Crescent Village Condominiums
Shelton, CT
135 attached units with amenity building
256,000 sq.ft. with pool
This project involved the purchase of Pinecrest Country Club, a facility that was previously functioning as a day camp and catering hall. RG Building and Development, an affiliate of Eastpointe, identified the value-add opportunity to complete the entitlement process initially started by another developer. RG worked closely with the town planner to arrive at a plan that was acceptable to both neighbors and various town boards. In addition to its entitlement risk, the site presented numerous structural challenges. RG had to widen a large portion of CT Route 110 to gain access to the site and implement an onsite rock crushing operation to process 150,000 cubic yards of material removed from the site.
Riverway Condominiums
Norwalk, CT
57 units
110,000 sq. ft. 4 story over podium building
This project involved the abandonment of an existing town road. To avoid litigation with abutters, Eastpointe’s affiliate, RG, worked closely with O&G Industries, the owner of a nearby asphalt plant, to come up with alternative ingress and egress options for their facilities. The approval also involved RG providing land with access to the Norwalk River for a local non-profit rowing club. The site presented additional development challenges attributed to the Norwalk River on one side and very steep topography on its other. The building had to be built on steel piles and pile caps. On the steep side, due to a close property line, RG constructed a driven soldier pile wall. The wall was faced with a sprayed concrete product creating a finished face that made the wall look like a natural stone ledge. Despite the aforementioned complexities,

49 units
72,000 sq. ft. on 16 acres
This project was unique in that it was the first and only affordable housing project at the time approved in Newtown, CT. Eastpointe’s affiliate, RG collaborated with affordable housing consultant Fairfield 2000 and the Town of Newtown to develop a program that worked for the town while following the states affordable housing guidelines. The site was an old quarry and had been approved for an assisted living development. RG worked with the Connecticut DEP to design an on-site sewage system that used all on site drainage water to recharge the grey water for nitrogen dilution.
