1 Croton Point Avenue Multifamily Development

The Village of Croton-on-Hudson has owned the property known as Parking Lot A on Croton Point Avenue since the 1960s, when it was purchased from the New York Central Railroad. The lot has served as overflow parking for the Croton-Harmon Train Station since that time. The changes in commuting since the pandemic began in 2020 have shown that this property is no longer needed for that purpose. As part of the South Riverside Avenue Area Zoning Study, the Village adopted new zoning regulations to permit mixed-use or all-residential development on the site. In 2023, the Mayor and Board of Trustees established a Lot A Task Force to develop a request for proposals (RFP) from developers to purchase the property, in consultation with AKRF, the Village’s land use consultant. The RFP was published on July 24, 2023, and has a response deadline of November 15, 2023.

On April 22, 2024, the Village Board of Trustees announced that it has selected WBP Development LLC as the purchaser and developer for the Lot A parcel.

On July 17, 2024, the Village Board of Trustees acknowledged receipt of a special permit application from WBP Development LLC for the construction of a 100-unit multifamily development. The Board has begun the 30-day window of declaring its intent to serve as Lead Agency under the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA).

On December 18, 2024, the Village Board of Trustees issued a negative declaration under SEQRA, a statement of consistency with the Village's Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) and a special permit to WBP Development LLC for the construction of a 100-unit multifamily building at 1 Croton Point Avenue.
