TAX BREAKS OPPOSED

“W

e are actively seeking more investments in Westchester,” Joel Halpern, the fourth generation of Halperns involved in Westchester real estate, told the Business Journal during an interview at The Mason, an apartment and townhome development in Mamaroneck. “Port Chester is one of our highest-inter-

est markets. Port Chester has great coverage of opportunity zones,” he said.

Opportunity zones, designated by the federal government, are areas in need of economic development where investors and real estate developers can have their investments rewarded with special tax breaks.

The 27-year-old grew up in Harrison, graduated from George Washington University in 2014 and immediately got into the family’s real estate business. The

property for The Mason project was acquired in 2013 by Halpern Real Estate Ventures and Rosen Development Group for $3.5 million in a bankruptcy auction. The younger Halpern subsequently was charged with managing the project.

The 2.7-acre site is at 270 Waverly Ave. “We bought the site with approvals in place, but it took us a couple of years of predevelopment just managing some of the flooding issues with the Army Corps of Engineers, which we mitigated by raising the site about seven feet,” Halpern said. “We have 100 units in this complex, which is broken up among three main apartment buildings and a cluster of » HALPERN

Houlihan Lawrence’s report shows weaker luxury home sales SALT BLAMED FOR DECLINES IN WESTCHESTER, FAIRFIELD COUNTIES

BY PETER KATZ pkatz@westfairinc.com

L

uxury home sales in Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess counties, as well as key Fairfield County communities, continued to decline in the second quarter of 2019, according to a report from Houlihan Lawrence.

The report blames SALT, the loss of full deductibility for state and local taxes from federal income tax returns, along with softness in the New York City real estate market and changing buyer attitudes toward luxury properties for the declines.

For Westchester, the second quarter of 2019 was the third consecutive quarter that luxury home sales in the $2 million and higher category went down. In the quarter, 87 luxury homes were sold in Westchester, compared with 105 for the second quarter of 2018. The total dollar volume dropped from $311.1 million in the second quarter of 2018 to $245.8 million in the second quarter of 2019.

The softness extends to Connecticut, where Greenwich experienced 41 luxury homes in the $3 million and higher category sold during the second quarter

of 2019 compared with 53 in the same period last year. Dollar volume was down $50 million with sales of $201 million in 2019 compared with $251 million for the second quarter of 2018.

In Darien, 20 luxury homes in the $2 million and higher range sold in the second quarter of 2019 compared with 23 a year earlier.

Dollar volume was down to $58.1 million from $76 million in the

second quarter of 2018.

New Canaan saw a drop in $2 million or higher luxury homes sold in the second quarter of 2019 as compared with the same period for 2018. Eleven units sold in 2019 while 15 had sold in the second quarter last year. Dollar volume was down from $43.8 million in the second quarter of 2018 to $29.3 million in the same period this year.

In Putnam and Dutchess, nothing was sold in the $2 million and up category, while the second quarter of 2018 saw three homes sold in that price range. There were four homes sold that were worth between $1 million and $1,999,999, compared with 11 sold a year earlier.

Anthony Cutugno, senior vice president at Houlihan Lawrence, pointed out that market softness is not confined to this area.

“Luxury home sales have declined not only north of NYC, but in many luxury markets including NYC, the Hamptons and Miami,” he said. “Bigger is not always better and renovating or restoring a period home is the desire of a scant few. Their expectation about the future value of real estate influences the demand for luxury homes.

Though this shift is in its early stages, its impact is tangible.”

The most expensive home sale in Westchester reported by Houlihan Lawrence was in Bedford at $6.5 million. Next was Scarsdale with one at $5.9 million and Harrison at $5,685,400. In southern Fairfield County, Darien led the pack with a sale at $7.4 million followed by Westport with a home selling for $6.3 million.

T

he second quarter residential real estate report from the Hudson Gateway Association of Realtors showed a combination of weakness in some market segments and strength in others.

Toll Brothers buys rights to The Collection in White Plains

tions, and it must meet with the local Service Employees International Union to discuss post-construction jobs.

CBRE Group Inc. brokered the Toll Brothers deal for Saber, led by Jeffrey Dunne in the Stamford, Connecticut, office.

Toll Brothers is also building Edgeon-Hudson — condominiums, townhomes and apartments — in Sleepy Hollow, and the Carraway Luxury Apartments in Harrison.

Berger is working on a 127-apartment project just around the corner from The Collection site, at Hale and Maple avenues, and on Hudson Heritage, a retail, hotel, residential and arts and performance space in Poughkeepsie.

T

oll Brothers is expanding its presence in Westchester by acquiring The Collection, a proposed $136.2 million residential and retail development at the eastern gateway to downtown White Plains.

Saber Chauncey WP LLC has agreed to sell the project to Toll Brothers for about $32 million, according to Saber principal Martin Berger.

The deal was publicly revealed on July 11 when the Westchester County Industrial Development Agency consented to Saber assigning its rights and IDA tax benefits to TB White Plains Apartments LLC, a Toll Brothers subsidiary.

The decision to sell, Berger said, is “bittersweet any time you spend five years or more on a project.” But he said that as the concept shifted from largely retail to 95 percent residential, it made more sense for a homebuilder like Toll Brothers to take over.

