Founder’s Square, Windsor

Founders Square marks the next chapter in the revitalization of Historic Windsor Center, transforming one of the downtown’s most prominent and strategically located sites. Once home to a distinctive collection of historic buildings, the site was cleared in the mid-20th century for an auto-oriented commercial center. The redevelopment reimagines the property with three thoughtfully designed building volumes that restore a strong street presence, reinforce the pedestrian scale of downtown, and preserve select existing retail structures while drawing on the historic character of the site.

Located just 500 feet from Windsor’s Amtrak/Hartford Line station, Founders Square is designed around connectivity and walkability. Residents and visitors will have convenient access to regional transit, the Farmington River, public parks, and the shops, restaurants, and amenities that make Historic Windsor Center a vibrant destination. The project represents a meaningful investment in Windsor’s downtown—bringing new energy, activity, and a renewed sense of place to a site with deep roots in the community.
