Several new housing projects are underway in Clarkstown, and the supervisor is looking at the future of an old Rockland County eyesore in New City that recently got the green light to be put up for sale and possible redevelopment. Rockland County Legislator Lon Hofstein says the building was officially designated as surplus Wednesday night, paving the way for a future sale. Clarkstown supervisor George Hoehmann says he’s looking forward to getting something that would bring in tax dollars to replace the old Sain Building on New Hempstead Road, which has ben closed since 2017…
Other projects underway in Clarkstown include a senior housing facility across from the A+ on North Main Street, the re-design of the Main Street Shop Rite, and a housing project in West Nyack on a former farm off Parrott and Germonds Roads near Felix Festa Middle School. Hoehmann says the town also got a state grant to cover almost all the demolition and asbestos removal costs at the former Grace Baptist Church in Nanuet. Hoehmann says several developers have already submitted proposals that will be considered.
