Patchogue: 262 New Units Planned For Riverfront Carriage House Project

"Nearly 10 years in the making, a $160 million luxury apartment project is now primed to transform a rundown section of Patchogue’s downtown," reported Long Island Business News. "The development called Carriage House will replace two vacant mixed-use buildings, a vacant industrial building, an auto repair shop, and a metal fabrication facility at 188-214 West Main St."

“That end of town has been a depressed end of town since at least the 77 years I’ve been alive,” Patchogue Mayor and strong YIMBY-style leader Paul Pontieri said. “It’s cleaning up a mess, and I’m a believer that a downtown grows when you put feet on the street, and this is 262 units. On paper, it looks beautiful, and I think it will take that end of town and activate it. Across the street, you have the Blue Point Brewery and the YMCA, so it caps that end of town, which is the western entrance into the village.” 

LIBN reported that Carriage House replaces three vacant non-residential buildings, as well as an auto repair shop and a metal fabrication facility on the property footprint.