The Collection will be built between Westchester and Frank lin avenues.

It will be across the street from The Westchester mall but in a blighted section of Westchester Avenue that attorney David S. Steinmetz said “needs reinvigorating.”

Plans call for two structures with 276 apartments, nearly 25,000 square feet of retail space and more than 700 parking spaces, on nearly three acres at 80-100 Westchester Ave. The IDA granted nearly $3.4 million in sales tax and mortgage recording tax exemptions in October and the city of White Plains has approved a property tax abatement.

Saber and Toll Brothers needed the agency’s consent to transfer project rights and obligations, because the IDA holds the leasehold title to the property and leases it back to Saber.

Steinmetz said the plans and economics — including the need for tax incentives — remain the same.

Toll Brothers and Saber officials met in February with Eddie Doyle, president of the Building and Construction Trades Council of Westchester and Putnam Counties, to discuss labor practices.

“Amicable construction labor policies and practices were agreed to,” John McCullough of Toll Brothers said in a letter to the IDA, “that would allow for harmonious construction activities to occur during the buildout of the project.”

The IDA put two conditions on the assignment of project rights. Toll Brothers must meet again with the construction and trades council, to confirm its inten-

Union laborers challenge county tax help for Hamilton Green project

BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

A

public hearing must be held before the Westchester County Industrial Development Agency determines whether or not to grant tax subsidies for proposed projects. But for years, hearing after hearing, project after project, no one showed up. Until July 8.

Fifteen union members filled a small conference room in the county office building and questioned the proposed $585.2 million Hamilton Green project in White Plains. Board member Richard McSpedon Jr. and staff secretary Chloe Zung were the only ones present for the IDA, which has seven members.

“We are here today in opposition to the developer being granted tax abatements and other public benefits,” said Lenore Friedlaender, assistant to the president of the local Service Employees International Union, “until serious concerns … are addressed in a responsible manner.”

The IDA had granted preliminary approval on June 13 for $17.5 million in sales tax and mortgage tax exemptions.

Hamilton Green is a project of StreetWorks Development of Port Chester. The plan is to replace the White Plains Mall on Hamilton Avenue with four structures with 860 rental apartments, retail space, offices, parking and a public plaza.

The developer estimates that the project would create 1,437 construction jobs and 500 permanent or part-time jobs.

Union members, however, questioned the developer’s commitment to well-paying jobs. They claimed that brownfield environ-

mental issues have not been addressed adequately, people behind the project have not been revealed and the project’s financial viability is questionable.

Kenneth D. Narva, managing partner of Street-Works, responded in an email message that most of the workers used to build Hamilton Green will be union labor. The environmental aspect is “proceeding productively” through the Brownfield Program’s “highly defined” process. And all of the equity in the project is in place and HG LLC, “an entity of experienced development and execution people” is the developer.

Economic issues were foremost among the statements made at the hearing.

Gabriela Silva told the story of working as a cleaner for 10 years at 1 Barker Ave. and 3 Barker Ave., near the White Plains Mall. As a union employee, she was paid $15.50 an hour

and benefits. Last year, she said, a new owner fired her and four other cleaners, replacing them with a cleaning company that paid $11 an hour and few benefits.

She identified the new owner as Juda Klein of Spring Valley, who also has an interest in the White Plains Mall.

She urged the IDA to reconsider the tax benefits until the developer can demonstrate a commitment to good jobs and Klein can “redress the wrongs we suffered at 1 and 3 Barker.”

“I hope you look into this company,” said Abel Rodriguez, superintendent of a Larchmont building, citing the firing of Silva.

The developer, he said, “hasn’t been straightforward in the past.”

“We all want to prosper in this county,” said Ernest Townsend, a union building porter whose $22 an hour and benefits enable him to

support a family. “Keeping people poor is not helping anybody.”

Tom DelGuidice, another building superintendent, said taxpayers don’t want developers to receive tax benefits if “they aren’t going to be good caretakers.”

“You have to do what you have to do to stimulate growth,” he said, “but it has to be responsible growth.”

Jonathan Jorge, a union electrician, said the IDA and the White Plains Common Council should fight more for small businesses, “family sustainable jobs,” affordable housing and funding for the public schools.

Friedlaender submitted documents that show that the state Department of Environmental Conservation has twice rejected plans to identify and clean up environmental hazards.

She said Street-Works had dropped out of a $1.6 billion development in Quincy, Massachusetts, “due to unforeseen construction costs,” and has been sued for allegedly failing to repay loans and debts. That track record, she said, calls into question the developer’s ability to get financing or to estimate, budget and manage a complex project.

Friedlaender also questioned who is behind the project. The limited liability company for the project had not been formed when the IDA application was submitted “and therefore not qualified to do business in New York state,” she said.

“Ultimately,” the IDA application states, “the applicant will be a joint venture between a combination of the current owners of the property as well as other prominent developers and/or investment management firms.”

CBRE report shows confidence in 2Q office market

R

eal estate services and investment organization CBRE says data in its report on Westchester County office activity for the second quarter of 2019 indicate there still is good news to be found within the market even though some numbers are down.

The report shows that leasing activity was comparatively light in the second quarter, down almost 8% year over year at 153,904 square feet, which was about 45% below the five-year average. However, when the second quarter is combined with the first quarter, the result is 405,000 square feet of leasing activity, up 9% over the same period in 2018.

