Sunrise Senior Living will be getting economic incentives from the Town of Hempstead Industrial Development Agency for its planned assisted living facility in Oceanside.
McLean, Va.-based Sunrise plans to build an 84-unit assisted living facility on a vacant lot at 374 Atlantic Ave. The $48.39 million project will bring a 77,430-square-foot building with 34 one-bedroom/studios and 50 two-bedroom units and 52 on-site parking spaces, according to an IDA statement.
The Oceanside project, which will provide assisted living, memory care and coordination of hospice care among other services, is expected to generate 150 construction jobs and 55 full-time permanent jobs within two years of the project’s completion.
“There is a strong need for assisted living facilities in Oceanside as well as neighboring communities,” Fred Parola, CEO of the Hempstead IDA, said in the statement. “This project will allow older residents to remain in the community with their friends and families.”
Sunrise recently received preliminary approval for economic incentives from the Suffolk County IDA for its planned assisted living project in East Northport. In that $54.6 million project, Sunrise plans to build a 90-unit, 77,500-square-foot assisted living and memory care facility on a 6.1-acre site at 1381-1387 Pulaski Road.
Sunrise Senior Living began over 41 years ago with a single community developed in 1981. The company has since built and operates more than 273 communities throughout the United States and Canada, including 10 existing communities on Long Island.
