Two major development firms are planning new apartment projects in Stamford.
One project, submitted by 120 Long Ridge LLC, proposes to redevelop the 302,000-square-foot former Gen Re office building, at 120 Long Ridge Road, into a 196-unit apartment building.
120 Long Ridge LLC is controlled by two other limited liability companies whose principals are Carl and Paul Kuehner, the chairman and CEO, respectively, of major Stamford developer Building and Land Technology.
The building would have 23 studio units, 64 one-bedroom units and 109 two-bedroom units.
Two other limited liability companies — 120-C Long Ridge LLC and Toll Northeast V. Corp, a subsidiary of national developer Toll Brothers — have proposed building 102 units of housing on an adjacent 20.3-acre vacant parcel at 120-C Long Ridge Road.
Toll Northeast is under contract to buy the vacant parcel from 120-C Long Ridge LLC, the application said. 120-C Long Ridge LLC is also controlled by two limited liability companies whose principals are Carl and Paul Kuehner.
Toll Northeast plans to build “a for-sale common-interest community” that will include 44, two-story carriage homes and 58, three-story townhomes on the vacant parcel at 120-C Long Ridge Road. The units will have three or four bedrooms each and garage space, the application said.

“Each home may be customized by individual buyers with numerous internal and external design features and finishes to ensure every home is unique,” the application said. “The list of available options is extensive, but examples include fireplaces, extended living rooms, covered decks, and finished basements as well as kitchen and bathroom upgrades. To appeal to the projected demographic, each carriage home unit includes an option for a primary bedroom on the first floor.”
The development would also feature a clubhouse with a fitness center, club room, flex space, bike rack, and restrooms as well as an outdoor pool, the application stated.
The Zoning Board will review the applications at a later date.
