New York developer Avner Krohn said he expects to have tenants in his latest New Britain development in September. Krohn said construction on the $20 million-plus, 107-unit apartment building known as The Brit is continuing but interest in the development is high. There are, right now, 165 people on the waiting list that have yet to be vetted,” said Krohn, principal of Jasko Development. Krohn is also working simultaneously on developing The Highrailer, located at 283 Main St., adjacent to The Brit. The Highrailer was formerly home to Amato’s Toy & Hobby, a well-known toy store in the Hardware City. Krohn said the $25-million Highrailer project will be completed and ready for occupancy at the end of 2024. The Highrailer is currently under construction and will feature 114 housing units and retail space including 3,000 square feet for a to-be-determined restaurant. Both projects are being financed via private equity and bank loans.