Also, renewal activity was 34% above the five-year quarterly average and the highest quarterly number at 226,000 square feet since the third quarter of 2017.

The top four renewal deals for the second quarter involved: • Law firm Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher &

Flom LLP, which renewed 56,239 square feet at 360 Hamilton Ave. in White Plains.

• The New York State Department of Labor, which renewed 35,031 square feet at 120 Bloomingdale Road in White Plains.

• Regus, the world’s largest provider of flexible workspace solutions, which renewed 23,050 square feet at 50 Main St. in White Plains.

• Greywolf Capital Management, which renewed 18,531 square feet at 4 Manhattanville

Road in Purchase.

The space availability rate remained flat at 17.3% when compared with the second quarter of 2018.

CBRE cited Westchester County’s unemployment rate of 3.4%, which is below the New York state unemployment rate of 4% and the national rate of 3.6%. CBRE noted that jobs in businesses that are primary users of office space either stayed flat or increased and it

pointed to state Department of Labor data showing the financial activities sector gained 1,100 jobs from last year.

CBRE found that both the northern and western sections of the county had positive net absorption of space during the second quarter.

Availability in northern Westchester stood at 21.1% with 25,000 square feet of space being absorbed.

In western Westchester, net absorption for the second quarter was 37,000 square feet resulting in an availability figure of 23.8%.

CBRE said the largest block of space to become available for lease in the second quarter was about 25,000 square feet, and blocks of large space in the county remain limited with only six blocks of more than 100,000 square feet being available.

The highest asking rents averaging $34.28 per square foot were in the central business district submarket around White Plains. The east submarket came in at $27.80, the west at $26.12, the north at $26.64 and the asking rents in the south submarket of Westchester County averaged $26.99 per square foot.

Douglas Elliman residential report shows strength in regional sales In White Plains, the average price per square foot for residential properties was $424, compared with $313 for Westchester’s communities along the Hudson River and $297 in the Sound Shore area. The average sales price was $656,624 in Sound Shore communities, $749,392 in Rivertown communities and $1,360,565 in White Plains.

In Putnam, the average price per square foot was $189 and the average sales price was $382,180.

In Dutchess, residences averaged $154 per square foot with the average sales price at $310,108.

ouglas Elliman Real Estate has issued its second-quarter report on residential sales in New York City’s northern suburbs with an increase in Westchester County for the fourth consecutive quarter, strong results in Putnam County and some weakness in Dutchess County.

Scott Elwell, Douglas Elliman’s senior executive regional manager for Westchester and New England, said, “Our thinking is that the drop in mortgage rates has helped to stimulate activity.”

The report said the number of residential sales in Westchester rose 14.5% to 2,495 in the second quarter of 2019, the median sale price rose 1.5% to $533,000 and the average sales price declined 0.4% to $674,142.

Douglas Elliman said single-family sales in Westchester rose 14.3% to 1,508 with the median sale price in that category unchanged at $700,000. Condominium sales rose 16.1% to 346 units, with the median sale price in that segment up 5.9% to $400,000. There were 490 co-ops sold, an increase of 15.3% with the medi-

an sale price up 5.9% at $180,000. Sales of two- to four-family houses increased 10.2%, resulting in 151 units sold. The median sale price was $550,000, up 8.9%.

The report found softness in Westchester’s luxury market, which it defined as the upper 10% of all single-family sales. It said the median sales price fell 5.4% to $2,150,000 while the threshold for being classified as a luxury property dropped 5.6% to $1,600,000.

In Putnam, the number of sales went up 16.4% to 256 with a 6.2% rise in the median sale price to $359,000. The number of days a typical listing was on the market dropped 15.1% to 79 days while the listing inventory decreased 14.1% to 671 properties.

In Dutchess, the median sale price dropped 5.3% to $286,000 compared with the same period a year ago, while the number of sales jumped 39.9% to 368 units. The number of properties on the market increased to 807, up 18.3%, although the average time on the market decreased 7.9% to 82 days.

Westchester home sales rose for a fourth straight quarter.

Ground was broken on the $38 million project on June 16, 2017. “We’ll be fully completed this summer,” Halpern said. “The building is approximately 25% occupied now and we are about 70% leased. What we see in the Westchester market is that it’s usually a 30-day to 60-day turnaround time from a signed lease to the time of a move-in.”

Marketing Directors, Inc, a New York City-based firm, was brought in to handle the project’s marketing.

“We have a combination of digital marketing and print marketing, but I’d say our largest, our most powerful marketing source has been the building itself and our building sign, which is visible from the train station,” Halpern told the Business Journal. “We have absolutely positioned this property as a transit-oriented development. We are 1,000 feet from the Metro-North train station and you are 35 minutes to Grand Central.”

Kevin Welsh, executive managing director at NKF, described the property as “a unique multifunctional property that is well positioned to capture a broad base of tenant demand as they reposition or redevelop the asset.”

He also praised the location, saying, “Midland Avenue garnered substantial interest from investors, users and developers due to its unmatched transit-centric location and superior access to knowledge workers in one of Westchester’s most prestigious communities.”

