Farnam Courts Transformation Mill River Crossing

210 Hamilton St, New Haven, CT

The Farnam Courts Transformation Plan is an integral part of the City of New Haven’s Mill-River Revitalization Plan. Farnam Courts’ plan is comprised of several phases. The plan involves the demolition of the existing 240 units on-site and an abandoned warehouse off-site. Once completed, Farnam Court will provide for 262 housing units, almost 7,500 square feet of commercial space, and a 30,000 square community park. The Plan also provides for 173 RAD and Low-Income Housing Tax Credit assisted units and 32 market-rate units.

The project was designed to promote a family-oriented community environment and increase the supply of affordable housing in this area as well as help to revitalize the Mill River-Fair Haven neighborhood. It reconnects the development to the surrounding street grids and with the Wooster Square neighborhood where abundant shopping and services are located. The total development cost is pegged at approximately $128 million. Almost $100 million in other public and private funds were leveraged for this development.

Miller, then-CEO of the Glendower Group, Inc., directed the planning, design and financing of the Farnam Courts transformation.
