Ground Breaks on 340-Unit Park Square Yonkers Project
Park Square Yonkers has reached a major redevelopment milestone, with Titan Real Estate Development and Yonkers officials marking the groundbreaking July 21 for a planned seven-story residential project at 1 Loehr Place.
The development is planned to include 340 apartments, making it a significant addition to the cityโs housing pipeline. Mayor Mike Spano and Yonkers elected officials participated in the groundbreaking, which marks the transition from planning and redevelopment work to the construction phase for the Loehr Place site.
A 340-apartment development
Park Square Yonkers is planned as a seven-story building with a unit mix focused on studios and one-bedroom apartments. The project announcement lists 192 studio apartments and 148 one-bedroom apartments, for a total of 340 homes.
The announced mix gives the project a concentrated set of smaller apartment layouts. The public announcement did not identify rental prices or any affordability requirements, so the unit count and apartment types are the clearest details currently available about the homes planned for the development.
The project is being developed by Titan Real Estate Development LLC. Its address, 1 Loehr Place, places Park Square Yonkers within the redevelopment of the former Mulford Gardens area, a site with an established history in Yonkers and continuing significance for people who previously lived there.
Planned amenities
The developmentโs plans include a 15,000-square-foot elevated private outdoor courtyard. Other announced resident amenities include a fitness center, business center, resident lounge, pet spa and resident storage.
Those features are part of the projectโs planned residential design, alongside the apartments themselves. The courtyard would provide a sizable shared outdoor space within the seven-story development, while the indoor amenities are intended for resident use.
Why the site matters
The groundbreaking is both a housing development announcement and a visible step in the continued redevelopment of the former Mulford Gardens area. The projectโs size will change the Loehr Place site as work proceeds, while its connection to Mulford Gardens gives the redevelopment a community history beyond the number of apartments being built.
News 12 Westchester reported that Yonkers City Council President Lakisha Collins-Bellamy described the site as continuing to hold significance for former Mulford Gardens residents. That context makes the project relevant not only as a new residential building, but also as part of the ongoing transformation of a location tied to former residents and the cityโs broader redevelopment efforts.
For Yonkers, the immediate change is the start of work associated with a planned 340-unit building at a clearly identified city address. The announced housing total is fixed at 340 apartments: 192 studios and 148 one-bedroom units. The project also adds planned shared amenities, including the elevated courtyard, fitness center, business center, lounge, pet spa and storage.
What happens next
The July 21 event established the projectโs groundbreaking and marked the next phase of the Park Square Yonkers redevelopment. Construction activity is now expected to continue at 1 Loehr Place as Titan Real Estate Development advances the building and its planned resident spaces.
The public announcement did not provide a projected completion date or the projectโs total development cost. Those details will determine when the planned apartments could become available and the scale of the investment, but the confirmed scope remains a seven-story, 340-apartment development tied to the former Mulford Gardens site.
