Rose Associates, BedRock to develop vacant hospital site in Port Chester

New York-based Rose Associates has snapped up the abandoned United Hospital site in Port Chester, LoHud reported. The developer plans to team up with New York-based BedRock Real Estate Partners on a mixed-use project that will include putting multifamily rental apartments aimed at “young professionals and residents without children,” the outlet reported. Starwood Capital Group had previously secured zoning approvals for a project at the 15.45-acre site that included a hotel offices, retail space and apartments, but ended up putting the property up for sale in 2017. Amy Rose, president and CEO of Rose Associates, told LoHud that her firm was “thrilled to embark on the complete redevelopment of this ideally located property and to deliver a project that truly benefits Port Chester and the surrounding community.” A local community group has welcomed the news of the new proposal for the former United Hospital, which closed more than a decade ago. [LoHud]
