Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont and New Britain Mayor Erin Stewart joined WinnCompanies executives as state and city officials celebrated the opening of an $85 million project that transformed a historic, long-vacant manufacturing complex near New Britain’s downtown into 154 apartments of modern affordable housing.
The adaptive reuse project converted four buildings in the 115-year-old Landers, Frary & Clark plant into 79 one-bedroom, 59 two-bedroom and 16 three-bedroom apartments geared toward young professionals, middle-income households and fixed-income seniors. The apartments serve individuals and families earning 30, 50, 60 and 80 percent of Area Median Income.
