2705 Main Street self-storage and building revitalization

White Plains

Description

A petition to change the zoning text so self-storage can be a special permit use in the CB-3 district — but only fully underground. The board sent a favorable letter to the Council; the real site plan for fitness, pickleball and trampoline uses comes later.

Impact summary

Could reactivate a huge vacant downtown building with minimal traffic — about nine car trips at peak on a Saturday — with all storage hidden underground.

Below-grade self-storage at former Sears/Walmart building, 2705 Main Street

The owners of the vacant former Sears/Walmart building want to fill its 90,000-square-foot basement with self-storage, with fitness, pickleball and trampoline uses planned for the rest of the building. The zoning change now goes to the Common Council, which would hold a public hearing and later decide any special permit. It could bring a long-vacant downtown building back to life with minimal traffic.
