I searched online and there doesn’t seem to be any current news. They were set to move forward in 2018 and then stalled. The most recent article I found said that they still plan on going through with the massive mixed commercial/residential project that is supposed to piggyback off of the city’s train station revitalization. Does anyone have any current news?

Well considering most existing retail malls are in a word of hurt, I'm going to go out on a limb and guess it's probably not moving forward. If for nothing else, nervous banks and investors.

@Steve Morris They don’t plan on making it a mall - it’s currently a mall that is almost completely vacant except for a DMV. Once the DMV moves out it’s supposed to be a high end condo high rise with retail on the lower floors. The last I heard anyway. It seems everything is stalled but the city is pushing to revitalize that area around the train station. I found another article that implied they’ll still be moving forward at some point but was hoping maybe someone had inside info.

This is White Plains which is about 30 minutes north of NYC on the Metro North line. It's a much smaller city but still pretty urban. I'm curious to see if people fleeing NYC will be attracted to it or see it as just another city.
