[Ed. note: Recently, Kearney Realty & Development contracted with Resorts World Catskills to build over 100 workforce housing units on property located along County Route 17B at the Monticello racetrack.]

This project is going to play a crucial role in the future of economic development in Sullivan County. Investing in workforce housing is investing in Sullivan County residents, and this investment will be vital for young professionals looking to establish their roots here and for the businesses that rely on them. 

I want to thank every stakeholder who showed up to our roundtables over the last year with an enthusiasm to find solutions. This announcement wouldn’t be possible without your determination and collaboration. 

I’d also like to thank the leadership at Resorts World Catskills and Mr. Kearney for recognizing Sullivan County’s potential and putting in the work to bring this dream project to fruition. With these new units, Sullivan County will continue to build up our housing inventory, drive down the cost of living and support hundreds of jobs. 

And this is just the start. Together, we will continue building up Sullivan County and the entire 100th Assembly District and creating a destination for all New Yorkers to come and plant their roots.
