Momentum is building for East Hartford to claim by eminent domain the Silver Lane Plaza, a huge and aging retail complex that town officials say is decaying due to neglect. The town’s Redevelopment Agency is scheduled Thursday to vote on an eminent domain claim of two properties comprising the 22-acre plaza, which hosts three buildings with a combined 156,790 square feet of retail space.
Development along East Hartford's Silver Lane moved forward last week, with town officials making a key approval and setting the date for another. In a 6-1 vote, the Planning and Zoning Commission approved zoning changes on Wednesday for the 26-acre lot of the old Showcase Cinemas, proposed for construction of a 477-unit apartment complex. New Britain-based Jasko Development plans to construct “amenity-rich” apartments at the site, with features including a dog park, swimming pool, and clubhouse.
