The first 11 tenants have moved into The Anthem at Square 10, the first building to be nearly completed in a sweeping remake of the downtown commercial site where the New Haven Veterans Memorial Coliseum once stood. An outdoor pool, gym and some co-working spaces also are ready, along with the second and third residential floors. Developer LWLP New Haven LLC is working to get the fourth through seventh floors of the $76 million “Phase 1A” building ready to be lived in this winter. The nearly complete building, development of which was aided by a $999,000 state remediation grant, is the first of several high-rise commercial buildings going up off South Orange Street as part of the project. The five-acre site, which has been a parking lot since the coliseum was imploded on Jan. 20, 2007, is at the city’s front door, where vehicles exiting Interstate 95 and Interstate 91 on Route 34 first enter downtown.
