Former WWE headquarters in Stamford to be turned into apartment building
As first reported by CT insider, the building has been sold to Branford-based MB Financial Group, with their CEO, Michael Massimino, explaining "the building is spectacular, it overlooks the Long Island sound and the Noroton River, you know being on the Darien and the Stamford (train) line, you can be right up route one, you're on and off the highway."

Two years after WWE moved out of its longtime headquarters at "Titan Towers," and into a new home on Washington Boulevard, plans have come out to turn the old building on East Main Street into apartments.
As first reported by CT Insider, the building has been sold to Branford-based MB Financial Group, with their CEO, Michael Massimino, explaining "the building is spectacular, it overlooks the Long Island sound and the Noroton River, you know being on the Darien and the Stamford (train) line, you can be right up route one, you're on and off the highway."
Massimino says MB Financial is picturing mostly larger units between one thousand and 1,200 square feet, with either two bedrooms, or one bedroom and a study.
"We plan on making it a destination as it relates to luxury multi-family buildings," he says.
That will include access to the old WWE employee roof deck, which he says has great views at any time of day.
While the building's history does not hurt marketing it, Massimino predicts that "once it's complete, and once everyone understands the location, the views, I think that in and of itself is going to stand out for itself."
Stamford residents we talked to agreed they were interested in the novelty and it would be cool to live there.
Even some, like Eddie Falcon, admitted "I don't think the prices would be in my range to rent, or even to buy but, it would be a good thing to like check out."
MB Financial says the inside of the building is still set up like an office right now, and they need to totally re-do it, targeting early 2027 for people moving in.