Halpern said they’re marketing to a wide age range, from millennials to empty nesters. “Our favorite demographic that we find here is a married couple where one partner works in New York and one partner works in Stamford,” he said.

Halpern Real Estate Ventures was started in 2011. “We raised a sponsor capital fund there, which we now are coming to an end on,” Halpern said. “This project actually is one of our final investments in the first fund. We have now gone out and raised a second sponsor capital fund for opportunity zone investments. We’ve raised $30 million of our $50 million target and we are focusing on investments in the New York metro area, including Westchester, with particular interest in Philadelphia, Nashville and Denver as well, but we are looking at properties all over the country.”

Halpern believes they’ve hit upon the right combination of sleek building design and features to make The Mason successful. “We’ve put together an incredible amenity package here with a real focus on sustainability. We have what we call a

attractive opportunity to grow our Westchester holdings with a high-quality asset that benefits from a convenient location in one of our largest markets.”

Comfort has an office park at 1100 King St. in Rye Brook, formerly known as Royal Executive Office Park.

It’s a six-building Class A office park located directly off the Hutchinson River Parkway with 560,000 square feet of space on 45 acres. Another property is The Centre at Purchase, consisting of one 3-story and three 4-story office buildings on 43 acres with 676,490 square feet of space.

Joel’s great-grandfather Harry was a developer of apartments in Westchester and the Bronx in the 1950s and 1960s. Grandfather Joel Halpern became a major player in Westchester real estate with Halpern Enterprises and Halpern Building Corporation and is especially remembered for developing the Tarrytown Corporate Center and the Westchester Marriott in Tarrytown. He was killed in a powerboat racing accident in 1981. Jon Halpern, Joel’s father, assumed operation of the company. “I used to go to construction sites with my dad as a kid and overheard many, many phone calls as well,” the younger Halpern recalled. “The best advice I got was that in this job we’re firefighters. We’re putting out fires on a daily basis. Construction comes with issues, but it’s how you handle those issues and overcome them that makes you successful.”

At the time, the Business Journal reported that Avon had pledged to retain 668 jobs and spend $17.7 million on renovations if the Westchester County IDA granted tax abatements for 15 years. Benefits with a value of $4,906,974 were granted. In 2016, Avon asked the IDA for an amended agreement lowering the job-retention requirement to between 450 and 500 jobs. At that time, the company’s CFO told the IDA that Avon would be a “presence in Westchester for the foreseeable future,” which he defined as three to five years, according to what the Business Journal reported. Kevin Plunkett, who was IDA vice-chair at the time, was quoted as saying, “They’ve been good corporate citizens since 1956, so the options are clear to me.”

IN COURT Trustee claims operator of Yonkers school bus company diverted $24.2M

BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

A

U.S. trustee has sued the operator of Allways East Transportation Inc. claiming she diverted more than $24.2 million from the Yonkers school bus company, before and after she filed for bankruptcy protection.

Howard P. Magaliff accused Marlaina Koller of Yonkers of corporate waste and fraud in an adversarial action filed June 28 in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in White Plains.

Koller used Allways East Transportation “as her own personal pig�y bank,” the complaint states, “diverting millions of dollars from the (company’s) accounts for herself and other insiders.”

The complaint also states that the company’s books “were left in shambles,” requiring officials to sift through limited records to understand its finances.

They allegedly found evi-

dence of payments to casinos, a cemetery, family members and restaurants that appeared to have no connection to the business, as well as large cash withdrawals for which no documentation was found.

Allways East was founded in 1992 by Koller’s mother, Judith. In 2012, Marlaina, as vice president, assumed control.

She filed for Chapter 11 reorganization in 2016. By then, the company operated a fleet of 300 buses for transporting students from kindergarten through college, in Westchester and Dutchess counties. It specialized in busing special needs children and adults.

It employed 400 nonunion drivers, bus matrons, administrators and shop workers, and it leased two facilities in Yonkers and another in Fishkill.

The company had been profitable for more than 20 years, Marlaina said in a declaration filed in support of the

Chapter 11 petition, but it had begun to experience cash flow shortages.

She attributed the financial strain to increased insurance premiums, spending on the headquarters, greater monthly debt payments on new equipment leases, generous compensation for employees and a competitive market.

She also said she had put the business on “auto pilot” while dealing with medical issues, in the hands of a bookkeeper and lower-level administrators. During this period, she said, it became difficult to remain current on taxes, rent, insurance, leases and finance payments. Cost-cutting measures, such as layoffs and

shedding unprofitable contracts, “were not enough to turn the company around.”

In late 2017, Magaliff asked the court to convert the case to Chapter 7 liquidation, citing evidence of gross mismanagement, excessive cash withdrawals and suspicious payments.

The Chapter 11 petition had claimed $3.1 million in assets and nearly $9 million in liabilities. Yet, more than $24 million in claims were filed against the company.

“The debtor’s books and records grossly understated the true financial woes,” the trustee concluded.

Claims were filed by the Internal Revenue Service for nearly $5.3 million and the New York Department of Labor for $664,000.

From 2013 to 2016, Allways East cashed $18.2 million in checks through Wink Check Cashing Corp.

Some of the cash was used for payroll, the trustee states, but more than $10 million

was not accounted for.

