Bridgeport Landing Development , LLC Information

Steelpointe Harbor is an urban mixed-use development designed to embody the most desirable characteristics of a harbor-side neighborhood. A new public realm consisting of a network of streets, open spaces, water views and harbor side strolling, together with a mix of residential, restaurant, retail and commercial uses reflects a diverse, livable, pedestrian-friendly environment consistent with the goals of the City of Bridgeport. Steelpointe Harbor is a 2.8 million square-foot mixed-use, urban-oriented waterfront in Fairfield County. It will be constructed over a period of years in phases. It is a public-private partnership between the City of Bridgeport and the developer, Bridgeport Landing Development LLC. When complete, Steelpointe Harbor will have approximately 800,000 square feet of retail 200,000 square feet of commercial/office, 300,000 square feet of hotel/meeting area, a new 200-slip marina with complete shore-side support and will ultimately contain 1,000 to 1,500 residential units. A tree-lined East Main Street will continue its role as the connection between the neighborhoods north of I-95 and the revitalized Stratford Avenue corridor, extending to the waterfront Harbor walk and marina. East Main Street terminates at the Harbor Walk in a grand public piazza ringed by retail, restaurants, the marina, a public pier and a panoramic view of the harbor. The hierarchy of public spaces along East Main Street ranges in scale from this unifying piazza at the waters edge, to smaller spaces for outdoor café and restaurant seating, to the more intimate strolling and shopping sidewalk realm serving retail patrons. The development of a safe and vibrant network of pedestrian-friendly streets has evolved through careful study of the relationships between appropriately scaled buildings, blocks, sidewalks, and on-street and streetscape amenities. Urban furniture for passive recreation as well as lighting, signage, awnings and special paving make up the balance of a well designed and stimulating street environment. ...
