The Century Sunrise redevelopment project, located at 135-139 Baldwin St. in the village of Johnson City, is a mixed-income, mixed-use redevelopment project.
It includes 104 residential units ranging from one- to three-bedroom apartments and a 3,500-square-foot, multi-level restaurant with garden space.

Regan Development will be responsible for overseeing all aspects of the development and operation of the project. The firm is a family-run business that has developed more than $384 million in residential and commercial real estate and affordable housing developments throughout New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, according to the release.
