Triplex conversion, 404 East Main Street
Description
The new owner wanted a variance to turn the vacant ground-floor commercial space into a third apartment, making the building a triplex in a district that requires ground-floor commercial. The zoning board denied it unanimously after questioning whether the space could still work as an office or small business.
Impact summary
The Stormwater Authority denied it on Jun 4, 2026.
The denial keeps the storefront zoned for commercial use, which residents' groups and the board see as protecting the Main Street corridor — but the owner says the space may just sit empty.
