State taking refund claims for MTA tax

S warehouse spectacle of costumed fashions, from vintage Julius Caesar to vintage Marie Antoinette to vintage Elvis Presley, the phone has been ringing off the hook as Halloween approaches. On a recent Monday, when Zweibon’s shop on a former factory floor of the Alexander Smith Carpet Mills at 530 Nepperhan Ave. usually is closed, 24 calls piled up on the answering machine as the owner, tailor’s tape measure draped around her neck, tended to a steady

tate officials ended a frustrating wait for business owners and tax consultants with a recent directive on protective claims for tax refunds that employers can file while a state appeals court weighs the legality of the 3-year-old Metropolitan Transportation Authority payroll tax. A state Supreme Court judge on Long Island in late August ruled the law creating the tax is unconstitutional. Justice R. Bruce Cozzens Jr. in his decision said the tax – 34 cents per $100 of payroll for employers in the MTA’s 12-county commuter transportation district – was created by a special law that affected some but not all counties in the state. It therefore required a home-rule message from affected local governments requesting the state Legislature to enact the tax law, Cozzens said. State officials have filed an appeal with the state’s highest court, the Court of Appeals. MTA officials called the Long Island judge’s ruling “erroneous” and said they expect it to be overturned, since four prior court challenges to the tax and its constitutionality were dismissed. The case has not yet been added to the Court of Appeals calendar. Michele Babcock, a partner at Jacobowitz and Gubits L.L.P., the Walden firm representing the Orange County Chamber of Commerce and three Hudson Valley municipalities in the lawsuit field two years ago in Nassau County, said the Court of Appeals must first decide whether it has authority to review the case on strictly constitutional ground. Plaintiffs in the original case, which include Westchester County, claim the highest court does not have jurisdiction, Babcock said. “It really comes down to whether it’s a constitutional issue,” she said.

ith the stroke of a pen, Rob Astorino took the first step toward transforming Playland into a profitable, year-round destination, but the county executive may have ignited yet another feud with Democrats on the Board of Legislators. Astorino announced Oct. 11 that Sustainable Playland Inc. (SPI), a nonprofit holding company based in Rye, would pilot the reinvention of the historic but downtrodden amusement park through a publicprivate partnership with the county – ending speculation over the park’s future following years of declining patronage and revenues. Speaking to a crowd at the Playland Ice Casino, Astorino said the county could no longer afford to maintain the amusement park on its own. “Playland is a government operation. That, in and of itself, is a problem,” he said. “There are many limitations to what we can do as a government entity … It’s hard to make a case, especially in this time, that an amusement park is an essential service.” Following the announcement, Astorino and SPI President Dhruv Narain signed a letter of intent to finalize an asset management agreement through which SPI would assume all responsibility for the park’s management for a period of 10 years, with the county retaining ownership of the 100-acre park that hugs the Long Island Sound. As part of the proposed agreement, SPI would make an upfront payment of $4 million and minimum annual payments of $1.2 million to the county. Astorino and Narain said the two sides hope to have a contract finalized in the next 60 to 90 days, with construction then commencing on portions of the park. SPI and its partners have also pledged to invest more than $34 million in private capital to enhance the park’s historic rides,

create a great lawn overlooking the Long Island Sound, build indoor and outdoor athletic facilities over a portion of the current parking area, renovate the Ice Casino to incorporate event and catering spaces while maintaining the largest of the building’s skating rinks, transform the swimming pool into an aqua park for children and improve the beach and shoreline areas. Narain estimated the proposed changes would result in the creation of hundreds of permanent jobs at the park itself, hundreds of construction jobs and many other indirect jobs as a result of the park being a yearround attraction. “We plan to return Playland to its original vision of a park with amusements but a lot more, so that it can once again be a destination for all Westchester families,” said Narain, a Rye resident and former managing director of Goldman Sachs.

‘Community-based solution’ Sustainable Playland, which began as a grassroots coalition comprising Westchester residents and business leaders, has evolved into a coordinated effort involving planning consultants, developers, park operators, restaurateurs, sporting entities and entertainment providers from around the region. SPI’s operating structure resembles that of a holding company, with the group proposing to contract the management of the park and its components to Biederman Redevelopment Ventures (BRV) L.L.C., an internationally renowned management and design firm perhaps best known for transforming Bryant Park into one of New York City’s most popular destinations. Each individual component of Playland – including the Ice Casino, the amusement park and proposed restaurant and events spaces, sports facilities and an aqua park – would then be sub-contracted to companies that specialize in the development and operation of each venue. “They had a vision and that was very

important. It’s a community-based solution; it had broad appeal,” Astorino said. “We were extraordinarily impressed with the management team and the operators that they were bringing in to work with them and reinvent Playland. That sort of put it over the top for us.” Companies that have already committed to partnering with SPI include Mega Funworks Inc., based in Highland, N.Y., which owns and operates SplashDown Beach water park in Fishkill; DreamPark International L.L.C., based in Sugar Hill, Ga., which has participated in the design and construction of dozens of theme parks; American Skating Entertainment Centers L.L.C., based in Elmsford and Phoenix, Ariz., which operates 14 ice rink facilities across the country, including the Westchester Skating Academy in Elmsford; and Pinnacle Indoor Sports L.L.C., based in Prescott, Ariz., which has developed indoor and outdoor athletic facilities around the country, including the recently opened House of Sports in Ardsley. Other area companies that have expressed an interest in partnering with SPI include the Pearl Restaurant Group, which operates seven restaurants in Westchester and Fairfield County, Conn., including three in Rye; and Restaurant Associates, a subsidiary of Compass Group North America, which operates catering services at more than 100 upscale locations across the East Coast. Of the approximately $34 million in capital improvements projected by SPI, individual operators would implement roughly $25 million of the upgrades, with SPI responsible for the remainder. The county and the individual vendors would then share in the profits, with Astorino saying SPI’s $1.2 million annual payment to the county would be eligible to increase over the lifetime of the proposed contract as park revenues increase. “This is a very rich deal for the county … I think he’s (Astorino) done a very good job for Continued on next page

the taxpayers,” BRV Principal Dan Biederman said, citing examples such as the redevelopment of Bryant Park, where the developer has retained all of the park’s profits. “I think the county struck a good deal for itself.”

