NEW HAVEN, CT-The Montreal-based development firm Live Work Learn Play unveiled its $300-million mixed-use redevelopment proposal for the old Coliseum site here.

The proposal calls for 524 apartments, 52,000 square feet of public space, an office tower and a four-star hotel on the 4.5-acre site. LWLP is the city's preferred developer for the project.

“We will only devote ourselves to a handful of cities in North America,” said Max Reim of LWLP during his presentation to approximately 60 people on Thursday evening. “And we've decided to invest in New Haven for many, many decades to come, hopefully. You have all the right ingredients, all the world-class ingredients, and now it's time to stitch them together ... to seamlessly integrate all the great institutions you have — education, the health care, the different diversity and communities.” See story in the New Haven Register.
