Latimer unveils ‘John Carey Place,’ renaming

portion

In celebration of the life and legacy of the late Honorable John Carey, Westchester County Executive George Latimer has renamed a portion of Playland Parkway to “John Carey Place.”

Carey passed away in October 2019 at the age of 95 after a long, distinguished career in public service, and John Carey Place has been permanently named in his honor.

Carey was a veteran of World War II, served as Mayor of the City of Rye as well as City Councilman, was a gifted attorney and legal scholar of international human rights law, a Westchester County Judge and Acting

of

county property

Supreme Court Judge. He was appointed to the United Nations Subcommission on the Prevention of Discrimination and the Protection of Minorities, where he served for nearly 25 years.

Carey is well known for being a strong coalition builder, and for his acquisition of Rye Golf Club and a public beach next to Playland Amusement Park. The Westchester County Board of Legislators unanimously passed legislation for the naming of “John Carey Place.”

Latimer said: “John Carey held a long and distinguished career in public service – a Judge, Mayor, City Councilman and activist for

so many important causes, a true public servant in every sense of the word. He was a man of many accomplishments, and he shared his life, his talents and his spirit with everyone he touched. It is fitting that this portion of County property adjacent to Playland be named in his honor, so future generations of residents will remember his lasting contributions to the City he loved so much.”

The section of the Playland Parkway that is now John Carey Place extends from Rye Beach Avenue, and runs along the beach and pool parking lot north to the intersection at the upper circle of Playland Park in Rye.

“Let’s Get Fiscal! – How Real Estate and Finance Trends Are Reshaping Westchester’s Economy” was presented virtually June 1 and featured Nikki Greenberg, founder and Chief Innovation Officer, Real Estate of the Future; Al Gutierrez, Managing Director, Brokerage, JLL; and Melinda White, Commercial Banking Leader, Hudson Valley, Wells Fargo. The discussion was moderated by Dr. Joshua Harris, a real estate economist and investment strategist who is Managing Partner of the Lakemont Group and an adjunct professor at Fordham’s Real Estate Institute.

Harris set the stage by looking at the ‘yield curve inversion,’ where short-term rates are higher than longterm, and the impact on real estate. He noted the U.S. Treasury one-month rate is at 5.2% while the 10-year –which sets the tone for mortgage rates and commercial real estate valuation – is at 3.6%.

“We’ve seen interest rates go up in the last 12 months at one of the fastest clips the Fed has ever managed to do,” Harris said. “This is occurring under a landscape of recovery in a post-Covid world, which is unique for a place like Westchester – one of most storied suburban commuter zones to New York City.”

He asked the panel if Westchester is benefitting from work-from-home and other “turmoil” in Manhattan.

“Historically, Westchester was a recipient of many headquarters coming out of NYC, looking for a better way of work and life. Then we saw a pull back toward the urban setting,” said Gutierrez. “Now there’s ques -

tions about occupancy – do they need to be in NYC? Should we be thinking of more regional offices? Westchester, from a locational standpoint, is wellpoised to benefit.”

Gutierrez added the challenge for Westchester is its “dated” office buildings: “There’s a lot of reinvestment that needs to be done in order to attract those occupants out of NYC.”

Harris shifted the conversation to transit-oriented development (TOD) – noting progress in Yonkers, New Rochelle and Port Chester – and asked whether Westchester’s real estate community is up to the task of providing that product going forward.

“Multifamily housing is a sweet spot in real estate right now,” said White. “The limiting factor is the economics – with the current interest rates, can these projects pencil out? We’re seeing projects on hold, not due to a lack of capital but to the costs of construction and to carry.”

Greenberg, a futurist and innovation strategist, pointed to Gen Z as a target for TOD. “They’re a generation with different expectations and definitely want to be homeowners,” she said. “They love technology and also care very deeply about the environment. It’s a natural fit for them to want to live close to where they work, or at least near highly connected transport.”

Harris asked how changes in access to capital are affecting the office market, in terms of expansions, reconfigurations and other capital expenditures.

“Office space is a tough market. Everything is case by case, of course, and if there’s a good story to tell there’s an appetite,” White said. “Investors are very cautious about putting more money into buildings ... owners are having to reach into their pockets, which becomes a downward cycle: if they don’t have the liquidity to put money in, there’s an inability to see FORDHAM 8

LMC Media is Recipient of 2023 Junior League grant

Media is excited to be the recipient of a $1,500 grant to support the summer semester of the Future Filmmaker program. The funds will serve to help LMC continue to grow the pilot program with the goal of expanding in the 2023/2024 school year.

