At The Markstone Group, we believe that successful development is the result of a harmonious balance between innovation, compliance, and collaboration with the community. Our latest project, Foundry Square, exemplifies this philosophy as we work closely with the Town Board and Planning Board members to create a project that not only meets our financial goals but also aligns with the town’s long-term objectives, community needs, and the interests of our neighbors.
From the onset, our team has been committed to understanding the unique challenges and opportunities presented by the Foundry Square site. We have engaged in extensive conversations with town officials, engineers, and community stakeholders to gain insights into the town’s long-term vision, community needs, and the concerns of neighboring residents.
Recognizing that Foundry Square is a brownfield site, we have prioritized environmental remediation and off-site DOT improvements as part of our development plan. By working closely with local boards, we aim to transform this previously underutilized space into a vibrant mixed-use development that enhances the town’s character and provides much-needed amenities for residents and visitors alike.
Moreover, we understand the importance of addressing the likes and dislikes of neighbors to our proposed project. Through open dialogue and community meetings, we have sought to address their concerns and incorporate their feedback into our design plans. Our goal is to create a project that respects the existing neighborhood while also providing tangible benefits, such as increased green space, improved pedestrian connectivity, and new housing options.
We are grateful for the initial endorsement of the Town Board and look forward to continuing our collaboration as we move into the planning stage. The Markstone Group is committed to working diligently with local boards and neighbors to bring this amazing project to fruition and create a development that benefits the entire community.
