Owner of the much-debated 54 Loomis Street property, David Cerundolo, and developer, the Tambone Investment Group, will return to the Planning Board on March 19 at 8:20 pm for a public hearing on revised plans to build two, 2 to 2½ story buildings in the Depot Park overlay district. This is a change from the original proposal to build one three story, largely residential structure, which met with generally negative neighborhood reactions and was withdrawn for reconsideration.

In the new proposal, one of the two buildings would front on Loomis Street. According to the site layout submitted, this building would be two stories with 2,860 square feet of retail space on the first floor and seven residential units. The second, a two and one-half story building, would be set back from Loomis Street and be entirely residential, with 16 residential units. In all, there are 4 two-bedroom townhouses, 8 two-bedroom units, and 11 one-bedroom units planned.

The Citizen has published three articles about the 54 Loomis Street redevelopment to date.
