Years after developers, including a Meriden nonprofit, broke ground on renovations to convert two historic schools in Bristol into apartments, the units are finally fully leased. Bristol Enterprises LLC, a partnership between Ted Lazarus of the Park Lane Group and Maynard Road Corp., the private nonprofit development arm of the Meriden Housing Authority, cobbled together $23 million in tax credits and other state financing to complete the renovations to Bingham and O’Connell schools on Park Street and North Street. The renovations included efforts to provide natural light, ventilation and increased fire safety. The project also incorporated Maynard Road’s use of geothermal and solar technologies to make both buildings energy neutral. “For us, the conversion of those former schools to apartments has been a great project,” said Bristol Director of Economic and Community Development Justin Malley.
