An entire shopping center will have to be displaced to make room for a planned transit facility in Wyandanch, according to an environmental assessment released by the Town of Babylon.
But the owner of the shopping center said she had not been told of the assessment and does not want to sell.
The transit facility is part of the massive downtown revitalization "Wyandanch Rising." The development near the LIRR station will include a six-level parking structure that will serve as a transportation hub, accommodating train and bus riders. Adjoining it will be a 2.6-acre public plaza with seating, green space and bike racks.