Astorino, board Democrats divided The decision in favor of the SPI proposal marks the culmination of a years-long process that began in earnest in 2010, when the Astorino administration issued a request for proposals (RFP) seeking plans that would transform the Rye park into a profitable enterprise. The county will lose more than $3.4 million on Playland in 2012, with revenues projected to be $12.4 million and expenses projected at $15.9 million – including $3.9 million that will go toward paying off principal and interest on the county’s existing $32 million in debt on the park. Since 2010, revenues have fallen 4.6 percent and expenditures have fallen 4 percent as a drop-off in attendance hampered the county’s ability to upgrade the park’s current attractions and infrastructure. For the 2012 season, attendance was 433,000, down more than half compared to attendance of 1 million in 2005, Astorino said. Under the proposed agreement with SPI,

the county would save $18 million in interest and principal payments over the remaining 12-year life of the bonds, he said. While Astorino touted the partnership between the county and SPI as one that promises financial relief to county taxpayers, the Democratic majority of the county Board of Legislators questioned the math and criticized what they described as a lack of transparency on the part of the Astorino administration. With annual debt service payments in excess of $3.8 million, Democrats on the board expressed their concern that county taxpayers could still be responsible for approximately $2.5 million annually after accounting for SPI’s $1.2 million annual payment to the county. “The details of this proposed agreement with Sustainable Playland to re-design and manage the park need to be in front of the Board of Legislators as soon as possible for the plan to move forward,” said Bill Ryan, a White Plains board member, in a joint statement released by the board’s Democrats. “To fast-track this arrangement without board oversight and public comment would be the wrong way to go.” Astorino said that because the proposed contract with SPI would be an asset manage-

ment agreement and not a lease, the Board of Legislators’ approval would not be required for the county and SPI to move forward. Instead, he argued the only necessary approval in order for the contract to become legally binding would be from the county Board of Acquisition and Contract, a three-member board comprising Board of Legislators Chairman Ken Jenkins, county

Public Works Commissioner Jay Pisco and Astorino himself. “We want the Board (of Legislators) to be part of the process,” Astorino told the Business Journal. “What we won’t allow to happen is for this to be bogged down in politics, bureaucracy and red tape for a long period of time, which would stall the project. People need to get back to work.”

Experts say China eager for U.S. exports BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

hina’s transition to a consumer economy and its aim to sustain itself as a major global trading power offers a wealth of opportunities for U.S. businesses willing to risk lax enforcement of intellectual property laws and navigate local regulatory and cultural channels to sell their products and services there. So a panel of China trade and banking experts told a business audience from Westchester and Fairfield counties at a recent discussion on selling into the China market. The breakfast event was hosted by HSBC and the Westchester County Business Journal at the Hilton Westchester in Rye Brook. Exports from the U.S. to China grew 542 percent from 2000 to 2011, according to HSBC officials. As of July, U.S. exports to China this year totaled $61 billion, well ahead of the pace of trade in 2011, when the U.S. shipped $103 billion of exports to China. More than 90 percent of the world’s top 500 companies do business in China, according to HSBC. “It’s a real boom period,” though Chinese government and business officials recognize that the current rate of economic growth is not sustainable, said attorney Paul B. Edelberg,

partner at Fox Rothschild L.L.P. in Stamford. “They work hard over there and they want to do business. They love to do business with Americans. It’s a great opportunity.” “You want to deal with them because it is a Type A country just like us,” said Robbin Price, senior vice president in HSBC’s foreign exchange division. She said she has been impressed by the “very practical” approach of Chinese government officials. “China is removing a lot of the obstacles to doing business and doing transactions” in Chinese currency. Price advised U.S. companies doing business in mainland China to open bank accounts in Hong Kong for transactions in renminbis, or RMBs, China’s official currency that was opened to limited trading in

the international exchange market in 2010. Designating a Hong Kong bank “makes a huge difference” in a country where the third-party payer in an RMB transaction, the bank, “is highly scrutinized,” she said. “It’s fully tradable now,” Price said of the RMB. “The next step is to start thinking about how to protect yourself from fluctuations in the market.” Steven L. Henning, partner at Marks Paneth and Shron L.L.P. in Manhattan, said China is making a “slow transition” from a producer to a consumer economy. “As a result, there’s an enormous demand for western products, for luxury products,” he said. A population migration from rural areas to cities has left Chinese citizens with “a lot more money to spend that is creating that

consumer demand,” Henning said. Henning said Chinese government and business officials show “an enormous desire for a greater understanding of western business practices to facilitate the enormous explosion of growth that they’ve had.” Technical and scientific knowledge also is much in demand with luxury products, he said. Both Henning and Edelberg advised U.S. owners to seek partners in China for business contracts and local regulatory contacts. “If you go in by yourself, it’s very difficult. It’s very intimidating,” said Henning. Edelberg said protecting intellectual property will continue to be a problem for U.S. companies in China. “If you can’t deal with it, maybe you shouldn’t be trading in China,” he said.

stream of retail customers putting together their Halloween outfits. “Right now, there’s lot of high-end activity from New York City,” said Zweibon, who has supplied costumes to ABC shows and props for the network’s new series, “666 Park Avenue.” New York City’s show producers and celebrities increasingly travel to Yonkers, or dispatch couriers, to rent from the slight-framed costumer since her purchase last summer of the Broadwayquality inventory of Creative Costume Co. in Manhattan.