Nicole Rusinowicz, President of JLWOS, said, “On behalf of the Junior League of Westchester on the Sound, we are thrilled to support LMC’s Future Filmmaker program with a grant of $1,500. We can’t wait to see how this program grows, and we’re so pleased to be able to contribute to this important STEAM opportunity for area students.”

“We’re so excited to receive this grant from the Junior League of Westchester on the Sound,” said Matt Sullivan, executive director of LMC. “This is further confirmation that we’re moving in the right direction with the program, and this grant provides much needed financial support that will allow us to keep building the program through the summer.”

About the program: Each semester, a local high school student is chosen to serve as LMC’s resident student filmmaker, and

any interested student can apply. Students are hired by LMC and given access to a full suite of filmmaking equipment. Students can create, film, and edit on their own schedule during their residency, which makes this opportunity more accessible to today’s busy students. In addition to equipment, LMC also provides pre-production, production, and post-production guidance from professional filmmaking staff, as well as a budget, actors, and filming schedule with deadlines. This program is unique — there are no other programs in the Sound Shore area that provide a direct pipeline from high school filmmaking programs to a paid, professional experience like the Future Filmmaker residency. Students complete three short films during their residency and receive stipends for each. This program not only provides a professional framework for students to gain real-world experience, it gives voice to the teen experience and brings their vision of the community into the spotlight.

Iona Prep celebrates 104th Commencement

Iona Preparatory’s Upper School graduated 163 young men during its 104th Commencement exercises on Thursday, May 25 at its ancestral home of Iona University.

Robert H. McCooey Jr., Class of 1983 and a Rye resident, served as the keynote speaker and 2023 Alumni Award Winner. The 2018 Iona Prep Hall of Famer and father of three Gaels, McCooey was the Alumni Association president from 1997-1999. Two years later he was appointed to the Iona Prep Board of Directors and served our school for a remarkable 12 years. He is a former board member of the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Foundation, the Securities Industry Automation Corporation, and the National Organization of Investment Professionals. He currently serves as a Board Member at St. Vincent’s Hospital, Westchester, and for Youth INC.

Today, McCooey is Vice Chairman of Nasdaq, responsible for leading business development for new listings in both Latin America and Asia Pacific, as well

as overseeing relationship management with companies throughout their corporate lifecycle. Prior to joining Nasdaq in 2006, McCooey founded and served as the Chief Executive Officer of The Griswold Company brokerage firm.

The roughly 90-minute ceremony featured valedictory and salutatory addresses from Gregory Johnston, 17, of New Rochelle, and Alessandro Caio Adornetto, 17, of Yonkers, respectively.

A Peer Minister and member of the Leadership Committee, Johnston graduates with a 100.41 GPA. He was president of the Bring Change To Mind Club, co-president of the Biology Club and a singles player on the tennis team. Johnston will be attending the University of South Carolina Honors College this fall, majoring in biological sciences on the pre-med track with plans to become a physician.

Advanced Placement and eight Honors classes. He is the president of National Honor Society and a member of the National Science Honor Society and National Italian Honor Society, as well as an AP Scholar. Adornetto is also the president of the Chemistry Club, vice president of the STEM Club and the Fratelli d’Italia secretary. He has authored and self-published an introductory book on theoretical physics and is a member of the three-year Science Research Program, studying Brownian particle self-assembly. Adornetto will attend the University of Pennsylvania in the fall.

Collectively, the Class of 2023 has amassed more than $35 million in academic scholarships, with more than 82% of the graduates receiving merit-based awards averaging $60,000 per scholarship – meaning an Iona Preparatory education all but pays for itself. Over the last 10 years, graduating classes have earned nearly a quarter of a billion in scholarship.

Why you need dental insurance in retirement.

Many Americans are fortunate to have dental coverage for their entire working life, throughemployer-provided benefits. When those benefits end with retirement, paying dental bills out-of-pocket can come as a shock, leading people to put off or even go without care. Simply put — without dental insurance, there may be an important gap in your healthcare coverage.

you’re comparing plans...

 Look for coverage that helps pay for major services. Some plans may limit the number of procedures — or pay for preventive care only.

 Look for coverage with no deductibles. Some plans may require you to pay hundreds out of pocket before benefits are paid.

 Shop for coverage with no annual maximum on cash benefits. Some plans have annual maximums of $1,000.

Medicare doesn’t pay for dental

care.1

That’s right. As good as Medicare is, it was never meant to cover everything. That means if you want protection, you need to purchase individual insurance.

Early detection can prevent small problems from becoming expensive ones.

The best way to prevent large dental bills is preventive care. The American Dental Association recommends checkups twice a year.

Previous dental work can wear out. Even if you’ve had quality dental work in the past, you shouldn’t take your dental health for granted. In fact, your odds of having a dental problem only go up as you age.2

Treatment is expensive — especially the services people over 50 often need.

