Downtown Danbury to get $4 million face-lift

The Streetscape Renaissance Project could begin as soon as mid-November, when voters will have decided whether Republican Mayor Mark Boughton or Democratic challenger Chris Setaro will lead them into a new decade. On one hand, more shops and businesses have closed than have opened in recent months — including Danbury Democratic Party chairwoman Andrea Gartner’s Pour Me café. On the other hand, a $13 million apartment complex could begin construction in the fall at the former News-Times building site, across the street from the 375-unit Kennedy Flats complex. The streetscape project, half of which is being paid for with a $2 million state grant, includes the heart of Main Street and Kennedy Avenue, along with the streets near the CityCenter Green, and the streets near the Danbury Ice Arena.