With the sale of Creative Costume’s stock, “There are no more professional New York City rental shops – none,” said Zweibon, who over 12 years has built an inventory of 20,000 costumes. The Creative Costume acquisition added about 2,500 high-end pieces to her collection, she said. “Ten trucks started coming in on Aug. 2” with the theatrical haul from Manhattan, Zweibon said. She has hired one full-time and one part-time employee from Creative Costume “because they know the stock.” “We just sent something down to Ivanka Trump’s husband,” said the native of South Korea and longtime Ardsley resident. “They’re having a cape party. He’s going to be Batman.”

STATE TAKING —

advised employers to continue paying payroll taxes and filing returns.

ARTFUL — From page 1

From page 1

The court has been silent on the issue of refunds for payroll taxpayers if the law is declared unconstitutional and thrown out. Business owners and accountants waited several weeks for the state Department of Taxation and Finance to issue guidelines for employers in the MTA district who could be eligible for refunds on taxes paid in 2009. Those employers have a Nov. 2 deadline to claim refund for taxes paid before Nov. 2, 2009. State tax officials had said the department would publish protective claim forms and guidance for employers by the first week of October. In the meantime, they

The department’s awaited guidelines were not released until Oct. 17. Though

“We’re taking pictures and sending things to Rachel Ray too” as Halloween costume ideas for the cooking personality’s television show. Then there was the long, exasperating call from production staff for a late-night network talk show whose host resides in Westchester County. “We found Mrs. Lincoln for a big guy” – a Mrs. Lincoln costume, no small achievement, Zweibon said – but the talk-show rep was not trusting the costumer’s measuring skills. Over the phone she instructed Zweibon to lay a tape measure beside the costume and photograph it. The harried owner of Beyond Costumes abruptly ended the call. “They’ll call back today,” said the president of the largest privately owned costume shop in metropolitan New York. “The higher end it goes, it’s definitely more demanding.” Zweibon finds running a small “art business” more demanding than the business of real estate financing and accounting in which she formerly worked. A certified public accountant, she has a master’s degree in finance from the University of Pennsylvania Wharton School. For several years she structured real estate deals for a developer of rehabilitated properties. “This is almost more challenging than structuring $20 million deals,” said Zweibon, who was in the process of a divorce when she bought Westchester Costume rentals and left a job in residential real estate in 2002. She moved the business from its Yoho lofts space at 540 Nepperhan Ave. to its current location eight years ago. “It just kind of started growing,” she said. “I really didn’t know the retail business or the costuming business. It was a

really hard financial struggle, but I made it.” Zweibon said her company has picked up most Westchester schools as customers with large costuming needs for their musical theater productions. The busy show season usually runs from February through May, though Zweibon and her four employees this month are juggling Halloween retail business with a looming Nov. 2 deadline to deliver some 60 costumes for a “Guys and Dolls” production at Rye Middle School. “We could have 100 costumes for one show,”’ Zweibon said. “Over a 10-year period, we’ve gotten pretty strong at putting something like that together.” Zweibon is directly engaged in all aspects of the business, from costume design to the more onerous bookkeeping. Recently she was awake at 3 a.m. completing a business tax return to meet an Oct. 15 deadline. “I try not to advertise because it costs so much money,” she said. “It’s an art business but I can make this thing grow because of all the things I do.” With a collection that combines her recent acquisition with an already large costume inventory, Beyond Costumes has become “the shop” for independent filmmakers and show producers in Brooklyn and Manhattan, she said. Zweibon sees her small business as part of a “movement to get art businesses coming up” to open in Yonkers. Altman Lighting, Sound Associates and Hudson Scenic Studio already are established in Yonkers. “We’re not the boroughs, but I think there is a way to make us the next stop” for artists and arts entrepreneurs, she said.

private accountants and state tax officials advised against it, business owners had begun filing amended tax returns so as not to lose out on any future refunds before the state issued more easily processed claim forms. “It has been an extremely frustrating experience,” said accountant Barry Weisman, a tax partner at Anchin Block & Anchin L.L.P. in Manhattan. The long delay in Albany “has really eroded practitioners’ confidence in the state.” Sandy Weinberg, tax principal at O’Connor Davies L.L.P. in Stamford, Conn., said Paychex and other payroll services have been offering to file protective refund claims on behalf of their clients. The state taxation department “has been slow in offering something similar to taxpayers doing it themselves.”

“While we’re confident that the (MTA payroll tax) is constitutional and the decision will be overturned, you have the right to file a protective claim,” state officials said in their Oct. 17 directive. Refund claims based on the unconstitutionality of the tax will be processed when the appeals process is completed, they said. Self-employed individuals have until April 30, 2013 to file a refund claim before the three-year statute of limitations expires. Partnerships may file one claim on behalf of all qualified partners included in the partnership’s previous group payroll tax returns. Once filed, a protective claim applies to all prior filing periods within the statute of limitations when the claim is filed and any future filing periods.

