Construction Plans for WWE’s Former Titan Towers in Stamford Revealed

The iconic former WWE headquarters in Stamford is officially set for a major glow-up—and this time, it’s not about wrestling.

According to the Stamford Advocate, New plans have been filed with the city’s Land Use Bureau to redevelop the now-vacant building at 1241 E. Main Street—once known as Titan Towers—into 84 upscale apartment units. The four-story structure, which served as WWE’s global headquarters for over three decades, will be getting a complete makeover courtesy of MB Financial Group, the real estate firm that scooped up the property in January for $3.75 million.

Attorney Lisa Feinberg, who represents the developers, said the project fits perfectly with the city’s evolving vision:

“The demand for such office space has decreased over the years… The city’s long-term planning guide encourages the conversion of under-performing office space into housing.”

The redesign will include a new limestone and aluminum exterior, while preserving the building’s original curtain glass wall. Inside, the transformation includes a game room, fitness center, co-working space, pool, terrace, and rooftop deck, all aimed at attracting high-end tenants.

And there’s more—developers plan to add landscaping improvements and eliminate 203 of the building’s 318 parking spots, leaving 115 spaces total. The goal? A sleek residential footprint with minimal disruption to the area’s look.

“The proposed development will provide greatly needed housing supply, including a contribution to affordable housing, without any visual impact to the surrounding area,” Feinberg added.

Six units are planned as below-market rate, though the developers have also left the door open to opt out of that by paying a fee into the city’s affordable housing fund instead.

WWE officially moved out of the building earlier this year, relocating to downtown Stamford and removing the giant red logo that had long been visible to I-95 commuters. The East Main property was built in 1981 and became synonymous with wrestling’s global expansion in the 90s and 2000s under Vince McMahon.

“The location is superb,” MB Financial CEO Michael Massimino said at the time of purchase, pointing to its views of Long Island Sound as a major selling point.

No date has been set yet for city agency review, but the project signals the final chapter in the building’s WWE legacy—and the beginning of a high-end residential future.
