YONKERS – Groundbreaking was held Wednesday for the $190 million Larkin Plaza mixed-use development project in the City of Yonkers.
The project, by RXR Realty and Rising Development, will consist of 439 apartments, together with 35,000 square feet of on-site space for shops, restaurants and other retailers.
The residential units will be two towers – one 25 stories and the other 17 stories.
An additional two-story building along Van Der Donck Park will house much of the project’s retail space. A separate, three-story structure will house parking for 539 vehicles in an attending parking facility.
“Today’s groundbreaking marks another monumental step in the revitalization efforts of our Yonkers waterfront,” said Yonkers Mayor Michael Spano. “This is the type of development we need in Yonkers to meet a growing demand for people who want to live, work and play in a diverse and urban environment.”
