this could be something for YIMBY to watch… New Rochelle is a short trip from the city and a recently approved redevelopment plan will allow its burgeoning skyline to continue its rise. According to LoHud’s Journal News, the master developer is already planning a new high rise to begin this transformation of the city’s downtown area. [**LoHud: Downtown New Rochelle overhaul could start with historic building**](http://www.lohud.com/story/news/local/westchester/new-rochelle/2016/01/11/downtown-new-rochelle-overhaul-could-start-historic-building/78511936/) [QUOTE]RDRXR, the city’s master developer, is eyeing the defunct movie theater, at 587-599 Main St., as the site for a 24-to-28 story, mixed-use retail, office and residential development under a recently-approved zoning change. That rezoning paves the way for developers to build new restaurants, retail and 5,500 residential units in downtown New Rochelle over a 10-year period.[/QUOTE] The skyline of New Rochelle, photo by David Oppenheimer [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/5/a/5ab4691325d58e3edeaa0654157ed99bcf98fb48.jpeg)](https://flic.kr/p/D91CKV)[New Rochelle, New York](https://flic.kr/p/D91CKV) by [David Oppenheimer](https://www.flickr.com/photos/livemusicphotography/), on Flickr ---
