Waveny To Sell Vacant .74-Acre Parcel on Oenoke Ridge

By |

A venerable nonprofit organization is preparing to sell a vacant parcel near downtown New Canaan, officials say. Waveny LifeCare Network or ‘WLN’—a 1975-established provider of a continuum of care, including independent, assisted and memory care living, at-home and in-patient short-term physical rehabilitation, therapy and nursing care and hospice services—owns an undeveloped .74-acre property, located behind a house on Oenoke Ridge, roughly between the New Canaan Museum & Historical Society and St. Mark’s Episcopal Church campuses. 

According to an Oct. 7 letter sent to St. Mark’s parishioners, WLN last month notified the church “of their intent to sell” the parcel, under a right-of-first-opportunity clause included in the “extremely favorable terms” of Waveny’s 1993 acquisition of the land from the church.
