$30M apartment complex proposed for New London church collapse site

The Eastern Connecticut Housing Opportunities (ECHO) group has submitted plans for a four-story, mixed-use complex with 46 apartments to be built at 66 Union St., the former location of the demolished First Congregational Church. Plans for the estimated $30 million project, set to be discussed by the Planning and Zoning Commission on Dec. 5, show commercial space at ground level with apartments on the upper floors. The building’s total area includes 3,487 square feet of office/commercial space with a State Street entrance. Another 52,025 square feet of residential space on the building’s upper floors will be filled with a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments ranging in sizes from 946 square feet to 1,465 square feet, plans show. A coastal site plan document states the wood-frame complex will be built over an 18-to-24-month period with construction anticipated to begin in the fall of 2025.
