RASPP LLC/Hudson Partners Development will redevelop the long-vacant, 70,000 square foot former Trustco building located at 192 Erie Boulevard in downtown Schenectady, creating 26,000 square feet of commercial high-tech office space and 36 market rate apartments. The property is one of many that have plagued this section of downtown, contrasting starkly with the significant public and private investment and revitalization occurring just blocks away. The proposed project location is in the City’s downtown core, and is within walking distance to Proctors Theatre and key educational and transportation hubs (SCCC, Union College, Amtrak, Greyhound Bus Stations, CDTA Electric City Trolley and CDA/CDPHP sponsored Bike Share). Expected outcomes include the improvement of a blighted property, increased tax base, employment opportunities, and further revitalization of Downtown Schenectady and Erie Boulevard.
