Milford Economic Development Outlook

By -


MILFORD--H. Mangels is moving into a co-share space inside The Villa Gourmet's shop on River Street; It is most likely that SuziCakes Cupcakes (previously located in Woodmont) will take over the former H. Mangels site on River Street.

Smith Craft sold most of their buildings to a development group out of Arizona, Wolf Development. 

KBC Electronics Inc. has purchased an industrial building at 273 Pepes Farm Road in Milford for $630,000.  The firm acquired the 8,044-square-foot building, the former Baron Consulting headquarters, from Baron's founder Harry Agahigian.  The purchase converts KBC Electronics from a tenant in Orange into a building owner in Milford.

Baron will move its operations to a newly leased 3,200-square-foot building at 181 Research Drive in Milford. Its new location is equipped with a working laboratory, necessary for the firm's chemical analysis, environmental, biochemical, biotechnical and industrial hygiene testing operations.

Fairfield-based Angel Commercial represented all parties in the purchase and lease negotiations
American Custom, LLC, relocates to Milford from Fairfield through leasing approximately 3,000 SF of industrial space at 43 Eastern Steel Road. Founded in 1998, American Custom creates custom motorcycle exhaust pipes which control performance and sound to enable the rider to change the sound of their bike from loud and rumbling to street friendly. Angel Commercial represented both parties in this transaction.

Dan Bagley has acquired the building that his restaurant, Al Dente’s, was located at 128 Bridgeport Ave.  He plans on renovating and reopening a restaurant at that location.  

The following information was submitted by Economic Development Director Robert Gregory in a press release.

Milford's Unsolved Murders

By NJM -
After the June 11 arrest of Luis A. Rodriguez for the 2001 murder of Walnut Beach resident Kelsey Monahon, I got curious about other long-term unsolved homicides in Milford. So, I began digging through the New Haven Register's archives; I looked at all the murders in Milford that we have on record (dating back to the 1940s) and I came up with a list of 9* unfortunate souls whose murders are unsolved. Here are all the ones I could find in chronological order: -Peter Spinelli (1996) -Unidentified male remains (1994) -Unidentified male remains (1992) -Anna E. Hiltz (1983)** -Constance Roberts (1982)  -Blasé Miserendino (1978) -Gary Steadman (1977) -Kenneth Matteson (1975) -Charles McCoy (1968) Sometimes, homicides take a long, long time to solve. And sometimes, after a while, people come out of the woodwork with some scrap of evidence or memory that helps close a decades-old crime. I'm still working on the story, but I wanted to reach out to the Milf
