Forest City to Present Revised Plans for Echo Bay Development

The developer was granted an extension to allow the city to study the proposal.

The disposition of city-owned waterfront property will be the subject of a presentation Tuesday at the New Rochelle City Council.

Forest City Residential will outline changes to their proposed redevelopment of the site containing the New Rochelle Armory and the City Yard along Main Street.

The council voted Jan. 17 to extend a memorandum of understanding that would allow the city to scrutinize plans for the Echo Bay development put forward by Forest City for the site.

City Manager Charles Strome III said the first proposal included plans for private property, but he thought that Tuesday's presentation will likely deal with only city-owned properties.

Strome said he did not anticipate any action being taken on the presentation Tuesday.
