The Strand

The third of Jasko Development's mixed-use buildings being built in downtown New Britain will rise in the footprint of the fabled Strand movie theater that entertained generations of New Britain residents near the bustling corner of Main and Chestnut Streets. The theater closed long ago, but it has remained a warm touchstone in the hearts of many area residents. This new 100-unit building with 3,330 Sq. Ft. of ground-floor retail construction will be designed to reference the grand old theater.

Jasko Development will set aside 20% of the Strand's 100 apartments for mid to low income applicants. The remaining 80 units will be leased at market rate. There will be two ground floor retail /restaurant spaces totaling 3,330 sq ft.
