With new buildings rising nearby on the former New Haven Veterans Memorial Coliseum site, Gov. Ned Lamont celebrated the city’s progress Wednesday and announced a $999,000 state “brownfields” grant to remediate leftover debris from the Coliseum’s 2007 demolition on property slated for a new, 277,435-square-foot life sciences and tech office building. The $200 million building — designed by world-class, New Haven-based architects Pelli Clark & Partners — is expected to be the third to rise in the first phase of development of the long-vacant property, which was a parking lot for years following the demolition of the Coliseum. The city and developer broke ground for the first mixed-use building to replace the Coliseum in November 2022. That 200-apartment building is the first of three buildings in Phase 1 of the site’s redevelopment, to be known as “Square 10.” The overall development is led by Spinnaker Real Estate Partners and LWLP New Haven LLC, to which the city transferred ownership of the property in late 2022. The office building is being developed by Durham, N.C.-based Ancora Partners LLC, which was represented Wednesday by Vice President, Development Peter Calkins.
