MURAL Real Estate, a Black woman-led firm, is making history by co-leading a $316 million urban development project in Connecticut. This major project is set to transform the area with 470 new homes, retail hubs, and real community-centered spaces. It’s not just construction; it’s about building legacy and opportunities for the people who live there.

The project will bring together mixed-income housing, modern retail spaces, and green community areas to improve quality of life and strengthen local businesses. This is a bold step forward in urban planning that focuses on both economic growth and social impact.

The leadership of MURAL Real Estate in this development highlights a powerful shift in the real estate industry, where Black women are taking charge of projects that shape cities and change lives. Historically, large-scale development projects like this have been led by major corporate firms, but MURAL is proving that diverse leadership brings fresh ideas and inclusive solutions.

Community leaders and residents have shared their excitement for what’s to come. The addition of 470 homes will help ease housing challenges, while the new retail and green spaces will create a vibrant environment for families and entrepreneurs. Beyond buildings, the project will generate jobs and long-term opportunities for the local workforce.

“This project is about more than real estate; it’s about creating spaces where people feel proud to live, work, and connect,” said leaders at MURAL Real Estate.

With this development, Connecticut is seeing not just new infrastructure, but also the power of representation and the importance of Black-owned businesses in shaping future communities.
