Benedict Court is a new multifamily apartment building in the heart of the Greenwich, Connecticut’s commercial downtown area. In this area of Greenwich there is a collection of red brick, six-story apartment buildings dotting the area one block from the main commercial avenue. These apartment buildings, while varied in architectural styles and not overly ornate, all employ thoughtful and well detailed brick facades. Their creative brick details introduce a sense of craft and timeless proportions. The proposed Benedict Court project extends this character through its use of two brick tones and textural brick detailing including window surrounds and a brick cornice. The 120-unit building has a gracious port cochere vehicular drop off and a covered pedestrian entry on the main façade which provides a sheltered entry area off the street. The building includes many amenity spaces on the ground floor and a common roof-top terrace for all residents with sweeping views of Long Island Sound. There is also a cellar and sub-cellar indoor parking facility for all residents.

The project is part of the State of Connecticut 8-30g affordable housing program and therefore a percentage of the units will be reserved as affordable housing units.
