2026 Developing Long Island: The Alder at Valley Stream

Valley Stream, NY The Alder at Valley Stream brings a new 120,000 s/f, 132-unit senior residential community to the heart of Valley Stream, replacing a village-owned commuter parking field at West Valley Stream Blvd. and Hicks St. Designed as a thoughtfully connected residential environment, The Alder strengthens pedestrian connections between the village, the nearby park, the LIRR station and the library. The façade design complements the character of the surrounding neighborhood while establishing a distinct new presence in Valley Stream: a carefully curated palette of gray brick and wood-look aluminum creates warmth and texture, while a series of brick-clad elements with repeating angular gable forms draws inspiration from the area’s residential architecture and gives the building a dynamic architectural identity. The unit mix is 16 studios, 105 one-bedrooms and 11 two-bedrooms, with ten percent set aside as affordable workforce housing. Quality design is critical as Long Island’s downtowns continue to grow, and The Alder aims to raise the standard for multifamily development across the region.
