Stamford’s South End has changed a lot in the past decade. But is development finally slowing?

Over the past 15 years, as Stamford grew to become Connecticut’s second-most populous city, no area experienced more of a transformation than the South part — also known as Harbor Point courtesy of the large mixed-use development that bears the name. The 350-acre peninsula’s two census tracts saw a combined 140 percent increase in population in the 2010s. Development doesn’t appear to be ending in the near future. According to a city map, three residential and two office buildings have been approved, with several more projects proposed. As BLT’s presence in the South End has grown, so has some residents’ resistance to the firm’s work. Though they’re not building at the moment, BLT still owns several large lots on the peninsula. The portfolio includes the B&S Carting site and the former Blickensderfer factory lot at 650 Atlantic St.
