Developers seek public input on Jefferson Avenue proposals

The developers behind a pair of East Side projects on Jefferson Avenue are inviting residents from the surrounding neighborhoods to a community meeting in late June to discuss the proposed new apartment and medical buildings.
The development team – which includes Nick Sinatra and ImmediateCare founder Dr. Greg Daniel, as well as People Inc. and CSS Construction – will seek public input on their plans for the new Jefferson Health and Wellness Center and the Jefferson Avenue Apartments.

The partners have scheduled a forum for at 5:30 p.m. June 19 at the Frank E. Merriweather Jr. Branch Library at 1324 Jefferson Ave.

The two projects, which represent a total investment of $25 million, are separate but both seek to revive the historic Jefferson corridor. Originally intended as a single large development, they would be located on a three-block area just north of the Johnnie B. Wiley Amateur Sports Pavilion at Masten Park.
