Supervisor Daniel J. Panico, alongside Councilman Neil Manzella and representatives from The Crest Group, participated in the groundbreaking ceremony for The Villas at Oak Run in Middle Island on May 30. The event also saw attendance from the Middle Island Civic Association and local residents.
The project, spearheaded by The Crest Group, will feature 37 duplex buildings covering a total area of 93,138 square feet. Each unit will include two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a one-car garage. Amenities planned for the community include an indoor fitness center, a half-mile walking path, and an outdoor recreation area with pickleball courts. Importantly, twenty percent of the townhomes are designated as affordable and workforce housing to provide reduced monthly rents for qualifying residents.
“This project reflects continued progress in the revitalization of Middle Island,” said Supervisor Panico. “It brings much-needed housing options for our senior population while also ensuring affordability for a portion of our workforce. I thank The Crest Group for their investment in this community and their efforts to deliver a well-balanced development.”
Councilman Michael Loguercio expressed his enthusiasm by stating, “Welcome Villas at Oak Run to Middle Island, and congratulations on your groundbreaking today! This will be a beautiful addition to the community once completed, and I look forward to their Ribbon Cutting in the near future.”
