MAYOR STATEMENT ON SITES UNDER CONSIDERATION FOR NEW COURTHOUSE

Published on October 11, 2022

HARTFORD, CONN (October 11, 2022) – Today, Mayor Luke Bronin released a statement following the news that the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) is considering three sites as the potential location for a new federal courthouse in Hartford.

“We appreciate the federal government’s commitment to building a new courthouse in Hartford, and in the right location and with the right design, a courthouse could compliment our economic development work.  That said, it would be a shame to put a tax exempt courthouse in a location where there are active efforts underway to pursue taxable residential development, and we look forward to working with the GSA and our federal partners as the site selection process moves forward.”
