An application with the Town of Brookhaven calls for the construction of 11 two-story apartment buildings on a lot on the northwest corner of Echo Avenue and Sylvan Avenue in Miller Place. The complex on a 3.78-acre site in the Miller Place School District is called Echo Run.
A change of zoning from J Business 2 to MF Residential was requested by the applicant, Landmark Properties of Suffolk, LTD. A 1995 document from Brookhaven Town outlines a nursery or garden center as permitted use for the property at the time.
The original application made in 2018 estimated the cost of construction at $6.5 million.
Required parking for the 22 units is 88 stalls, four per unit. The proposal calls for 72 parking spots, a variance of 16 stalls or 18.2% from town code.
The decision on the application is still pending as of the August 25, 2022 Brookhaven Town Board Meeting.