Consider these national average costs of treatment ... $217 for a checkup ... $189 for a filling ... $1,219 for a crown.3 Unexpected bills like this can be a real burden, especially if you’re on a fixed income.

“I don’t worry”

“Now that I have your dental policy, I don’t worry about going to the dentist. I love your plan — you pay what you say!”

attract good tenants.”

The panel also shared insights into remote-work trends and how that is reshaping real estate.

“We can’t group every person and organization into one bucket – that’s causing a lot of contradictory evidence about productivity and expectations,” said Greenberg. “Today, because the technology we use for work is portable and companies’ information is stored in the cloud, it has opened up more options. Companies are empowered to make unique decisions about how and where work gets done.”

As for the impact a recession would have on Westchester, the panel agreed it could be a period of opportunity to “rethink, reassess and re-invest.”

“There’s a lot of capital out there that has yet to be deployed,” said Gutierrez. “We’re going to see opportunistic investors looking at assets that are on the brink of foreclosure, as land-banking opportunities for redevelopments. One of the things that has ameliorated downturns in Westchester are alternative industries – health care, life

sciences and education, which are at the forefront of occupying much of the obsolete space in the market.”

“This insight is so important as we begin to plan for 2024 and beyond,” said Business Council of Westchester President and CEO Dr. Marsha Gordon. “What happens in the commercial real estate market in the Hudson valley, NYC and the broader region affects all of the business community in Westchester.”

“We’re proud to collaborate with The Business Council of Westchester and bring together top minds to help us all stay ahead of the curve,” said Dr. Anthony R. Davidson, dean, Fordham University School of Professional and Continuing Studies (PCS). “The way in which we live and work is constantly changing, and our mission is to offer degree, professional and corporate training programs that meet those changes.”

Davidson noted that as part of the PCS mission to support the Westchester community, the school has launched a “Good Neighbor Initiative,” which provides an automatic 30% tuition reduction for undergraduate degree-seeking students enrolled in PCS at Fordham’s Westchester campus who live within the campus’ “neighbor” zip codes at the time they apply.

The Speakers gave an afternoon rock concert at Cerebral Palsy of Westchester’s David G. Osterer Center last Tuesday, performing original songs and classic covers that had the lively audience dancing, clapping and singing along to their beat. The Sam Bright Side Band opened the show. The concert, sponsored by Elmsford’s Lagond Music School, provided adults living with disabilities an opportunity to enjoy a live music performance with their peers.

has a deep meaning for the band. Prieto explains, “The Speakers are speaking up for musicians with disabilities who are often overshadowed, shunned, left in the dark due to their condition, not knowing the many talents we musicians with disabilities have to share with the world.”

The Speakers are a Westchester-based professional musical group who happen to include a number of young adults living with disabilities, performing music that both entertains and inspires. Their concert, in front of members and staff of CPW’s Adult Day Habilitation Program, opened with I Love Rock and Roll, featuring drummer Sam Glucksman. The CPW audience was immediately hooked, and the concert quickly turned into a party with much singing along and dancing in the aisles. During one original song, the chorus reverberated through the crowd: “without you, the audience, there is no live music!” After the last song, The Speakers signed autographs and promised to return. One audience member commented, “this is awesome, I hope to see them perform live again soon!”

The Speakers feature Jordan Levy on drums, Geoff Coggeshall on guitar, saxophone and vocals, Sam Mason on keyboards, and Kerryn Prieto on guitar and vocals. Guest musicians for this concert included Charlie Lagond on saxophone, Paul Maddison (band leader) on keyboards, John Marc Degaard on bass, and Sam Glucksman on drums. Some of the original members of the band met as teenagers through the Lagond Music School. They reunited in 2019 and, with help from Lagond Music School’s Power through Performance Program and the Lasdon Foundation, began releasing original music and taking on gigs as THE SPEAKERS. Their name

Lagond Music’s Power through Performance program was created to assist musicians living with disabilities, who oftentimes get misinterpreted as having inabilities. The goal of PTP is to change that misperception. Power through Performance forms bands and mentors individuals of different levels and abilities to help them fulfill their dream. According to Roseanne Lana, “In 20 years of working with this community, we have found many individuals with tremendous talent and passion whose life-long dream is to make music and entertain. They are being marginalized, stereotyped as inferior musicians, and overlooked for musical opportunities.”

