Watch out below! The Greenwich Post, my former paper and now not much more than a lightweight vehicle for Advertising ...
.... has run a cheery article on those new condominiums on the Byram River (I'd give you a direct link to the story itself but the Post hasn't figured out permalinks yet or else they fired the guy who had). "Greenwich Landing Makes a Splash", cries the headline and I suppose that if that term brings to mind the noise accompanying a dead sailor being slid into the waves it's accurate enough; so far as I can tell, reviewing the Greenwich Multiple Listing Service records, out of the twenty proposed units none have sold or are under contract, six are actively listed for sale and thirteen are presumably still under construction.
I had high hopes for this project because I thought it would help revive Byram but so far, things are looking a little depressed.

Greenwich Landing makes splash
The new Greenwich Landing, an exclusive townhome community listed with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, is changing the face of the Byram Riverfront in Greenwich. With a private marina nearby, Greenwich Landing offers waterfront living in a transforming neighborhood.
The condos are being built by brothers and Byram natives James and John Wahba, founding partners of Champion Development.
“Our roots are in Byram,” James said. “Growing up, I witnessed many changes take place. Today, it is an honor to create a desirable waterfront community that is also a cornerstone for future development in the area.”
The Greenwich Landing marina will accompany a riverfront boardwalk open to the public. The boardwalk is part of the Byram Neighborhood Association’s master plan for landscape improvements and neighborhood enhancements.....More From For What It's Worth:
