"It's strategically located within 16 miles of nine area hospitals, and is surrounded by densely populated residential neighborhoods on Long Island."
The two-story medical office building, which was completely renovated in 2009, is located at 1728 Sunrise Highway and includes: multiple waiting rooms; 12 examination rooms; five patient consultation rooms; an x-ray room; fluoroscopy suite; newly refurbished MRI suite and six private offices.

Capital Square is focused on the acquisition of medical office buildings leased by leading medical practices.
