For months now, work has been quietly underway on the inside of Skyview on the Ridge…ten years after it shut down as the former Medley Centre Mall. Now that work is about to go public.
Developer Angelo Ingrassia says the project will kick off in a big way next week when construction crews descend on the site in Irondequoit to begin the external rebuilding. Ingrassia says in a statement that they’ll replace the roof, rebuild the two main entrances and convert 100,000 square feet of the former shopping center into a model space that prospective tenants can tour.
The property is already committed to house the new Irondequoit Community Center, which requires a public referendum for approval. It’s also got agreements with St. Anne’s Community to move its adult daycare program into Skyview. The rest is available for mixed residential-commercial development.
