Jun 24, 2026 | Business , Community , Government , Real Estate | 0 By Ken Valenti The Spinnaker Real Estate Partners development team debuted a revised plan for part of the former Hamlet site in Saugatuck with fewer units, greater setbacks and a corner plaza.
Architect Seelan Pather , managing partner of Beinfield Architecture, presenting the changes to the Architectural Review Board (ARB) in Town Hall, said the massing of the proposed six-story building had also been simplified to better reflect Westport design aesthetic. “We live in the area and we know it well, but you asked us to take another look, so we did take another look,” Pather said.
The proposal for 606 Riverside Ave. was last discussed by the ARB on June 2, the day after it was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission.

ARB members praised the changes, but some wanted them to go further.
