First Phase of Massive Meadow Creek Project Nears End; City Official Says Total Effort May be $30 Million

To the casual observer, the development along Meadowbrook Road just past and opposite the Bridgeport Country Club looks like a mini-city is going up. While it’s actually a residential development, the number of units it what could very well be a project that ends in the tens of millions of dollars is still progressing.
 
During last week’s Bridgeport Development Authority meeting, an update was given on the progress of Meadow Creek. And as Spellman repeated as he did to the Authority, he noted that things are going extremely well.
 
“They actually should be finished with Phase I in the fall and shortly after that they’ll begin Phase II,” said Spellman. “When it’s done, the plan is calling for 277 units.”
 
The units in this case consist of town homes and apartments in multiple buildings throughout the sprawling complex. Some of the buildings have six units and some go up to as many as 18 and then there are the town homes.
 
When complete, Spellman said the first phase will have 170 units. The second phase will have 107 units. He added that all of the units are apartments and town homes.

“They’re at about 60 percent capacity in the first phase and that’s the case with some of them still being under construction,” said Spellman. “What’s unique about this project is more than just how well it’s been received. What’s really unique is that I’ve not received one complaint from a person residing there. It’s unique because people are living there and there’s construction going on at the same time, which is a testament to how well the developer and the contractor are keeping things clean.”
 
The project will be one of the biggest ever on the residential front. Spellman said a complete buildout could result in a project that will end in the $30 million range.
