Supports Sun Valley expansion

Posted

To the Editor:

I own Mitchell’s Restaurant on Rockaway Avenue. I have recently been informed that the developers of Sun Valley Towers are interested in expanding the housing development. Allow me to express my excitement and support of the project, and I hope it becomes a reality.

Needless to say, the corner of Rockaway and Sunrise Highway has been an eyesore for years, and I am excited that a new complex is being built that will cater to a upper-middle class clientele. Throughout construction, I wondered why the developers stopped short and didn’t build over the remaining run-down buildings behind it. Now I am aware that they have their eyes set on those buildings, and should the powers that be approve said project, I think it will be an improvement for Rockaway Avenue.