Another $1.7 million was withdrawn from company bank accounts, without identifying the use. More than $98,000 was withdrawn on ATM cards used at casinos in Yonkers, Aruba and Atlantic City, New Jersey.

Marlaina allegedly used company credit cards for personal and family expenses at Victoria’s Secret, Sephora, airline flights and meals.

Company bank account transfers included $197,000 to Wells Fargo Home Mortgage, $22,000 to New York Life Insurance and $13,000 to Ferncliff Cemetery for a burial plot.

When the company was insolvent and not paying vendors and tax authorities, the trustee alleges, Marlaina paid excessive compensation to company insiders, including: $1.7 million to her mother, Judith, who owned the company but had “delegated all of her duties to Marlaina;” $410,700 to her-

self; and $300,000 to her brother, Edward.

More than $11.8 million in cash is not accounted for on the books and records.

In 2017, Marlaina incorporated Phoenix Transportation Services. Allways East sold contracts and vehicles, and transferred $74,000 “that were not (Allways East) obligations” to the new company.

The complaint charges breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, conversion of property, unjust enrichment and corporate waste.

“The trustee is entitled to recover from Marlaina, for the benefit of the debtor’s (Allways East) estate … not less than $24,234,194.”

The adversarial action is one of 38 that Magaliff has brought against insiders, casinos and other recipients of the company’s assets.

The complaint was filed

by Jeffrey Traurig of Archer & Greiner PC of Manhattan as special litigation counsel for Magaliff.

Investor claims $5.4M forgery in New Rochelle’s Millennia project

BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

A

n investor in a New Rochelle apartment building is claiming that documents were forged to get $5.4 million in advances on a construction loan.

Robert J. Leaf sued brothers Anthony and William Hammel and their Equity Land Developers LLC on July 9 in Westchester Supreme Court, to prevent the developers from destroying business records before he can file for arbitration.

Leaf lost the first round on July 10 when Justice Gerald E. Loehr denied a temporary restraining order.

Leaf’s claims are “patently meritless,” said the Hammels’

JULY 22, 2019

Manhattan attorney, Jay B. Solomon. “The judge found that he had not raised any issues that couldn’t be raised in arbitration.”

Anthony Hammel of White Plains and William Hammel of Stamford are creating a distinct downtown enclave in the Burling Triangle, between the New England Thruway (I-95) and Memorial Highway, near the New Rochelle train station.

They are replacing old houses with low-rise buildings that will eventually add more than 300 apartments to the neighborhood. Two structures have been built and they are working on three more.

Leaf, of Mamaroneck, is a retired dentist and a dental insurance consultant. He personally guaranteed a $27

WCBJ

million construction loan, according to his petition, has spent $18 million on the Millennia, the Hammels’ third building, in which he has an 84% interest.

Construction loans are typically funded piecemeal, as the general contractor certifies that work has actually been done and an architect certifies that the work was done properly.

Anthony Hammel submitted 10 certificates of payment from 2017 to 2018, totaling $5.4 million, according to the petition. They were signed by general contractor Michael Esteves, notarized by Bruce J. Moses and certified by architect Robert Silarski.

Leaf noticed that some of the signatures seemed

identical and all 10 documents were notarized on the same date. He hired Access Forensic Group to examine the papers.

Examiner Richard T. Picciochi reported on June 6 that the Moses and Silarski signatures appeared to have been duplicated.

Moses swore under oath that he did not notarize any of the certificates of payment and did not authorize anyone to use his signature or notary stamp.

Silarski swore that he had not signed the papers.

If the lender, Community Preservation Corp., knew about questionable certifications, the petition states, it would immediately call for a default on the construction loan, leaving Leaf liable for

the balance of the loan.

Leaf also accuses the Hammels of blocking his access to the Millennia construction site, denying access to the project books and threatening to shut down the project.

He claims that the Hammels demanded payments for construction costs, that he is willing to pay, but have refused to itemize the bills.

The Millennia was originally supposed to be done by last August, then by this past March, and now, according to Anthony Hammel, in three months.

Leaf claims that the developers caused “massive delays” by interfering with subcontractors, firing and failing to replace subcontrac-

tors, delaying deliveries to the site and by improper installation of a roof that caused significant leaks and damage.

“We claim the delay is the result of Bob being behind on his financial obligations,” Anthony Hammel said in an email, “and because of his continuous interference with nearly every trade (contractor).”

Leaf intends to compel an accounting of project funds, through arbitration, and accuses the developers of breach of fiduciary duty and beaches of contract.

Anthony Hammel depicted arbitration as a way to “mediate our differences like gentlemen.”

Leaf is represented by Manhattan attorneys Colin E. Kaufman and Israel A. Katz.

$70M loan for River Club property in Yonkers

Westchester to receive $15M more from feds for runway repaving at county airport

T The River Club at Hudson Park in Yonkers.

BY PETER KATZ pkatz@westfairinc.com

S

trategic Capital, the investment arm of builder China Construction America (CCA) based in Jersey City, New Jersey, has received a $70 million loan for financing of the River Club at Hudson Park in Yonkers, one of the buildings in its Hudson Park development.

Leasing of apartments in the building at 63 Wells Ave. on the Yonkers waterfront has been underway for several months and a formal ribbon-cutting ceremony to open the building was held on May 16.

