The Blumenfeld Development Group, who are the new operators of Sun Vet Mall in Holbrook have submitted plans to the town of Islip to redevelop the long-struggling mall as a shopping center.
The Syosset-based company’s proposal includes demolishing sections of the mall, which would be reduced in size by 42%.
Public hearings must be scheduled on the redevelopment plans. The nearly vacant mall, built in 1973, has only four current tenants.
Blumenfeld, which signed a 99-year ground lease for the mall over the summer hopes to start redevelopment of the mall in 2023
