Hartford HealthCare,
Yale to build $72M
cancer-treatment facility
Hartford HealthCare (HHC) and Yale
New Haven Health (YNHHS), the state's
two largest health systems, say they
are teaming up to build a $72-million,
25,000-square-foot radiation treatment
center in Wallingford.
The two health systems announced
they've asked the state Office of
Health Strategy to approve the
development at 932 Northrop Road,
so they can bring an advanced form
of cancer treatment, known as proton
beam therapy, to Connecticut.
HHC and YNHH have selected
Florida-based Proton International
as project manager and operator of
the new facility.
Hartford hosting minor-
league all-star game
The Hartford Yard Goats will host the
2021 Eastern League All-Star Game.
The multi-day event will take place
$20,000 and $80,000 less than they
would have in Avon or Farmington,
Lovely said.
And the houses Lovely has been
building in town are selling quickly,
he said.
All but six dwellings in a 94-
home development Lovely built on
the North Ridge golf course have
been sold, he said. The first of those
houses, which range in price from
$500,000 to $1 million, was pur-
chased in 2015.
Meantime, 38 people as of mid-
October were vying to buy one of 15
planned ranch houses off South End
Road. Lovely said the homes, which
will break ground next month and
start at about $359,000, will be part
of a 55-and-older community.
In all, Lovely has built more than
800 houses in town, including about
98 between 2015 and 2018.
"[It's] mostly families moving in,"
Lovely said. "A lot of young profes-
sionals buying their first home."
