Tuxedo, NY Construction has begun on the Aufgang Architects-designed upscale multifamily residences, commercial and community space at Tuxedo Reserve, a 1,200-acre mixed-use development community in the Hudson Valley.

“Tuxedo Reserve is one of the region’s most ambitious developments,” said Ariel Aufgang, AIA, principal of Aufgang Architects.

“Our Aurae luxury division created something truly special here — a charming downtown that captures the essence of Hudson Valley living while providing important amenities and access for young professionals seeking an alternative to city life,” said Aufgang. “This project also showcases our urban planning expertise to create a community that enhances the quality of life for its residents.”

The downtown area, planned as Tuxedo Reserve’s Main St., includes four mixed-use multifamily buildings totaling 93 upscale apartments. 

Market Square and The Village, designed as the town center, will feature shopping, dining and year-round events. Amenities for the entire community include a high-end grocery and a café, a seasonal ice-skating rink that converts to public yoga and event space during warmer months, a pavilion for food trucks, surface parking and a fitness center with a basketball court, dance and yoga studios. The complex also features a four-lane lap pool, with hot tub and children’s play area.

Aufgang is working in partnership with The Related Companies, the developer of Market Square and The Village.

“Aurae, Aufgang’s luxury division, designed Market Square and the Village as an evolution in suburban living,” said Aufgang. “We’re creating spaces where residents can live and work, in a walkable downtown setting, amidst the natural beauty that makes the Hudson Valley so special.”

The four mixed-use buildings comprising Market Square and The Village feature three floors of one- and two-bedroom rental residential units, ranging from 700 to 1,400 s/f and 38,000 s/f of ground-floor commercial space. The apartments are designed with appealing features including spacious den areas and mudrooms with large entryway storage spaces for coats and outdoor gear. 

The development embraces environmental sustainability with 100% electric buildings and integration with the surrounding Sterling Forest State Park, including connecting walking trails. 

Construction is expected to be completed within 18 months. 

Located off Orange Tpke. near the Sloatsburg border in Orange County, Tuxedo Reserve offers access to the city.
