BRIDGEPORT, CT — The Bridgeport Rescue Mission purchased the former Astoria Park Nursing Home on Park Avenue for $2.15 million.

The location will be used as a community care center.

The building is more than 61,000 square feet. Angel Commercial acted on behalf of the seller and Baldwin Pearson & Company Inc. represented BRM.
