The owner of a forthcoming strip mall addition to the Green Cove shopping center at 90 Northern Boulevard in Greenvale said the project could be completed by the late summer and open for business by the early fall.
Neal Kaplan, a managing partner of the Woodbury-based Kabro Associates, LLC., which owns the shopping center as well as others across Long Island, said two tenants have been found to fill the 6,800 square-foot building, Anthony’s Coal Fire Pizza and the Nassau Education Federal Credit Union. Kaplan did not disclose the cost of the project.
Anthony’s Coal Fire Pizza, based in Florida, also has locations in Kabro-owned shopping centers in Carle Place and Woodbury, Kaplan said.
“We own many shopping centers on Long Island and seek out what we think is the right tenant for the right space on a day-to-day basis,” Kaplan said. “Those two work well for that area.”
Construction to the vacant area of the shopping center, which also includes the Equinox Fitness Club, a Moe’s Southwest Grill, a TJ Maxx clothing store and Lester’s clothing store, began in March after receiving the final approval from the Town of North Hempstead last fall, Kaplan said.
“It’s an excellent location in the second busiest intersection on Long Island, it has an affluent population, and it’s the kind of location that retailers look for,” Kaplan said. “There’s a great demand for retailers coming into that kind of market.”
Kabro also owns the strip mall near the intersection of Town Path and Glen Cove Road, Kaplan said, but does not control the freestanding Burger King or Wendy’s fast food restaurants or Astoria Federal Savings Bank.
Subsequent parking spaces, drainage and septic systems are planned to accommodate the building, Kaplan said, and extensive landscaping to the area is planned once the building is finished.