Developer near financing deal in Ossining BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

eveloper Martin Ginsburg told Ossining village officials he has a tentative agreement with a new financial partner that could allow construction to resume by spring 2013 on the 188-unit Harbor Square apartment development. A joint venture of Ginsburg Development Cos. and Cappelli Enterprises Inc., the mixed-use project came to a halt in the recession and credit crisis in 2008 after Martin Ginsburg foundation work had begun on what was to be a luxury condominium development with retail and restaurant space. Ginsburg, whose Valhalla company joined Cappelli’s in the Ossining venture in 2005, revived the project early this year with plans to build rental units and a 10,000-square-foot restaurant and retail center. Ginsburg told village trustees this month that he has a term sheet with Prudential to join the Harbor Square venture as “co-developer, our financial partner.” The Prudential pension fund financing the project does not invest in restaurants, said Ginsburg, who will seek independent financing for that part of the Hudson River development. “That’s no small accomplishment in today’s world,” the developer said of his pending deal with Prudential. “These are very heavyweight people.” Ginsburg said he is speaking with a restaurateur as a potential operator at the Harbor Square location, but welcomed suggestions from village officials for a res-

taurant suited for the location that would attract both local residents and diners from New York City. Ginsburg said he has retained John Sullivan and Sullivan Architecture P.C. in White Plains to complete the project design and working drawings. Ossining Mayor William Hanauer thanked Ginsburg for reviving the Harbor

Square development “and getting this thing moving again, because it was painfully slow for a long time.” The redesigned apartment building “looks much better,” he said. “I’m very receptive to comments as long as the intent is not to kill this project but to help it,” Ginsburg said. While he has tried to incorporate suggested design changes into the project and aims to build “a landmark

building,” some changes will be expensive. “We do have to meet economic targets or we don’t get it built,” he said. The developer said March 2013 is “a reasonable target” for the start of construction. His company wants to be “well under construction” when the village begins its bicentennial celebration next spring, he said.

Thoughts of the day: Entrepreneurs are optimistic, that’s what helps them get the business off the ground. Long-term good business owners learn to play defense as well as offense. Put all of your desires into a plan where you can see the demands and manage the workload. Learn about balance. Entrepreneurs live in the land of hope. Even when they say they know things could go wrong, they tend, in their planning process, to act as if things will go right. However, as the business grows, it becomes as important to be able to keep the company safe as it is to risk everything on a good play. Changing from offense to defense is truly challenging for entrepreneurs who see upside opportunities as so attractive they forget the risks. They bull on through to the other side of a bad situation, believing all things will work out. That’s true, until it’s not; until one thing too many goes wrong. We’ve heard it all. The business gets overextended and the bank calls its loans at the wrong time. The owner gets sick. A key player leaves. A big client cancels its orders. A competitor buys up companies and builds a noose. Supplies aren’t available when a big order comes in. The IT system crashes. There’s a reason why three out of four businesses fail in every 10-year cycle. No matter how many 10-year cycles the business has been through, the chance of failure is much greater than the chance of success. Longevity doesn’t equal durability when it comes to building a business. As the business grows, no longer does the owner win by taking the biggest risks. The scope of challenges grows. The volatility of the business increases. The business

is at greater risk of failure every year. Once the business is off the ground, with enough size to be stable, the owner has to shift away from an all-offense approach and learn to play a good game of defense, too. What is defense? It’s thinking through what could go wrong and preparing to handle those challenges. It’s slowing down the pace of growth to allow all parts of the business to catch up. It’s having a plan of attack that allows owner, managers and employees to be on the same page. Start by building a realistic plan of where to take the business. Map out growth and profitability goals. Clearly define the resources that will be needed. Set up KPIs, or key performance indicators. Assess vendors, clients and employees for current ability and growth potential. Map out the organization at twice the size and define what has to get built, by when, so you don’t blow things up as you grow. Make yourself accountable to someone. Learn to stick to the plan. When things go right, keep going. Don’t accelerate. Instead, make time to enjoy the ride. When things go wrong, assess the quality of the plan. Make changes as needed. Slow down until things are back on track. As a entrepreneur, recognize you’re an adrenaline junkie. You get juiced up by having to jump in, solve problems and make things happen. You need to be needed. The transition to business owner of a long-haul business is as much about getting off the adrenaline rush as it is anything else. Find a hobby to distract you. No more hero moves. No more pushing things so hard that you have to jump in and do a rescue operation. It’s about smooth sailing, following a plan and rewarding people for doing their jobs.

Lawsuit looks to pop Greenburgh bubble By SAM BARRON sbarron@westfairinc.com

group looking to stop the town of Greenburgh from leasing the former Frank’s Nursery site on Dobbs Ferry Road to Game On 365 has taken its grievances to court. Elm Street Sports Group L.L.C. filed a lawsuit in Westchester County Court Oct. 1 seeking to block the project, claiming that it violates county law. County law states that a town must sell any property acquired via tax lien. Supervisor Paul Feiner has said that state law, which allows the town to lease the property, supersedes county law. The town took over the site after Frank’s Nursery was foreclosed. Over the summer, the Town Board approved the 15-year lease contingent on a referendum being approved by Greenburgh residents Nov. 6. Town officials say that leasing to Game On 365 L.L.C., which would build The Westchester Field House, complete with a dome bubble, would create revenue, help lower taxes and allow for much needed field space. Opponents have questioned the speed in which the town is entering the deal

10 October 22, 2012 • WCBJ

and how much traffic would be created. Elm Street Sports Group, which runs the newly opened House of Sports in Ardsley, would see a direct competitor come into town. Elm Street Sports Group had also been accused of funding the Help Burst the Bubble campaign, which runs a website and

