FULTON, N.Y. — River View Pediatrics, which operates at 63 S. First St. in Fulton, recently purchased the former Tops Market location at 909 W. First St. in Fulton with plans to make it the new location for the pediatric medical practice.
“This property, which has been vacant since 2018 and was a local supermarket for nearly 60 years, is getting a wonderful, new purpose helping the health and wellness of children in Fulton and surrounding communities,” Fulton Mayor Deana Michaels said. “We are extremely excited for the River View team and for the patients they serve, as well as the new jobs and growth they anticipate…”
River View is an equal partnership involving Drs. Sarah Finocchiaro, Carla Overton, and Christopher Delaney, per the City of Fulton’s announcement. Dr. Finocchiaro is the partnership president.

Finocchiaro expects construction to begin within the next few weeks and the goal is to open in March or April 2023.
“The support we’ve received from the city has been amazing,” she said. “Mayor Michaels has been super supportive every step of the way — even before we had decided on a location. This is the only place my partners and I want to be: serving our patients here in Fulton, my hometown and a place I love.”
River View Pediatrics will occupy the majority of the approximately 8,000-square-foot building. The structure also includes two separate 3,500-square-foot spaces flanking the main entrance for tenant businesses.
Construction, Design and Management (CDM) of Cicero is handling the construction work on the project, while in-ARCHITECTS, pllc of Syracuse designed the new offices.
“My partners and I are absolutely thrilled about our new location and the many benefits and comforts it will afford our patients,” Finocchiaro said. “Among these will be plenty of parking with no street traffic to contend with, as well as easy wheelchair and stroller access. In addition, the entrance lobby will be huge with a large separation between ‘well’ and ‘sick’ patients — something we just didn’t have the space for before. There will also be large bathrooms with changing tables and a private, separate room for nursing moms. This location is absolutely perfect for our needs, and for the growth we expect because of it.”
River View Pediatrics currently treats about 6,000 patients and is accepting new patients (ages 0-18).
