The proposed, block-size Village at Riverside mixed-use development, planned for property bordered by Court and Main streets and deKoven and Dingwall drives, is anticipated to help the city finally reconnect to its riverfront via a walking bridge over Route 9. The Village is expected to include “affordable, luxury” housing units, with some 19 townhomes, 258 apartments consisting of studios and one- and two-bedroom units, and about 56 new on-street parking spaces, Wonder Works Construction of New York has said. The city is applying for a $250,000 Community Investment Fund planning grant from the state, according to Economic and Community Development Director Christine Marques, who provided project updates during the Dec. 10 meeting. Work on the former Mattabesett Canoe Club at 80 Harbor Drive, occupied by Tate’s restaurant since early May, is nearly done, Community Development Specialist Brian Gartner reported.