The commercial real estate advisory firm Newmark Knight Frank (NKF) arranged the loan on behalf of Strategic Capital.

The loan was provided by the firm Guggenheim.

There are several divisions in the Guggenheim orga-

nization and one of them, Guggenheim Investments, reports having more than $209 billion in total assets.

The Guggenheim organization’s roots can be traced back to the 1800s.

In 1881, Meyer Guggenheim paid $5,000 for a one-third interest in two Colorado lead and silver mines. By the end of World War I the family had controlled more than 80% of the world’s supply of silver, lead and copper.

Strategic Capital’s Hudson Park development covers 16 acres of the Yonkers waterfront area.

At the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Ning Yuan, CCA’s chairman and president as well as Strategic Capital’s chairman and CEO, said, “River Club presented us with a unique opportunity — the city of Yonkers is in the midst of a massive transformation and the building’s waterfront location enabled us to ensure unprecedent-

ed views and a less-than30-minute commute to midtown Manhattan.”

There were five members of the NKF team that worked on arranging the loan. Jordan Roeschlaub, vice chairman and co-head of debt and structured finance, said, “The quality of location and strong leasing momentum allowed us to procure long-term, fixed-rate financing for the property prior to stabilization.” Stabilization is when a property becomes income producing after having achieved a certain level of completion, leaseup or net income.

The River Club building is 240 feet high and has 213 apartments. Pricing begins at $1,720 for studios, $2,190 for one-bedroom units and $2,870 for two bedrooms.

It has a garage for 206 vehicles, an indoor pool, fitness center, rooftop lounge and round-the-clock concierge services.

he U.S. Department of Transportation has awarded an additional $14,874,994 in federal funds to Westchester County for use in repaving the main runway at the Westchester County Airport.

U.S. Rep. Nita Lowey announced the funding and promised to use her position as chair of the House Appropriations Committee to continue “working to protect and improve critical transportation infrastructure across our country and in the Lower Hudson Valley to ensure safety and grow our economy.”

The funds are in addition to a $4 million award that was announced in May. When the Westchester County Board of Legislators voted at its March 11 meeting to issue $10 million in county bonds for the Runway 16/34 repaving project and making other improvements, the project’s cost was estimated at $21.7 million. At that time, the portion to be funded by the federal government was said to be $11.7 million.

A county spokesperson told the Business Journal that the additional federal funding means the por-

Westchester County Airport.

tion of the project’s cost that will have to be covered by the county will be reduced. He also noted that the cost of repayment of any bonds floated for the project would come from airport revenues, not from taxpayers.

In addition to repaving 4,857 feet of the 6,549foot by 150-foot runway, planned updates include the installation of replacement identifier lights, the reconstruction of the existing taxiway lighting system and the replacement of supplemental wind cones and precision approach path indicators that help pilots achieve the proper descent

angle when landing.

A schedule outlining the four phases of the project obtained by the Business Journal showed that the work will occur overnight from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., beginning Aug. 19. There is a voluntary curfew on flights into and out of the airport between midnight and 6:30 a.m., so the runway closing during the overnight hours is not anticipated to have extensive impacts on operations. The first phase is scheduled to end on Nov. 23, with additional phases taking place periodically thereafter. The entire job is expected to be completed by Oct. 10, 2020.

WalletHub says thumbs down on NY when starting a business

BY PETER KATZ pkatz@westfairinc.com

W

alletHub issued a report stating that New York state is the 9th worst state in which to start a business, ranked No. 42 out of 50.

At the bottom of the list was Rhode Island, while Texas stood at the top. New York was ranked

37th for “business environment,” sixth for “access to resources” and 49th when compared with the other states for “business costs.”

The study looked at what WalletHub said were 26 key indicators of startup success and then compared where each of the 50 states stood in comparison with the others. It gathered data from the U.S. Census Bureau, Bureau of Labor

Statistics, private foundations, financial businesses, pollsters, The New York Times and other entities.

The study found that New York ranked 15th when it came to average grow th in the number of small businesses and 47th in the affordability of office space. The state ranked 36th in labor costs compared to the other 49 states and

was 29th in the average number of hours worked during the course of a week. New York was 26th in the variety of industries found within its borders, and ranked last when it came to the cost of living, meaning it costs more to live in New York than in any other state.

In a related study, WalletHub compared what it said were 1,261 small-

sized cities to determine the best and worst small cities in which to start a business. The list included some Hudson Valley villages and towns as well as cities. It compared 18 key metrics ranging from the average growth in the number of small businesses to investor access and labor costs.

Some communities in the area came away with

WCBJ

respectable rankings.

Poughkeepsie ranked No. 134. White Plains came in at No. 387 while New Rochelle ranked 534th.

The village of Ossining showed up at No. 697 while the town of Harrison was No. 751. The best small city for starting a business, according to WalletHub, was Holland, Michigan, and the worst was Suisun City, California.

Unhappy campers challenge Rockland County’s measles-reporting rules

Hudson Valley localities receive state funds to combat zombie homes

BY PHIL HALL phall@westfairinc.com

ew York Attorney General Letitia James has announced the allocation of $9 million in grants through “Zombies 2.0,” a program to combat the proliferation of vacant or abandoned homes that are not main-

BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

T

he American Camping Association is trying to stop Rockland County from gathering medical information on summer campers and staff as part of emergency orders to combat measles.

