A proposal to construct a large warehouse at the site of a former World Wrestling Entertainment studio in Stamford has been given the green light.

Darien developer V20 Group, doing business as Hamilton Avenue Industrial LLC, plans to build a 112,757-square-foot warehouse on a parcel at 120 Hamilton Ave., and adjacent properties. 

The city’s Zoning Board approved the proposal Monday night.

V20 Group bought 120 Hamilton Ave., which is home to a former production studio that covered 30,000 square feet of space, from WWE in December 2024, according to property records.

The studio, according to V20 Group President Joe Vacarro, is currently being demolished to make way for the flex warehouse, which will have a maximum of three tenants, 111 parking spaces and 17 loading spaces.

“We’re excited about the next steps forward,” Vacarro told the Hartford Business Journal.

He said construction of the warehouse will begin once V20 Group gets the necessary building permits from the city.

In addition to 120 Hamilton Ave., V20 Group also purchased for almost $7.5 million two other WWE-owned adjacent parcels at 102 and 128 Hamilton Ave., to make way for the new warehouse. All three parcels cover 6.9 acres combined.

Those two parcels had six small office buildings that have already been demolished, Vacarro said.

Separately, in January, WWE also sold its previous headquarters building at 1241 E. Main St., to developer MB Financial after relocating its main office in 2023 into 400,000 square feet of space at 677-707 Washington Blvd.
