Bachard Lofts Redevelopment

Troy

Description

Troy's first brownfield plan under the state's new housing program: the empty Media Genesis office building gets converted into 28 apartments (half income-restricted for 15 years) with retail, office, and tenant amenities including a pickleball court. Approved unanimously but contingent on state approvals — the developer has already applied for a building permit.

Impact summary

No city cash upfront — the developer gets about $1.1 million back through tax increment financing from the property value the project itself creates. Brings workforce housing and new life to a stretch of Maple Road that hasn't seen much residential investment.
