Construction Begins on Tuckahoe Apartments

Construction has just begun on a new apartment building in the Village of Tuckahoe. The luxury building, which will be at the eastern-most corner of Main Street, will have 59 one-bedroom units and 49 two-bedroom units.

“Tuckahoe has experienced quality revitalization over the past decade and this project is further testimony to the vibrant renaissance taking place in our community,” said Tuckahoe Mayor Steve Ecklond. "This new project will become the new gateway to our Main Street and we look forward to its completion and to welcoming its residents to their new home town.”

The companies that are working on the project are Glenco Residential, Roseland, Mirando Properties and Sharp Management.

“I’m delighted to bring this new residential development to the Tuckahoe, Eastchester and Bronxville communities,” said Glen Vetromile, Glenco Residential’s development partner. “There have been no new housing offerings of this type in this area in nearly two decades."

The building will have a fitness center, club room, outdoor terrace gardens and an outdoor kitchen for entertaining guests. The parking for the building will be in an underground garage. In addition to the apartments, 3,500 square feet of retail space is also part of the project.

“Tuckahoe has been my passion for the last 10 years,” said Philip Raffiani vice president of Mirado Properties. “While building on Main Street I saw the potential of the site, but It took seven long years to get this project to where it is today and I am proud to have my name associated with this final version.”
