Parkside Crossing is a multi-phase, 5 building development plan led by RMS Companies as part of the Hill-to-Downtown New Haven Community Plan. In total, the project will bring roughly 600 units to the Hill District when complete, 30% of these are to be affordable housing units. The first building, “Parkside Crossing” is a 4 story, mixed use 110-unit structure complete in 2019 on Gold Street. The next phase includes 2 additional buildings on Lafayette and Congress Streets totaling 284,000 sq. ft. and bringing in 104 and 90 units respectively. Each building will include indoor recreation and amenity spaces along with rooftop lounges similar to what is seen in “Parkside Crossing”.

Torrington Company Site 87 Union Street (44 Olive Street)