Now in its 74th year, Cerebral Palsy of Westchester’s mission is to advance the independence, productivity, and full citizenship of people living with all developmental disabilities including autism, neurological impairments, intellectual disabilities, epilepsy, and cerebral palsy. CPW’s main campus is located in Rye Brook, housing a special education school, an adult day habilitation program and recreation programs. CPW’s Adult Day Habilitation Program focuses on personal success, developing each individual’s interests and emphasizing community inclusion, designed to meet specific individual needs and interests with a person-centered approach. Through a comprehensive network of educational programs, day services, residential sites, therapeutic services, employment training, recreation programs and advocacy the agency helps thousands of children and adults in Westchester and Fairfield counties live more productive and satisfying lives.

Rye dominant in regional finals

Rye

Burnt Hills

Game Notes

• Andrew Keller had 3 goals

• 3 Rye players scored twice

• The Garnets will play Manhasset in the semis

It didn’t take long for Rye to assert its dominance in the Class C regional finals on Saturday as the Garnets put together an impressive showing against Section 9 Burnt Hills-Balston Lakes to punch their ticket to the New York State semifinal round. But with a tough matchup looming against Long Island power Manhasset, Rye knows it will need to be even sharper on Wednesday as the team continues in its quest for a state championship.

The Spartans proved no match for the young Garnets at Mahopac High School, with Rye taking control from the opening face-off and amassing an insurmountable 11-2 lead by midway through the second half. And although Burnt Hills may have added a few insignificant scores late in the game, Rye players felt pleased with a performance that helped

them come away with a 12-6 win.

““We went up by a couple goals, we felt confident and we just kept firing,” said eighth grader Garret Sullivan, who scored twice for Rye. “Now we need to focus on the little things and just get to work.”

Sullivan, Tyler McDermott and Tucker Hess—all underclassmen—each scored two

goals in the win, while senior Andrew Keller led with three. The balanced Garnet attack has been on display over the last few weeks as Rye has rolled through the rest of its Class C competition in the postseason. Their playoff showings have been shaped, in large part, by a regular season schedule that saw Rye take on tough teams from all over the tai-state

area.

“We had some tough losses early on, but that was probably the best thing for us,” said Sullivan. “I think they were kind of a wakeup call for us and showed us what we needed to improve on.”

With the win, Rye moves on to the Class C State Semifinals, where they will tangle with Manhasset on Wednesday, after press time,

in Albany. Manhasset (15-1) topped Shoreham-Wading River 11-6 for the Long Island championship on Saturday. Manhasset won the Class C state title last year and is currently ranked No. 10 in the country, but Garnet coach Steve Lennon said that his team won’t be cowed by the powerhouse’s press clippings.

“One thing we constantly

say, at practice and before games, is ‘Respect everybody, fear no one,’ and this team takes that to heart,” said Lennon. “I don’t think they fear anyone and we don’t look past any challenges either. It’s just about getting ready for our next game.”

One last chance

In just a few more days, it will all be over; kinda hard to think, huh?

This weekend the New York State Public High School Athletic Association (NYSPHSAA) will crown the last of its spring champions, officially bringing an end to the 2022-2023 athletic year. But while there are only a few days left in the sports schedule this year, there’s still an awful lot left to be decided.

There are a number of the Review teams still battling for a state title as of press time, and each of them has taken their own interesting path to get to where they are.

Our first of the semifinal squads took something of a circuitous route to get

where it was, as the Rye lacrosse team finds itself on the precipice of a state finals. Rye will take on Long Island power Manhasset for that finals berth, but in many ways, the Garnets have already exceeded expectations.

Rye is a young team whose inexperience was exacerbated by a mid-season injury to top-star Kian McCarthy and needed to find new ways in win in a stacked Class C landscape. They’ve had their scares—including an overtime win over Byram Hills in the first round of the sectional tournament— but seem to be playing their best lacrosse of the season as of late.

In the baseball world, Tuckahoe’s late-game heroics may be more recent, as the Tigers’ performance in the regional finals was the stuff of legends. Trailing 6-0 to Port Jefferson in the third inning, the Tigers clawed

their way back, eventually topping the Royals on a walkoff hit by Michael Annunziata in the bottom of the 7th inning. If Tuckahoe balls out this weekend, bringing home a state title? You can believe this will be a spring the town is talking about for a while.

Likewise, the Bronxville

girls lacrosse team seems to be peaking at the right time. One year removed from a state title, the Broncos—with a largely new cast of faces— are once again headed to SUNY Cortland, looking to make it two in a row. The Broncos’ tough regular season schedule may have meant that Bronxville doesn’t

boast the gaudiest record left in the state tournament, but their performance has been undeniable over the last few weeks as they’ve easily dispatched every opponent in the postseason.

So who knows what this week will bring? Heck, who knows if the air quality will even be good enough for

these games to be held?

One thing is for certain, though. With just a short time for these teams left to make their indelible mark in their school’s record books, they’ve all got a really solid chance to make history.