“I feel that a sports facility should be encouraging competition, not discouraging competition.” – Greenburgh Supervisor Paul Feiner

has sent numerous mailings. Elm Street Sports Group denies any involvement or funding of the Help Burst the Bubble campaign. Donald Scherer, the CEO of Elm Street Sports Group, said it is unfair that after all the hoops he went

through to get his project approved, Game On 365 is getting a lease. “We had to follow the law and we worked very hard,” Scherer said. “It took us six months and a difficult review process. The laws are there to be followed; it gives them a huge competitive advantage. Should I not pay taxes because I don’t have to follow the law?” The lawsuit becomes moot if the referendum is defeated, though Scherer said he did not want to wait for the results, calling it a sham. “If they vote yes, it doesn’t change the county tax law,” Scherer said. “You cannot overrule laws because of a referendum. It means nothing, the referendum has no impact.” Martin Hewitt, Game On 365’s project manager, said his company expected the lawsuit, though he expects it to fail. “We will continue to encourage the residents of Greenburgh to vote on November 6 in favor of the Game On 365 proposal to build The Westchester Field House, which will generate over $5 million in revenue for the town 15 years, relieving the heavy tax burden on residents,” Hewitt said in a press release.

Feiner said he is not surprised by the lawsuit and that House of Sports is doing whatever they can to stop the competition. “I feel that a sports facility should be encouraging competition, not discouraging competition,” Feiner said. “Sportsmanship is competition. I am disappointed. I think we’re on solid legal ground, though you never know how a judge is going to rule.” Feiner said that House of Sports has deep pockets and is trying to slow down Game On. Feiner compared what the town is doing with what the county is doing with Playland. “I don’t see the big deal,” Feiner said. “This is what (County Executive Rob) Astorino wants to do with Playland. It’s the same thing; we’re using a public-private partnership to have recreation. This is a very good thing for the town and will be an asset to the community.” Playland is not a foreclosed property. Feiner said that the referendum is just the first hurdle, Game On 365 must still be approved by the Greenburgh Planning Board and undergo the SEQRA (State Environmental Quality Review Assessment) process.

Concerns grow as candidates dodge ‘cliff’

Neil Cavuto, managing editor of business news and senior vice president of Fox News Channel.

BY PATRICK GALLAGHER pgallagher@westfairinc.com

s voters and the media attempt to decipher every speech, debate and poll leading up to Nov. 6, TV anchor and commentator Neil Cavuto says business leaders are focused on the one issue neither candidate has broached: the fiscal cliff. Through the second debate between President Obama and Republican nominee Mitt Romney, the two campaigns have sparred over how best to spur job creation and boost the middle class, where the future lies for the Affordable Care Act and Dodd-Frank, and

whether the Obama administration’s foreign policy has been tentative or prudent. What has been conspicuously absent is any discussion over the ramifications of what could amount to a “financial Armageddon,” said Cavuto, managing editor of business news and senior vice president of Fox News Channel. “It’s just around the holidays that we could be facing holy hell and nobody’s talking about it,” said Cavuto, who grew up in Danbury, Conn., and anchors three programs on Fox’s family of networks in addition to overseeing all of the network’s business coverage. Cavuto thwarted the notion that business owners and top executives lean to the right, contending instead that they will favor whichever candidate’s policy proposals would be most beneficial to their respective company. The problem, he said, is that to date, neither Obama nor Romney have provided a specific framework for how they would address the fiscal cliff represented by the expiration of roughly 40 tax measures and

by the sequestration cuts that will affect billions of dollars in defense and discretionary spending. “In the business world, these guys aren’t red or blue: they’re green. It’s about ‘How can I make money?’” Cavuto said. “What concerns them the most is the inability of Washington to get their act together. It’s this fear of the unknown – what regulations are coming, whether taxes are going up.” Despite recent polls and surveys that suggest an increase in optimism among consumers, behind the scenes and off camera, business leaders are scared, Cavuto said. “I would worry if my boss isn’t feeling that great and I think people should as well, because what they seem to be signaling is when they’re anxious, they’re not going to expand, they’re not going to hire more workers,” he said. “So in that environment, I would be very, very worried. I wouldn’t get more optimistic until these guys are.” While Romney experienced a significant bump up in national and swing-state polls

Propel moves to Ossining, plans to add to staff By SAM BARRON sbarron@westfairinc.com

An innovative orthodontist company has moved from Tarrytown to Ossining. Propel Orthodontics L.L.C. recently completed a move to 233 S. Highland Ave. in Ossining. The company plans to add 25 jobs within the next year. Propel designs products that speed up orthodontic procedures, making it easier for orthodontists and decreasing the time people would have to wear braces from two years to one year. The technique was developed at New York University’s College of Dentistry and licensed by Dr. Richard Johnson, who founded the company in 2010 and serves as its chairman. The technique, called Alveocentesis, stimulates the alveolar bone where orthodontic force is applied to the teeth. The bone is mod-

eled more efficiently, helping to treat the teeth a lot faster. Michael Burrows, the director of marketing, said the company simply outgrew its Tarrytown office. “We’ve had very good results so far,” Burrows said. “Sales are great.” Burrows said the company hopes to double revenue while in Ossining and become a greater presence in the metro area. Being in Ossining provides a better proximity to vendors and other businesses, Burrows said. Ossining Town Councilman Peter Tripodi was instrumental in getting Propel to move, saying that Ossining lacks these types of businesses. “We need businesses that are professional, non-manual labor,” Tripodi said. “These businesses provide jobs for lower-level skilled people, but also highly skilled young professionals. This is a company that employs younger people like me.”

