A proposed resort project on Notch Road in North Adams, Mass., has received an extension until May 2025 to start construction, according to The Berkshire Eagle.Â
The New York development company’s permit for the proposed project near Mount Greylock State Reservation was set to expire this spring. Ben Crespi, the manager of the developer 196 Marine LLC, this week asked the North Adams Planning Board for the additional two years.
“The past two years have been challenging to underwrite the project, from a feasibility standpoint with construction costs skyrocketing, interest rates skyrocketing,” he told the board. “And fundamentally we are trying to solve how to do a project where you can only use it half the time. The infrastructure is quite expensive for seasonal use.”
