Development near Dunkin’ Park in Hartford brought to halt by judge ruling

A judge this week sided against the city in the ongoing lawsuit surrounding development around Dunkin’ Park, further delaying long-discussed plans for major developments in the area before a trial set for April 2024. The ruling, issued Tuesday by Superior Court Judge Cesar A. Noble, denied a motion to strike or dismiss a part of an amended complaint submitted last year by Centerplan Construction Co. and DoNo Hartford LLC, the two companies who are suing the city in a lawsuit that has been ongoing since 2016. But the developers did not meet the May 17, 2016 deadline, and Bronin fired them from the project. The city then hired RMS to finish the project and develop the rest of the area, part of a long-term plan to add mixed-use residential and commercial spaces throughout North Crossing. Last year, the state Supreme Court ordered a new trial after a jury had initially ruled in favor of the city. The trial is now set to begin on April 16, 2024, according to the Superior Court docket.