Greene sites lawsuit for resignation By SAM BARRON sbarron@westfairinc.com

Robert Greene, who resigned from the North Castle Planning Board two weeks ago, said that he resigned because of fear of a lawsuit over the Brynwood project. The Brynwood project, which involves building a residential country club community at the Brynwood Golf and Country Club has been highly controversial in the town. Greene lives at nearby Windmill Farms, where residents oppose the plan for 88 luxury condominiums. He said that Brynwood threatened to sue the town of North Castle if Greene didn’t recuse himself. “I didn’t want to be involved in a lawsuit nor have the taxpayers of North Castle exposed to the risk of lawsuit, so I resigned,” Greene said. “I was told that they claimed I

following the first debate, Cavuto downplayed the outcome, saying that debates initially favor the challenger and that the electoral climate can change rapidly in the final weeks prior to an election. “History itself is decided by events that no one saw coming,” he said. “I don’t think anyone could have predicted (before the first debate) that Mitt Romney would come out firing on all cylinders.” However, “It’s always the challenger who benefits in these things unless he totally screws up, because so much is expected of the incumbent.” In the end, he said the onus falls on the candidates to convert both undecided voters and supposedly decided voters whose minds can still be changed. “This argument that there are very few minds that can be made up because there are so few voters who are undecided ... I think there are many more than you would expect, on both sides,” Cavuto said. “What I’m saying is that whatever the consensus is for the moment, A, it’s for the moment, and B, it’s probably wrong.”

was biased against their application.” Mark Weingarten, the attorney representing Brynwood denied Greene’s allegations about a potential lawsuit or that they forced him to resign. Greene, who was only nine months into a four-year term, said that he didn’t want to resign. Greene said he plans to be involved in the Brynwood application as a private citizen. “I will be sure that their application is fair to North Castle taxpayers,” he said. Supervisor Howard Arden said that Greene’s resignation is a big loss for the town and said he was upset about the town’s 3-2 vote to begin the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA) process at a Sept. 27 town board meeting. Arthur Adelman, the current vice chairman, will replace Greene as chairman of the board.

in brief Madison Approach acquires Hire Choice

MTA announces fare increases

White Plains-based Reinhard-Madison Approach Staffing Inc. acquired Hire Choice Staffing Inc. in June, merging the two companies. “It seemed like a good fusion,” Madison Approach owner Allison Madison said. “We had a lot of similar backgrounds. Both of us have been in business for a long time and we had similar principles. It was a good opportunity for Madison Approach to expand our client base and provide more services to our clients.” Madison Approach does full-service staffing from clerical on up, including direct and temporary hire. Most of its clients are in Westchester and range from small to midsize businesses, many of which don’t have a dedicated human resources department. Madison said that the company has been expanding the past few years and that acquiring Hire Choice is another piece of the puzzle. No employees have been laid off and Madison said she doubts clients are even aware that a merger occurred.

The Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) unveiled a series of fare and toll increases it says will provide much needed revenue. The increases will go into effect March 1, 2013. A monthly pass from White Plains to Grand Central Station would increase about $20 a month to $249, while a weekly pass would increase $6.50. “Costs that the MTA does not exercise control over, namely those for debt service, pensions, energy, paratransit, and employee and retiree health care, continue to increase beyond the rate of inflation,” said MTA Chairman and CEO Joseph J. Lhota in a press release. Subway and bus fares will also increase. The fare hike still has to be approved by the MTA board at a meeting Dec. 19. Public hearings will be held throughout the metro area, including one at the Yonkers Public Library Nov. 15 from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. – By Sam Barron

NYPA petitions Federal Energy Commission to reconsider order NYPA, along with New York City, filed a petition Oct. 11, asking for a rehearing of a September order by the FERC to revisit a market pricing test of a Queens power plant. “The FERC order results in the unwarranted transfer of wealth from local and state governments and consumers to existing power planet owners,” Gil Quiniones, NYPA President and CEO, said in a press release. FERC waded into the pricing market set by the New York Independent System Operator (NYISO) after a complaint from the Astoria Energy II power plant in Queens. In 2010, NYISO performed a test to determine if a proposed new generator was likely to receive electric market revenues that equal or exceed its expected costs. Astoria Energy II passed the test and was cleared to move forward. After complaints by Astoria Generating Co. and TransCanada, FERC is asking NYISO to conduct another test with modifications, that NYPA claims will cause Astoria Energy II to fail the test, and force the power plant to increase its offer price, restricting it from the New York electric capacity market.

in brief IBM 3Q earnings dip IBM Corp. took an unexpected hit as net earnings declined slightly during the third quarter on a more than 5 percent decline in revenues. The Armonk-based company reported a third-quarter profit of $3.82 billion, down 0.4 percent from a third quarter 2011 profit of $3.84 billion. On a per-share basis, earnings rose 4.4 percent to $3.33 a share, from $3.19 a share a year ago, due to there being fewer shares outstanding during the most recent quarter. Revenues fell 5.4 percent to $24.7 billion,

from $26.2 billion a year ago. Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters had projected earnings of $3.61 a share and revenue of $25.36 billion. Ginni Rometty, IBM chairwoman and CEO, said the company is standing by its fullyear 2012 operating earnings per share expectation of at least $15.10.

PepsiCo earnings fall 5 percent PepsiCo Inc. reported third-quarter earnings and revenues each fell 5 percent compared with a year ago, as the Purchase

company’s Americas beverages unit saw sales slip considerably. Earnings for the 12 weeks ending Sept. 8 were $1.9 billion or $1.21 a share, compared with earnings of $2 billion or $1.25 a share, for the 12 weeks ending Sept. 3, 2011. The data topped market projections, with analysts polled by Thomson Reuters having forecast a third-quarter profit of $1.16 a share. Revenues fell to $16.7 billion from $17.6 billion in the third quarter of 2011, which PepsiCo attributed to previously

announced refranchisings in China and Mexico and to a negative 5 percentagepoint hit incurred from foreign exchange translation. The company said organic net revenue growth, excluding the latter two impacts, was 5 percent during the third quarter. The company’s Americas foods unit saw revenues increase 2.5 percent to $5.8 billion in the third quarter, while PepsiCo’s Americas beverages unit experienced a 7 percent decline in revenues, from $5.9 billion a year ago to $5.5 billion for the third quarter of 2012.

