The adaptive reuse of this former factory was the first CIL project developed under its for-profit subsidiary, CIL Development Incorporated. Town officials had identified this structure, first built in the late 19th Century, as a key in adding residential density to its town center. As it bordered the town center and the Farmington River conservation area, it offered an unusual combination of village charm with a bucolic environment.
With units ranging in size from 900 to 1,650 square feet, and in price from $180,000 to $300,000, First Town Square appealed to a broad demographic. The buyers were evenly distributed between younger professionals buying their first home, married couples with no children, empty nesters, and elderly town residents who were downsizing from single-family homes.
