New Apartments Coming to Main Street in Danbury
The $13-million, 150-apartment complex is slated to begin construction in the fall.
DANBURY, CT — A developer's plan to replace the 60,000-square-foot former News-Times building with a six-story apartment complex received city land-use approvals last week, the News-Times is reporting.
The $13-million, 150-apartment complex is slated to begin construction in the fall. The building, located at 333 Main St., is across the street from the 275-unit Kennedy Flats. That 10-acre residential complex was 90 percent rented last year when it was sold by the developer Greystar for $86 million.
Construction of the new apartments is expected to take 18 months, following the demolition of the existing building, which could now begin in as soon as a month.

Key Projects
Danbury High School Addition and Renovations
**Project Update: **
The Danbury High School Construction Project Addition, (Danbury Freshman Academy High School) has been completed and its Ribbon Cutting Ceremony was held August 2018.
The Danbury High School Construction Project Addition cost was $50 million dollars, and approximately 64,000 square feet, including three floors, adding 26 classrooms, a new gymnasium and a 9,000 square foot Performing Arts Building.
Danbury High School Tennis Courts
New tennis courts constructed at Danbury High School are manufactured with "post tension concrete". This type of concrete construction lengthens the life of concrete by pre-stressing the concrete with lineal cables running through the slab in a grid pattern. By adding tension to these cables, it make the concrete stronger, extending its life and reduces cracking.

Reservoir Street Culvert Replacement
The Reservoir Street Culvert Replacement project was the full replacement of a culvert which reached the end of its useful life span. The culvert dissects Reservoir Street in the south portion of Danbury near the Bethel town line. The box culvert was completed ahead of schedule and within budget. This is a heavily traveled roadway with over 2000 trips per day and is a vital artery connecting the two municipalities. In addition to the culvert replacement, the roadway area has been widened at the intersection. Reservoir Road has been improved with resurfacing throughout the roadway.
Tarrywile Dam Repair
The Tarrywile Dam is in need of concrete repair which requires lowering of the water level of the Tarrywile Pond to make necessary restoration of the concrete face, the top of the dam, and the spill way. A fence was also installed along the top of the dam to insure the safety of park goers.
