A large-scale proposal to demolish an 80-room hotel in Fairfield and replace it with a 110-room hotel and a 250-unit apartment building has been approved.
Norwalk-based Spinnaker Real Estate Partners in December proposed razing the Circle Hotel Fairfield, at 441 Post Road, and constructing the two massive, four-story structures on the 8-acre site.
The hotel will contain 59,148 square feet of space, while the apartment building will house 256,568 square feet, according to an application filed with the town. Of the 250 apartments, 12% will be deemed affordable.
The proposal includes building a 473-space parking garage and 65 parking spaces from the Circle Diner, which will remain at its current location adjacent to the site.
The apartment building will have 36 studios averaging 560 square feet; 150, one-bedroom units averaging 785 square feet; and 64, two-bedroom units averaging 1,176 square feet, the application said.
Plans also call for a “robust landscape plan” that would include over 280 trees, 430 shrubs, and many hundred more perennials and grasses, the application stated.
The town’s Planning and Zoning Commission approved the plan with a 5-2 vote on Tuesday night.
