New Electric Vehicle Charging Station Installed at Constitution Park

Larchmont’s electric vehicle charger initiative is now complete. Following installations at the Addison Lot and Wendt Avenue Lot 10, the final dual-port charging station is now active on Larchmont Avenue in front of Constitution Park.

This initiative to bring electric vehicle charging stations to the community has been several years in the making, introduced by the Larchmont Environmental Committee and supported by the Larchmont Village Board of Trustees.

The Village received a grant through the Zero-Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Grant program from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation to purchase and install these chargers. Village resident Michael Gottfried and the Larchmont Environmental Committee were instrumental in securing this funding.

How to Use: For convenience, electric vehicle parkers using the charging stations pay for the charge and parking entirely through the EV machine, so there’s no need to walk over to the parking meter to pay! Only electric vehicles can park during the day, and vehicles must be actively plugged into the charger while parked.