The ACA’s New York chapter filed a lawsuit July 1 in federal court in White Plains against the health department, Commissioner of Health Patricia S. Ruppert and five members of the board of health, challenging the constitutionality of June 24 orders requiring camps to compile and submit extensive records every week.

The requirements, ACA Executive Director Susie Lupert states in a court pleading, “could be devastating to our members’ continued operations in this 2019 summer season and beyond.”

John G. Lyon, a spokesman for Rockland County, responded, “The county’s efforts to get the info it needs to protect the public is not an infringement of (their) rights. They are concerned about protecting their customer lists. It is the height of vanity to believe that the county has any interests whatsoever in their businesses.”

Measles is a highly contagious respiratory disease that can lead to serious complications, and even death. It can be prevented with vaccines.

As of July 8, there were 278 confirmed measles cases in Rockland.

The outbreak began in October and has been traced to seven unvaccinated travelers returning from Israel. The disease has been concentrated in Monsey and Spring Valley, where schools and day-care facilities had low vaccination rates.

County Executive Edwin J. Day declared a local state of emergency in March and has extended it four times.

The May 26 declaration states that 25 percent of the measles cases nationwide are in Rockland.

On June 4, the health department issued mandatory orders, requiring proof of vaccinations or immunity to measles, mumps and rubella for campers and staff. The orders were issued without legislation or input or discussion from the camps, three weeks before the camps opened.

The ACA represents 400 summer camps in the Northeast, including 17 in Rockland. Its members, according to the complaint, already comply with health and safety regulations and have passed inspections before opening. It claims there are only three active measles cases now and there have been no reports of infections or exposures among campers or staffs.

The state already requires camps to keep medical records on file, including immunizations, according to the complaint.

The county is demanding

records to be submitted weekly by unsecured facsimile transmissions, and the rules provide for no protections, the ACA claims, on the use or dissemination of confidential information.

A camp’s operating permit can be revoked and the camp can be fined up to $2,000 a day for failure to comply.

Lupert stated that the ACA supports proposed legislation that would require children to be fully immunized before attending summer camps.

But the requirement to submit confidential medical records to the county, the ACA claims, violates the U.S. Constitution’s Fourth Amendment right to be secure against unreasonable searches and seizures and the Fourteenth Amendment right to due process, as well as state constitutional rights.

The rules do not apply to single-use camps, such as sports camps, or to municipal playground programs.

Those programs compete with the ACA camps, according to the complaint.

Moreover, three health board members allegedly work for or represent summer camps or summer programs that are exempt from the orders.

The ACA wants the court to bar the county from enforcing the orders.

The association is represented by Donald J. Feerick Jr., Patrick A. Knowles and Mary E. Marzolla of Feerick Nugent MacCartney of South Nyack.

tained during a prolonged foreclosure proceeding, also known as zombie homes.

Selected localities will receive grants ranging between $50,000 and $500,000 based on the size of the community, the scale and severity of their zombie problems and their proposed use of such funds.

The new allocation continues the 2016 Zombie Remediation

and Prevention Initiative created by the Office of the New York Attorney General.

Eligible localities must have at least 5,000 residents and more than 100 vacant properties to participate in Zombies 2.0. The localities receiving state funds are Liberty, Monticello, Mount Vernon, Newburgh and Poughkeepsie.

ASK ANDI Getting the job done WE RECENTLY HAD ONE OF OUR MANAGERS OUT FOR TRAINING. WHEN HE WAS AWAY AND NO ONE WAS AROUND TO WATCH HOW THINGS WERE GOING, A COUPLE OF GUYS THOUGHT THEY COULD SLACK OFF. HOW DO WE GET FOLKS TO UNDERSTAND THAT IT’S ABOUT GETTING THE WORK DONE? THAT’S THEIR JOB. THOUGHTS OF THE DAY: Using time wisely is something that some people have learned how to do while others have not. Set goals to focus intention on the right objectives.

Speak honestly about what’s expected and whether those expectations are met or not.

Make sure the work has a purpose. Team up the less productive people with the most productive staff, so they can benchmark their performance and pace.

Talk about hours as something perishable. Once an hour has gone by there’s no getting it back. And the

work that could have been done, but didn’t get done, is still there to be dealt with.

Look at potential distractions and eliminate as many as possible from the work environment. Get people to set aside cell phones except on breaks. Box out a couple of time slots during the day to look at emails, and that’s it. If people walk through the work area and stop to talk, set up barriers to minimize the interruptions. If the work area is sloppy and time gets lost searching for equipment or supplies, take time out to

get everything organized.

Make sure that each day, each hour, is filled with purpose. Engage your people in goal setting in order to get their buy-in.

Set them on a mission to accomplish the workload in the time available.

Ask your people to figure out how they think they can best get through the tasks of the day or the week, rather than handing out miniscule assignments over which they have little or no control. Some shop managers act as overlords, in control of every decision and action, robbing the people who work under them of the need to think or act responsibly. Instead, engage people by giving them responsibility for what needs to get done and control over how they go about accomplishing it.

Make it clear what’s expected each day, each week. Circle back midway through and at the end to discuss how things are going. Ask people to propose suggestions for how to catch up if things get behind.

