an 850,000-square foot mixed-use project, from the City of New Rochelle’s Planning Board. The approval, which concludes the entitlement phase of the project, allows for pre-construction demolition, environmental and other site work to begin.
Located about 25 miles north of New York City along the Long Island Sound, Pratt Landing will consist of 383 rental apartments, as well as 99 condominiums, a 150-room hotel, 40,000 square feet of restaurant and retail space, 845 parking spaces and multiple recreational spaces. Buildings will range from three to six stories in height. Robert A.M. Stern Architects and EDI International designed the project, which sits on roughly 11.5 acres.
The project will also feature a revitalized historic New Rochelle Naval Armory building, which will serve as an event venue and Armory Veterans Center (AVC). AVC will serve as a central hub for coordinated services, programs and community activities to veterans. The developer began stabilization work for the revitalization in April 2020.
Additionally, the project will feature a waterfront park that will allow access to the waterfront, which Twining Properties states is currently inaccessible, from downtown New Rochelle. The park was designed by landscape architect Mathews Nielsen Landscape Architects.
The development team will move to the next phase of closing on the land, with demolition work on the site to follow. An expected delivery date for the project has not been disclosed.
