A developer, Vessel RE Holdings LLC, is proposing to build 30 rental apartments on a vacant property at 2369 Main St. in Rocky Hill.

The Planning and Zoning Commission has set a public hearing for Oct. 19.

The development, known as Vessel Rocky Hill, would contain one-bedroom units, of which nine would be set aside as rent-restricted for low- and moderate-income households. The proposal shows a building that is five stories tall, with solar panels on the roof, and 33 parking spaces

The developer says the area is ideal for multifamily housing, with a sidewalk along Main Street providing pedestrian access to the center of town.

There are two bus stops within walking distance.The property, which is 0.5 acre, is diagonally across from the former Ames Corporate Center at 2418 Main St., where a residential development has been approved.

The development company has an agreement to purchase the parcel, currently owned by Ralph and Ida Lagana. 

Vessel RE Holdings LLC is an affiliate of New York City-based Vessel Technologies, which builds energy-efficient homes meant to be accessible to first responders, teachers and other residents who otherwise would be unable to afford to live in the communities they serve.

BL Companies of Hartford designed the project.
