An Even Closer Look at Size of Hotel/Retail/Office Development, With Corrections

A closer look at the original "scope" proposal for the Costello hotel/retail/office development, which the developer now refers to as "Clinton Crossings", indicates that I was in error to refer to 1,000,000 square feet of floor space. Total floor space looks to be about 280,000 square feet, conservatively. The buildings' footprints total approximately 180,000 square feet. The "more than" 1,000,000 square feet figure, which I was given, refers to the total area to be developed, including parking.

So back to the comparisons with other developments. Parking for "Clinton Crossings" is given as just over 3,400 spaces (I believe 3,420). Parking at Marketplace Mall is 5,500 and at Pittsford Plaza it is 2,250. Marketplace Mall building floor area and footprint too ( I believe) is just under 1,000,000 square feet. Pittsford Plaza has about 500,000 square feet of building floor area.
