$100 million urban redevelopment
effort along the Byram River – Costco
was the first of several stores to make
their debut. Retail developers G&S
Investors soon secured other tenants
such as Bed, Bath & Beyond, Super
Stop & Shop and a 14-screen Loew’s
Cineplex – all located near a half-mile-
long pedestrian promenade. Kohl’s
discount department store is another
large retailer in the area.
Elsewhere in Port Chester, the
former Boston Post Road location
of New York United Hospital,
which closed in 2005, is part of a
1.1-million-square-foot redevelopment
project known as The Gateway. Plans
call for five residential towers together
with commercial and office space.
Port Chester’s downtown
Restaurant Row has gained a regional
reputation as “the restaurant capital
of Westchester,” offering international
cuisine at dozens of critically
acclaimed establishments such as
celebrity Chef Mario Batali’s Tarry
Lodge trattoria.
Port Chester is also building
additional soccer fields and park
amenities for the roughly 28,000
residents.
