With a major project nearing completion nearby and plenty of other activity in the vicinity, a large untouched plot in Manchester is being prepped for eventual redevelopment.
Thalhimer Realty Partners is seeking to rezone the 2.2-acre plot at 423 Hull St. from its current B-5 Central Business District designation to TOD-1 Transit-Oriented Nodal District, a relatively new zoning type that allows for mixed-use projects up to 12 stories.
TRP, the development arm of local commercial brokerage giant Thalhimer, bought the parcel as part of a $9 million deal in 2013 that kicked off its redevelopment of the former Reynolds South plant. The site is adjacent to the residential part of the project, City View Lofts, as well as Lynx Ventures’ office, retail and residential project The Current.
