The Town of Berlin has been awarded a $500,000 Regional Brownfield  
Development Grant from the Connecticut Department of Economic and  
Community Development for the remediation and redevelopment of 889  
Farmington Avenue. The grant will be used for demolition, hazardous  
material abatement and remediation to prepare the site for future  
development.

Commenting on the announcement, Berlin Mayor Adam Salina said, "889  
Farmington Avenue is located next to the Town’s future Police Station  
and within 50 feet of the Berlin Train Station. The redevelopment of  
this property is a critical part of the Town’s effort to revitalize  
the area in the vicinity of the Train Station.  The grant will  
provide funds to demolish blighted buildings and to undertake  
environmental remediation to prepare the site for future development.
