Bring a drive-thru, pharmacy, bank, restaurant, hair salon or regional retail business to the Tylerville gateway of Haddam. Ownership will build to suit and lease a multi-tenant retail building of approximately 12,500 to 15,000 SF on the ±2.07-acre Phase II site directly behind the long-established Dunkin’ at 82 Bridge Road (Route 82). The concept places drive-thru end caps for a bank and a pharmacy at either end, with inline units for restaurant, hair salon and regional retail tenants between them, and a freestanding pad is possible for a bank or pharmacy that prefers to ground lease and build its own. The site fronts Route 82 at an intersection the State just rebuilt with two modern roundabouts, on the Haddam side of the newly rehabilitated East Haddam swing bridge, the only Connecticut River vehicle crossing for roughly 30 river miles. The parcel is zoned I-1 Industrial, so retail, drive-thru, bank, pharmacy, restaurant and salon uses must be confirmed with the Town of Haddam Land Use office, and the 2008 Phase II site plan approval is to be re-confirmed or renewed.
