A plan to develop more than 200 acres got closer to realty with the recent announcement of $3 million in federal community project funding. “Every day there’s an article in the paper about the housing crisis affecting families,” DeLauro, who represents the 3rd District, said at a press conference inside Seymour Town Hall Tuesday. The planned two-mile road connecting Route 67 in Seymour and Route 42 in Beacon Falls, DeLauro said, would open up access to a future development similar to the nearby Quarry Walk in Oxford, which was built on the site of the former Haynes Stone Quarry, and includes a mix of retail, light industrial and residential use. Tom Haynes, whose company Haynes Construction built Quarry Walk, called the planned 220-acre development on the Seymour, Beacon Falls line a blank canvas where the company could apply the lessons learned at Quarry Walk.
