Health Care Coming To A Shopping Center Near You

BRONX, NY (October 12, 2021) — Consumers are increasingly traveling to shopping centers for a checkup or vaccine as health care providers seek more convenient locations, said Joseph Simone of Simone Development Companies.

“Across the country, health providers are converting former Sears buildings in shopping centers into ambulatory surgical centers, hospitals and doctors’ offices,” said Joe Simone, President of Simone Development Companies. “CVS Health’s announcement earlier this year that it will remake hundreds of its stores into primary care clinics will bring health care to even more shopping centers nationwide.”

Simone Development Companies anticipated the delivery of healthcare at shopping centers with the adaptive reuse of the Boyce Thompson Center, an 85,000 square-foot, mixed-use center with doctors’ offices, restaurants and retail in Yonkers, N.Y.

“Redeveloping shopping centers and strip malls with health care tenants makes sense because these properties are already designed to handle high-traffic uses and they provide ample parking,” said Simone. “More importantly, these local shopping centers are typically situated within walking distance or an easy commute from residential neighborhoods.”

It is unclear how many Sears locations are being converted for health uses, but there are examples of this conversion nationwide, including Selinsgrove, Penn.; Garden City, N.Y.; and Riverside, Calif. Simone noted that CVS Health’s goal to turn hundreds of its stores into primary care centers poses challenges to medical networks whose patients must wait weeks for routine health services.

“The CVS announcement is triggering a reconsideration of site uses everywhere. The recent decision by Yale New Haven Health System to build an ambulatory care center in a shuttered Macy’s store in Meriden, Conn. is an example of large health networks responding to CVS’s retail health strategy,” said Joseph Simone. “This shopping center land rush by health providers is a boon for health facility builders like Simone Development Companies.”

Joe Simone of Simone Development Companies Sees Trend Accelerating for Healthcare Facilities in Retail Settings

The delivery of healthcare in retail settings continues to accelerate beyond urgent care centers to include major medical practices, according to Joe Simone, President of Simone Development Companies Simone Development Companies.

Several years ago, Joe Simone, recognized this trend when he developed the Boyce Thompson Center, an innovative 85,000 square-foot mixed-use center in Yonkers, N.Y. with a consumer-driven retail model for healthcare. The Boyce Thompson Center successfully combined trendy dining destinations and other high-traffic retail with medical practices in a historic building that was adaptively reused.

Simone’s concept proved appealing to St. John’s Riverside Hospital and the Westmed Medical Group, which became the Boyce Thompson Center’s anchor tenants. The commitment from these two medical anchor tenants subsequently attracted ENT Allergy Associates, ColumbiaDoctors, Westchester Gastroenterology, Juvanni Med Spa, Metro Vein, among others.

The adaptive reuse of this historic 1920s botanical research center earned a Westchester Municipal Planning Federation’s 2017 urban planning award. The Boyce Thompson Center has become a prototype for future mixed-use healthcare developments.

“The medical move to a retail setting is driven by patients who want an enhanced physical space where there are opportunities to shop, dine, and have access to other personal services such as restaurants, banking and clothing shops,” said Joe Simone.

Across the country, there are similar models as owners of outdated and vacant commercial buildings repurpose them for healthcare tenants. Once again, Joe Simone is leading the way. In Harrison, NY, Simone is converting a vacant office building into a pediatric specialty care facility to be leased to Montefiore Health System.
