WINDSOR — The town’s Development Review Board will consider a revised proposal for a workforce housing apartment building in downtown Windsor during a public hearing at 7 p.m. Tuesday.
The project, developed by the Windham & Windsor Housing Trust and Evernorth, nonprofit organizations that build workforce and affordable housing, would create 25 new apartments in a four-story building on an acre of land between Main and Central streets, next to the Windsor Diner. The land is owned by the Windsor Improvement Corp., also known as WIC. On Tuesday, the group is presenting a revised applicantion to officially ask the board for subdivision and design plan approval.
“It should be very clear at the end of the meeting what the prospects of the project are going forward,” Windsor Town Manager Tom Marsh said.
The developers have already modified their plan, first proposed in 2021, by cutting off a fifth floor, and five apartments, after feedback from the public, the Development Review Board, town officials and the state Division of Historic Preservation. The applicants also removed round windows and expanded the brick facade that will face Main Street, Marsh said.
