4.3-acre excavation that came to be called “the hole in the ground”, undeveloped for more than 20 years, was approved by the City of Stamford Zoning Board to turn it into a multimillion-dollar residential project. The project when complete will consist of 11 apartment buildings, including 272 studios, 273 one-bedroom and 127 two bedroom apartments. Ten of the buildings would be connected in a square-like shape with one building jutting out of the middle. The site also features a 5,090-square-foot public cafe at the street corner with outdoor seating. The 83,000-square-foot outdoor area also includes a pool, chessboard, fire pit and green space.
Stamford Health
We were on the team that facilitated a property swap between Stamford Hospital and Charter Oak Communities to make two developments a reality. As part of the swap, Stamford Hospital gained a portion of the Vidal Court property for the hospital’s new campus expansion including a new healthcare pavilion. We provided planning, civil engineering and land surveying services which translated to fluency in applications for Master Plan changes, Zone changes, Text changes, Site Plan approvals, and the discontinuance of City Streets. Construction logistics were critical to the design allowing the hospital to stay fully operational during the campus and facility improvements. The project is registered with the U.S. Green Building Council under the LEED® rating system and is incorporating strategies from the Green Guide for Health Care. The Charter Oak Communities revitalization of Vidal Court includes a replacement of the existing 216 units and an increase in the total number of units to 350 on multiple sites.
Waypointe
Waypointe is a comprehensive redevelopment within Norwalk’s Central Business District. Redniss & Mead worked closely with our clients and the Norwalk Redevelopment Agency to effectuate their shared vision of mixed-use urban renewal. The first phase of the growing project is under construction and includes 460 apartments and 60,000 square feet of commercial floor area designed to spur the creation of a lively urban core centered on a pedestrian-only street. We provided land surveying, site civil engineering, and zoning analysis for this complex land development involving private and publicly funded infrastructure improvements and the compilation of the 30 different parcels of land. Redniss & Mead provided the infrastructure improvement design to the City allowing the Department of Public Works to oversee its bidding, award, and construction under CT Department of Economic Development criteria. The Master Plan currently includes 190 more apartments and another 200,000 sf of commercial floor area.

Black Rock Yacht Club
Beacon Point Marina / Greenwich Water Club
The Mianus River Boat and Yacht Club Marina
We performed surveying services including sub-marine topographic conditions and design of boat slips for this 46-slip municipal marina with launching ramp.
We were also involved with the processing of Municipal, State and Federal permit applications in conjunction with the Greenwich Parks and Recreation Department. Construction services included stakeout, final location and contract negotiations with marine contractors.
Stamford Yacht Club
We mapped the mooring field, documented by historic data, and the position of the fixed pier and floating docks pursuant to permits from the Army Corps of Engineers and the Department of Environmental Protection to retain and maintain all of the Club’s in-water facilities. After a storm destroyed the pier, we were able to redesign and obtain permits to repair and replace the pier under the Certification of Permission process. Coastal Site Plan Permits were also designed and processed for upgrades to the Club’s facilities, including building additions.
