Proposal For New Use of Friendly's Building in Branford to be Heard Tonight

Tonight, the Planning and Zoning Board will review plans that could turn the former Friendly’s site at 22 Leetes Island Road into a new sit-down restaurant, reports Esteban L. Hernandez, of the New Haven Register.

The proposal is being pitched by Fusco-Shiller Branford Associates.

Originally, plans called for demolishing the Friendly’s building and building two new structures, one, for a restaurant, and one, for a bank, the Register reports.

But now plans call for remodeling the existing Friendly’s building, and the proposed bank is not apart of the revised plans.

If approved construction would commence in the spring.
