Aerospace manufacturer Pratt & Whitney plans to build a new 313,000-square-foot office building on its East Hartford campus, according to an application before the town’s Planning and Zoning Commission. The new building is part of a longer-term renovation to Pratt & Whitney’s headquarters, which includes 4.8 million square feet of manufacturing, warehouse, laboratory, office and other space in several buildings on a 251.2-acre campus at Rentschler Field. Between the new building and demolition, this phase of the larger renovation project will result in a net gain of 63,143 square feet of office space for Pratt & Whitney, according to a site plan application submitted by the company in February. The Planning & Zoning Commission will review the site plan at its meeting Wednesday evening. In addition to the commission’s approval of the site plan, Pratt’s plan requires approval from the Office of the State Traffic Administration and local building permits.
