As part of its comprehensive strategy to expand access to the highest-quality care across Long Island, NYU Langone Health today announced plans to build a world-class, state-of-the-art academic medical center in Melville, near the border of Nassau and Suffolk Counties.
The new campus will include a modern hospital with more than 500 private inpatient rooms, more than 70 emergency department bays, and advanced operating and procedure suites with the latest diagnostic imaging capabilities. Reflecting NYU Langone’s integrated approach to healthcare, the site will also include the tuition-free NYU Grossman Long Island School of Medicine and space to conduct leading scientific research. A significant ambulatory footprint around the new campus will further enhance access to comprehensive outpatient care. The multiyear project is subject to extensive state and local approvals.
The new Melville campus will be located in the Town of Huntington, in western Suffolk County. On May 21, NYU Langone completed its purchase of a 45-acre parcel at the Huntington Quadrangle in Melville, just southeast of where the Long Island Expressway meets New York State Route 110, at a total cost of $135.5 million.
“This is one of the most ambitious and exciting projects ever undertaken by NYU Langone,” said Alec C. Kimmelman, MD, PhD, dean and CEO of NYU Langone. “The benefits to Long Island—a community I grew up in, and one that our institution cares deeply about—will allow us to better serve patients across Nassau and Suffolk Counties with the highest-quality care, in a modern facility that offers the latest technologies. We are committed to working with local officials, hearing from the community, and continuing to grow our presence all across the island.”
