360 STATE STREET OPENS

NEW HAVEN, CONN. — This week will mark the opening of 360 State Street, a $190 million residential project located in downtown New Haven. The 32-story, 700,000-square-foot tower features 500 rental apartments. Units range in size from studios to three bedrooms, and rents range from $1,165 to $4,409. Amenities include a landscaped, rooftop terrace with a pool and a sundeck; a fitness center and yoga studio; a resident lounge; a game room; a screening room; and a children's play room. The bottom of the building contains 28,000 square feet of retail space, including a 20,000-square-foot food co-op and a bike shop. A 500-car parking structure will feature a car sharing program and 200 bicycle parking spaces. The project is applying for LEED-Platinum certification under its Neighborhood Development pilot program. Among the project's many sustainable features is a 400 kilowatt fuel cell that will provide nearly all of the building's thermal energy. The building is also located directly across the street from the State Street train station. Becker + Becker is the developer of the project, and financing was provided by Multi-Employeer Property Trust. Bozzuto Management Co. is the property manager. The building is already 20 percent pre-leased.
