   "what_happened": "200 Connecticut Ave. (Norwalk, CT) is an office building, not a mall, opened 1977 with 130,000 sq ft GLA. It is approved for retrofit in 2026 to convert the top three floors into 35 housing units while retaining office use. Developer Paul Lisi plans construction to begin in 2026. The Norwalk Planning & Zoning Commission approved the plan. The site is within 2.6 km of three proposed office/housing projects (101-201 Merritt 7) and 4.8 km from an operating retail site. Median rent data ($2,060) is cited in the opportunity reasons. The site is not a former mall (recorded as 'office-park' type). No traffic access details specific to the site are provided. The retrofit strategy 'reinhabit' aligns with five peer projects in Connecticut. The record lacks site location details within Norwalk, specific construction start date, and exact housing unit mix beyond the top-floor conversion.",
   "why": "The assessment uses only the provided record: confirms office building status (not mall), cites approved 2026 retrofit scope, notes developer and planning approval, references peer projects and median rent as per record, and clarifies missing details (e.g., no site location specifics). No external knowledge or assumptions are added.",
