Danbury Considers Main Street Property Option for Public Parking

The city weighs purchasing the 721 Main Corp property at 229 238 Main Street at 135000 dollars with 35000 cash and the remainder financed at 5 percent, for possible public parking. The option may be completed Monday with Mayor J Thayer Bowman briefing the Planning Commission before the June council meeting. The tract, east of Main Street to Delay Street, covers over 50000 square feet, and the plan includes lease or sale use of all or part of the land. The owner’s counsel, Samuel Schine of Bridgeport, notes the tax assessment is about 150 percent of the price, suggesting the parcel may be overvalued or a bargain, and the property has lingered on the market for nearly two years. The 1964 fire that destroyed nearby stores prompted renewed interest in redevelopment. The 721 Main Corp is to hold a business session at 9:30 a.m. The Most Rev Walter W Curtis, Bishop of Bridgeport, will attend a noonday luncheon, with priests from five district councils invited and Trinity diocese convention plans to be discussed for Hartford in the fall.