Identify team leaders who can hold group meetings to discuss work progress.

When the manager is off-site delegate authority to those team leaders to keep the work on track.

People look for meaning in what they do, and when they find it they tend to be much more engaged. Help people make the connection with the importance of what they are doing by talking about how other parts of the organization depend on this department doing its job well.

Taking pride in one’s

work is human nature. But some people have been badly trained to overlook that value. Or they just don’t connect the dots. Set goals for the department, track the department’s ability to perform and use charts to show how things are improving or falling off. Set up a competition with other departments for which one can have the best quality and be the fastest at completing work on hand.

Help people who are struggling to pick up the pace by having them work alongside more productive peers. Encourage people to tackle the hard work early to get it out of the way. Ask your most productive workers to be teachers who lead the department as everyone practices at building muscle

HOSPITALS RECEIVE ‘GOLD’ FOR TIMELY STROKE CARE To recognize hospitals for fast-acting care, the American Heart Association recently released its “Get with the Guidelines” awards.

Vassar Brothers Medical Center, Putnam Hospital Center and Northern Dutchess Hospital – all member hospitals of Health Quest – each earned “Gold Plus” for following up-to-date, evidence-based treatment guidelines.

The heart association’s evaluation is based on how well the hospitals provided brain scans, administered clot-busting drugs and prescribed preventive medications upon discharge, among other measures.

The type of award — gold, silver and bronze — relates to the length of time these practices were followed: two years for gold, a year for silver and 90 days for bronze.

Coleman School, rehabilitation center and foundation – all of which help medically complex children – announced a new brand adopting one logo for unity and one name for greater clarity – Elizabeth Seton Children’s.

Elizabeth Seton Children’s new logo, Betsy the caterpillar, unites the identities of the four organizations in a meaningful way.

Elizabeth Seton Children’s is raising funds to build the nation’s first home for medically complex young adults. The vision for the $45 million young adult program is to offer continuity to those who age out by locating it just next door to the center.

BLACK MOUNTAIN CAPITAL MOVES TO NEW ROCHELLE OFFICE

WIHD OPENS THERAPEUTIC GARDEN With the help of community partners and the initiative of one of its staff members, Westchester Institute for Human Development (WIHD) opened a new garden called “Adam’s Garden” on July 15 to provide therapeutic benefits to children and families and engage young adults with disabilities in community service. Filled with seasonal flowers and plantings, this landscaped area is a small, but impactful, community program at the WIHD site at 20 Hospital Oval in Valhalla. The garden is the brainchild of 24-year-old Brendan Klein who was hired with a grant from the Taft Foundation to expand community service opportunities for young adults with disabilities. Community partners Pleasantville Community Garden and St. John’s Episcopal Church helped restore the garden, which is named in memory of Adam Brickel, the son of WIHD Director of Community and Family Education Naomi Brickel, Klein’s supervisor.

Girls Inc. of Westchester County has appointed Katrine Beck to lead its board of directors.

Beck is the co-founder of Fullerton Beck LLP, a women-owned litigation firm that specializes in construction, general liability and insurance defense and risk management.

Girls Inc. of Westchester has been providing in-school and after-school programs in middle and high schools throughout Westchester since 2007. Serving girls ages 9 to 18, the organization’s trained professionals mentor participants and provide peer groups that help them feel supported, valued and confident.

Beck joined the Girls Inc. of Westchester’s Board of Directors in 2015 and has served on various committees, including a recent tenure as vice chair. She takes over leadership from Anitra Hadley, an experienced nonprofit executive who has served as the board’s chair since 2017.

I FEEL SO POWERLESS. WE HAVE TO WATCH HER EVERY MINUTE. FAMILY AND FRIENDS STOPPED COMING AROUND. HE KEEPS SAYING: “THERE’S NOTHING WRONG WITH ME.” IT’S DESTROYING OUR FAMILY. I FEEL SO GUILTY WE HAVE TO MOVE HER INTO A HOME. IT’S SO HARD TO CARE FOR SOMEONE WHO’S MEAN TO YOU. HE HIDES THINGS ALL THE TIME. I’M GRIEVING THE LOSS OF SOMEONE WHO’S STILL ALIVE. WE DON’T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO START.

LIVING WITH FTD IS HARD. LIVING WITHOUT HELP IS HARDER. THERE’S COMFORT IN FINDING OTHERS WHO UNDERSTAND. WE FINALLY FOUND A DOCTOR WHO GETS IT. I GOT SO MUCH ADVICE FROM OTHER CAREGIVERS. UNDERSTANDING MORE HELPS ME DEAL WITH HER SYMPTOMS. SEEING THAT OTHERS MADE IT THROUGH, I KNEW I COULD TOO. WE HONOR HIM BY ADVOCATING FOR A CURE. NOW I’M BETTER AT ASKING FOR HELP. NO MATTER HOW BAD IT GETS, WE KNOW WE’RE NOT ALONE. It can feel so isolating and confusing from the start: Just getting a diagnosis of FTD takes 3.6 years on average. But no family facing FTD should ever have to face it alone, and with your help, we’re working to make sure that no one does.

The Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration (AFTD) is dedicated to a world without FTD, and to providing help and support for those living with this disease today. Choose to bring hope to our families: www.theAFTD.org/learnmore
