The site at 700 Davenport Ave. consists of nearly 15 acres between the New Rochelle Creek and New Rochelle Harbor. It has a market value of about $10 million, according to lohud.com.

Among those calling the peninsula home is the Beckwith Pointe Club, a beach club that has been at the location for nearly 30 years, according to lohud.com.

Zinrock Resources, the developer that appears to be the most likely to attempt to purchase the property, has contacted the City Council through a letter from its attorney, according to lohud.com.
