High Street Residential (HSR), the residential subsidiary of Trammell Crow Company, has broken ground on Thorndal Circle in Darien, Connecticut.
“Thorndal Circle represents a significant milestone for Darien,” said Michael Adamo, a senior vice president with HSR. “As the first Class-A apartment community built here in more than two decades, it thoughtfully balances modern, transit-oriented living with the charm and natural beauty that define this town. We’re proud to help meet Darien’s evolving housing needs while preserving the qualities that make it such a special place to call home.”
Located at 1 Thorndal Circle, the luxury apartment complex will be spread across five buildings with units ranging from studios to two-bedrooms with dens. In-unit amenities will include all-electric appliances, high-efficiency heat pump HVAC systems, and fully electric on-demand hot water heaters. Community amenities will include a clubhouse, resort-style pool, co-working lounge, fitness center, yoga studio, spa and wellness area, golf simulator, and demo kitchen. Future residents will also enjoy extensive green space, including a 2.5-acre nature preserve, dog run, walking trails, grilling areas, and a curated eco-park.
Thorndal Circle will also benefit from outstanding transit connectivity. The community will have direct access to Interstate 95 and Merritt Parkway and will be within walking distance of two Metro-North train stations with regular service to New York City. Residents will also enjoy walkability to dozens of nearby restaurants and shops, as well as the Darien Public Library, Stony Brook Park, and Baker Park.
“This groundbreaking marks an important step for Darien,” said Jon Zagrodzky, Darien’s First Selectman. “I’m delighted to see a modern, high-quality community taking shape that will enhance the town for years to come.”