YOUR FREE 6-WEEK TRIAL MEMBERSHIP

The federal Economic Development Administration will award the Hudson Valley Food & Beverage Alliance $3.43 million to launch a new coalition and facility to help farmers affected by recent tropical storms, U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer announced Oct. 15. The funds will allow the Food & Beverage Alliance to build a new facility at the Culinary Institute of America, located in Poughkeepsie, designed to help farmers network with New York food and beverage producers and to develop relationships that could help those farmers to recover from a string of harsh weather over the past year, Schumer said in a press release. “This federal investment is incredible news for farmers across the Hudson Valley, who will finally see a source of relief from last year’s flooding through this unique rebuilding opportunity at the Culinary Institute of America,” Schumer said. The grant is contingent on receipt of final supporting documents by the Economic Development Administration, which is a division of the Commerce Department. – Patrick Gallagher

Altman Lighting Co. in Yonkers.

The abandoned Glenwood power plant.

Excelsior Packaging Group at 159 Alexander St.

Lighting company sees bright future as developer BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

manufacturer of theatrical and architectural lighting with more than 50 years in Yonkers is marketing its property on the Hudson River as a prime site for high-rise residential and mixed-use development in the city’s waterfront redevelopment scheme. Altman Lighting Co. Inc. has retained brokers in the Stamford office of CBRE Group to market the family-owned company’s 6-acre property at 57 Alexander St. to potential development investors and assemble a development team. Frank Tomasulo, senior vice president at CBRE who heads the marketing campaign with CBRE Vice President Paul Hoffman, said Altman Lighting will act as lead developer. The Altman property is included in the city’s master plan, adopted in 2009, to redevelop the underused and undervalued industrial area between the Hudson and the Metro-North Railroad tracks as a high-density neighborhood of townhouses and high-rise

apartments, retail stores and commercial offices, parks, esplanade and marinas near mass transit. Two prospective developers of vacant industrial properties, the former cable wire plant at 1 Point St. and the Glenwood power plant at 2 Glenwood Ave., failed in the recession and defaulted on their Yonkers mortgage loans or purchase options. The diminished prospects for the Alexander Street transformation brightened last year when investors led by Ron Shemesh, owner of Excelsior Packaging Group Inc. at 159 Alexander St., received the city planning board’s approval of plans to build 1,395 residential units and 85,000 square feet of commercial space in four phases on the 22-acre site at 1 Point St. The Yonkers City Council this month granted a one-year extension of the developer’s special-use permit for the project, which also would include redevelopment of the Excelsior Packaging plant site in the final phase. Shemesh and investment partners are expected to close on the purchase of the Glenwood power plant at the northern end

of the 1.3-mile-long, 112-acre waterfront corridor. A public-private partnership is seeking $25 million in state funding this year to aid an estimated $175 million project to restore and redevelop the 240,000-square-foot, 105-yearold power plant. Shemesh and partners extended their holdings on the waterfront this year when they paid $4.5 million to acquire two vacant properties from Sun Chemical Corp. at 94 Alexander St. and 35 Water Grant St. Tomasulo at CBRE said the Altman Lighting property “is the next logical site to be developed as you go north on the river” from City Pier and the Hudson Park residential and retail development of Collins Enterprises L.L.C. “It’s a unique site.” “We’ve had a lot of interest from developer-investors to join in on this project,” he said. “We’re talking to a number of them at this time.” Hedging against his company’s forced relocation if the city’s vision for the Alexander Street corridor is realized, Robert

Altman, president and CEO of Altman Lighting, several years ago bought nearly 15 acres of undeveloped land on the periphery of Stewart International Airport in Orange County as a possible site for relocation. Tomasulo said the company has several relocation options. Altman Lighting last year received financial incentives from the Yonkers Industrial Development Agency to aid the company’s project to modernize its plant to produce light-emitting diode or LED lighting systems. Altman’s short-lived 2010 agreement with Mandalap Enterprises L.L.C., a New Jersey private equity company, to manage the Yonkers plant’s day-to day operations and oversee its technological upgrade ended in late 2011 in a court settlement of a dispute over payments. Tomasulo said CBRE brokers and Altman have begun talks with city officials, who are “certainly enthusiastic” about the project. “We’re really at the conceptual stage of this right now,” he said.

Spinnaker looks to enter Westchester rental market BY PATRICK GALLAGHER pgallagher@westfairinc.com

pinnaker Real Estate Partners L.L.C. is forming a residential affiliate as it seeks to tap into the burgeoning market for multifamily residential units across the tristate region. Through Spinnaker Residential L.L.C., the Norwalk, Conn., developer, whose projects to date have been concentrated in Fairfield County and Portland, Ore., hopes to expand into New Haven, Westchester County and parts of New Jersey, executives said. “The apartment business, the rental business, has been the highlight of the real estate industry over the last two or three years,” said Mark Forlenza, a founding partner of Spinnaker Residential. “We’re beginning this project at just the right time.” Clayton Fowler, chairman and CEO of Spinnaker Real Estate Partners and a founding partner of the company’s residential affiliate, said one of Spinnaker’s primary goals will be to seek out development opportunities in Westchester, where he said demand for rental housing currently exceeds supply. “We’re looking forward to being in Westchester because they do need housing

production there of all sorts,” Fowler said. Spinnaker does not have any properties in Westchester to date, but in June the parent company signed a memorandum of understanding with the village of Pelham to convert village-owned parking lots into a 110-unit apartment complex. With recent graduates and younger families choosing apartments close to urban centers and empty-nesters increasingly seeking to remain in the Northeast, the residential apartment market is ripe for the picking, Forlenza said. “I think you’re seeing the revival of the market,” he said. “During the last four years, nothing was built for all intents and purposes. That, coupled with the expanding markets of both newly formed families and those desiring to maintain a mobile, flexible lifestyle, means you’re going to see a pretty robust need for apartment construction for several years to come.” Forlenza joins Spinnaker Residential after serving as an officer of AvalonBay Communities Inc., which is one of the dominant forces in the suburban New York City rental market with residential communities in Bronxville, Elmsford, Mamaroneck, New Rochelle and White Plains, among others.

