Chipotle Mexican Grill Taking Shape at Danbury Fair Mall

Just about every building permit a restaurant can take out is open and pending at the new Chipotle Mexican Grill under construction at the Danbury Fair Mall.

"Nothing is closed yet. It isn't opening any day soon," said Sean Hearty, permit center director at Danbury City Hall.

Chipotle has permits out for its signs, food service, Zoning, Building, Fire, Plumbing, Electric and Fire Suppression.

"They're all pulled," said Hearty.

Chipotle replaces Uno Chicago Grill, which operated on the lower level of the Danbury Fair Mall on the Macy's end of the mall.

Chipotle Mexican Grills are open in Connecticut in Fairfield, Darien, Milford, Greenwich, New Haven, Hamden and Canton.
