Greenwich P&Z hears demolition pre-application for 2 Greenwich Avenue
Planning and Zoning · Meeting of July 21, 2026
Greenwich P&Z fields packed hearing over plan to raze 1878 Avenue landmark, approves four other projects unanimously. First Selectman Fred Camillo told the commission "we and the people of Greenwich do not want to see this altered in any way," as roughly 100 residents and officials including state Rep. Tina Corpus and RTM District 1 Chair Frederick Lee urged the panel to reject a developer's plan to demolish the 1878 building at 2 Greenwich Avenue for a mixed-use project with 14 apartments.
Lee said the project seeks a fourth story in a three-story zone and a floor area ratio of 4.06, and that the State Historic Preservation Office has opened an investigation with findings expected this fall. No vote was taken on the pre-application. The commission separately approved, all 5-0, a Riverside Avenue farmers market, a greenhouse project at 601 Indian Field Road, a nursery conversion at 10 Sherwood Avenue, a Greenwich Country Club clubhouse expansion, and a zoning amendment creating two parking-control districts under new state law.
