The Town Council has approved the conceptual plan for the proposed Triton Square apartment complex at the former William Seely School property at 55 Seely School Drive. Since DonMar Development, the preferred developer, unveiled its proposal in February, the North Haven-based company made modifications — including increasing the number of apartment units from 280 to about 304, adding some public amenities and reconfiguring the parking area, DonMar project executive Anthony Di Gioia said. If all goes as planned, Di Gioia said the goal is to begin demolition and asbestos abatement on the school property in November and break ground on building construction in March. The two-year construction project is expected to be completed in March 2023, though he anticipates residents could begin moving into some units 18 months after breaking ground. The council voted 7-2 on Tuesday to approve the conceptual plan, with Councilors Portia Bordelon and Aundré Bumgardner in opposition.
