Developers propose 3 new apartment buildings on White Plains office site

A joint venture between Rye Brook-based RPW Group and Cleveland-based apartment developer NRP Group hopes to bring 303 new apartments to White Plains, the Westchester County Business Journal reported. RPW’s founder and CEO Robert Weisz told the White Plains Common Council the venture would add three five-story apartment buildings to the northeast side of an office complex at 1133 Westchester Avenue. “The work-live concept is going to be brought to life in White Plains, and this will be one of the first in the region,” Weisz told the council. The building currently houses ITT Corporation, the Journal News newspaper and the national law firm Wilson Elser Moskowitz Edelman & Dicker, among other tenants. Weisz is also hoping to construct apartments near the postmodern 800 Westchester Avenue, another White Plains building located along Westchester’s rapidly-changing Platinum Mile. [WBJ]
