Witherell to hold open house of renovated space

After 21 months of renovation work, The Nathaniel Witherell, a short-term rehab and skilled nursing center in Greenwich, will host an open house Oct. 14, from 5 to 7 p.m., at 70 Parsonage Road. The open house will include refreshments, entertainment and tours of the facility.

The event will showcase the completion of the Witherell’s capital projects, with an estimated total cost of more than $26 million. The renovated nursing center will have 202 beds. A new cafe will also open with an outdoor deck. Each of the four floors will still have a dining hall. Other renovation projects include improving the quality of nursing care rooms and adding elevators.

The town, which owns the facility, approved a $21 million bond to fund the project.
