Wallingford Train Station

Looks like they plan on encouraging some transit oriented development around the Wallingford train station:

With the support of the Planning and Zoning Commission, Town Planner Linda Bush is looking into the creation of a downtown transit zone. The zone would overlay the downtown area west of Route 5. Bush envisions the zone spurring the redevelopment of older buildings into new ground-floor retail with high-density housing above.

The zone would mesh with a commuter rail line that will run through the area. It would be created under the guidelines of HOMEConnecticut, a state program that provides towns financial incentives for creating high-density housing.

The HOMEConnecticut program dangles attractive incentives to towns: $2,000 for every housing unit approved within an eligible zone and $2,000 for each unit that is actually built.

Looks like North Haven, Wallingford, and Meriden could get some nice developments to go with the New Haven/Hartford commuter line.
