  1. If a developer is trying to redevelop this site then that’s a good thing vs leaving it to keep declining. Sounds like a very experinced company is leading the project and that will mean a lot in the end result.

    1. Please!!!! Not just another cookie cutter, strip mall, surface parking, pedestrian unfriendly, car-centric development. Access to the Pennsy Trail means people could walk there from east and west. Irvington already has a rich, walkable hub along Washington Street and down Audobon to the Pennsy. We’ll embrace a development that honors the community.

    2. 100% agree. The Pennsy Trail is right behind this plaza. This area needs improvement and development would kick start that area east of Irvington.

    3. Mike, good point, but if that’s what they deliver, it would be one failure of a company.

      “cookie cutter, strip mall, surface parking, pedestrian unfriendly, car-centric development” is exactly what they’ve had there, and it’s been dying on the vine for decades.

    4. Definitely wish they would do some market rate apartments on the back end along the Pensy Trail with maybe some ground level dining/entertainment options with patio seating. I’m just excited to see something happen to this site finally.

  2. I hope they really engage the community to ascertain their needs. Also include renewable energy like community solar and permeable surfaces to help mitigate flooding and help reduce utility costs. Lots of possibilities!
