Letter to the Editor: Soundview Prep Redevelopment is Exactly What Yorktown Heights Needs

We are part of The Trust Project

With the new year beginning, small businesses in Yorktown Heights have something to look forward to.

The proposed redevelopment of Soundview Prep, with preservation of its historic building, new walking trails and a pedestrian gateway at the estate’s original entrance at the corner of Route 118 and Underhill Avenue, will provide a shot in the arm for the businesses located in the hamlet’s central business district.

For businesses like mine that are located right across the street, the prospect of people living in beautiful new homes and open space for the public to enjoy means one thing: new customers.

For the small business community in Yorktown Heights, this is exactly what we have needed and the sooner the better.
