One of the most recognizable buildings in Connecticut is up for grabs again. The old Waterbury train station, with its 240-foot clock tower, is back on the market at $4.95 million.
If you’ve driven I-84 through the Brass City, you know the tower. For decades the building was also home to the Republican-American newspaper, so it’s woven into Waterbury’s story in more ways than one.
Why the timing is interesting
Meanwhile, the state is putting $35 million into Union Station right next door. Big public investment next to a landmark that’s for sale is the kind of thing that gets developers paying attention.
The property sits at 389 Meadow Street in Waterbury.
So what should go in there?
Food hall? Rooftop bar? Lofts? All three? A building like this could be a destination for the whole region if the right plan comes together.
