Multifamily development proposed near Windsor Locks’ new train station

Town of Windsor Locks 97 Suffield St., Windsor Locks
By Hanna Snyder Gambini

A small multifamily development could sprout up within walking distance of Windsor Locks’ downtown transit-oriented development zone and new train station.

Owner and applicant Fazza Saleh has applied for an adaptive reuse permit to redevelop the property at 97 Suffield St., formerly known as the Italian Progressive Club, into four multifamily residential units. 

The surrounding area is residential, making the new use “more like adjacent uses than the previous club and assembly/banquet use,” the application said. 

The redevelopment would also “remove a long vacant eyesore and provide increased housing options” within walking distance of the transit-oriented development zone where a new train station is under construction.

This development site is just over 1 acre.

The applicant proposes to keep the location and height of the building, while proposing new windows, doors, painting, trim and better maintenance of the parking area and landscaping. 

Saleh bought the property in July from the town of Windsor Locks for $76,000, according to land records.
