A Southington-based developer is proposing a mixed-use apartment development with more than 100 units on an empty municipal lot in Bristol, which he would purchase from the city if plans are approved by the Zoning Commission.

Gino Carrier of Carrier Construction Inc. is looking to build the multi-phase Center Square Village at 111 North Main St., between Center and Hope streets.

The city-owned property is currently a parking lot, and Carrier said he would purchase the lot for an undisclosed amount if he gains project approval.

His plans call for the development of two buildings totaling 76,000 square feet, with 104 apartment units. The two buildings would contain 15,600 square feet of commercial space, 7,800 in each, the majority of which could be used for restaurants with outdoor dining space.

All apartments will be market rate, with 46 one-bedroom units, 44 two-bedroom units and 14 three-bedroom units, 12 of which will be fully ADA accessible.

Units will range in size between 680 square feet to 1,650 square feet.

The development will have a total of 224 parking spaces; 187 spaces on-site including 18 fully enclosed in garages and 24 spaces underneath the center carport. All residential parking spaces will be assigned. 

Center Square Village will also have 46 available street parking spaces along the project’s frontage and 72 spaces available in the public lot on an adjacent lot. 

Residents will have access to amenities such as a covered pavilion, outdoor grill areas, a fenced-in pet area and pet spa, and package delivery lockers. 

Phases one and two will each include the completion of one building and parking area. Carrier estimates work on phase one will begin within six months of site-plan approval and be completed within 18 months. Phase two will start six months after phase one is completed and also take about six months to complete. 

Carrier said he estimates this could be a three-year project that will greatly improve the landscape and access to housing for that area of the city.
