HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. — November 14, 2012 — Mill Creek Residential, a leading multifamily developer, investor and operator specializing in premier apartment communities across the U.S., today announced that its newest development, Metro 303, a transit-oriented luxury rental community in the heart of Long Island’s Nassau County, is open for leasing. The property has apartments available for immediate occupancy.

VIP tours are now being offered at Metro 303, located at 303 Main Street in Hempstead, NY. This brand-new community features a total of 166 upscale rental residences that offer a mix of studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts within a four-story building with two levels of enclosed private garage parking for residents. The community, which has been designed to achieve Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold certification, was recently honored with the 2012 Award for Housing Choices by Vision Long Island in recognition of its role in furthering the diversification of much-needed housing options on Long Island.   Designed to meet the demand for housing located near walkable downtowns and mass transportation, the community is located within walking distance of the Country Life Press LIRR station in Garden City and the multi-modal Hempstead LIRR and bus station in the Village of Hempstead.  Bordering the Village of Garden City, the community is also walking distance to both Garden City and Hempstead downtown shopping and restaurant districts.
