Downtown Brewster Urban Renewal – Putnam County, NY

Herrick is representing owners whose properties will be seized by eminent domain in connection with the downtown Brewster redevelopment plan. The Brewster redevelopment project consists of the revitalization of the blighted area situated in downtown Brewster, Putnam County, NY. Herrick’s clients are being asked to sell their properties to the developer for this project under threat of eminent domain. We represent both owners and commercial tenants (who have their own claims for compensation, separate from their landlords) in all aspects of negotiation with the Village of Brewster and the developer, whether it be a sale in lieu of condemnation or a claim for additional compensation in eminent domain litigation.