He said Spinnaker Residential will likely not match AvalonBay in the quantity of projects it undertakes, but said the company’s goal is to focus “on the best deals.” “We’re going to do enough in the best locations for superior performance not only for our investors but also for our customers,” Forlenza said. Spinnaker Residential will initially focus on projects within a 50-mile radius of Norwalk and will explore both new developments and the repositioning of existing buildings that are available for acquisition, Forlenza said. Along with Forlenza and Fowler, Spinnaker Residential principals include Kim Morque, who has been a principal with Spinnaker since 1998, and Frank Caico, who has more than 15 years of experience in land use planning and development. Initially, projects will be capitalized from “internal resources,” Fowler said, with the company ultimately hoping to recruit investors on a deal-by-deal basis. Spinnaker Real Estate Partners currently owns, develops and manages 11 properties in Fairfield County, including Stamford’s The Campus, a joint venture with Steven Wise Associates L.L.C. that is home to Chelsea Piers Connecticut.

Also included in Spinnaker’s portfolio are nine developments in Portland, Ore., and one in St. Louis, Mo. A key factor in the creation of a residential affiliate was a desire to separate the company’s residential development activities from its commercial and retail ventures, Fowler said. “We do adaptive reuse, we do office, we do residential,” he said. “We do so many things and it’s so hard to focus on any one thing. We felt that in view of the world today ... that we ought to focus on something that we do sort of casually, and that’s apartments.” Fowler said Spinnaker Residential will differentiate itself by choosing the most soughtafter locations and emphasizing design and aesthetics. “Today’s rental is of much higher quality in terms of design and living space, as well as available amenities,” he said. Added Forlenza, “What we’d like to say is that the living room is the street, where people are going to be spending a lot of time in their neighborhood as opposed to in the swimming pool. We think that the trend is much more toward the rejuvenation of urban areas because of the fact that people bouncing into people is what living today is all about.”

Filling of property vacancy a boon to Pleasantville BY SAM BARRON sbarron@westfairinc.com

he closing on Pleasantville’s largest commercial property could help continue the revitalization of a previously forgotten area of the village and boost local businesses. Zwilling J.A. Henckels L.L.C., a cutlery company that produces knives and cookware, closed on the Medical Laboratory Associates (MLA) property at 270 Marble Ave. Oct. 5, purchasing it from Stop and Shop Supermarket Co. for $7.5 million. The 145,000-square-foot property had become vacant when MLA closed in 1997. Stop and Shop purchased it in 2001 hoping to build a supermarket on the site, but public opposition curtailed its plans.

“Our biggest commercial parcel has been vacant for 15 years,” Mayor Peter Scherer said. “That obviously has a negative impact. It’s disheartening to have that empty piece of property. This has been a high priority for me since I became mayor (in 2009).”

Henckels, which was previously headquartered in Hawthorne, will use about 100,000 square feet of the property as warehouse space and the rest as office space. The company also plans to raise the roof to have more clearance, rebuild the front of the building, and employ 75 people at the site. Construction is set to begin immediately, with the facility to open sometime next year. The move is a huge coup for the village, which has been looking for a buyer for years, frustrated with the eyesore MLA had become. Marble Avenue itself has seen numerous improvements recently, since the village

made several zoning changes as part of its master plan six years ago. Zoning districts were changed and modified, and the village streamlined its planning review process to make it easier for applications that came before the board. A’Mangiare, an Italian resident previously located in the old village section of Pleasantville, moved over to 59 Marble Ave. in the summer. Owner Luigi Dolgetta believes the improvements will help his business and the street as a whole. “Henckels will generate taxes and will cause people to come by for lunch,” Dolgetta said. “It’s a win-win for all of Pleasantville.” Robert Hashim opened the third location of Louie and Johnnie’s Cheesesteaks and Clam Bar at 501 Marble Ave. along the Thornwood-Pleasantville border this summer. Like Dolgetta, Hashim said Henckels coming into Pleasantville will be great for businesses. “Hopefully other companies will come in and further stimulate the village economy,” he said. Hashim said he chose to come into Pleasantville because it’s an area with a lot of diverse families and he felt he was filling a gap. “No one was doing what we do,” Hashim said. “We wanted to do something different, offer something unique. The community has been great; there are a lot of nice people.” In January, Ed Gaynor’s Infinity nightclub opened at 404 Irvington St., located off of Marble Avenue. Gaynor’s 8,000-squarefoot club hosts bar and bat mitzvahs, Sweet 16 birthday parties and other gatherings. “Pleasantville is a hub of Westchester,” Gaynor said. “It’s a lovely little village, and the planning board expressed an interest in this type of place. There’s really nothing like it.” Gaynor also sees positives with Henckels coming to the village. Gaynor, who used to DJ for Henckels’ parties, said the move will give Infinity exposure. “The increased traffic will help,” Gaynor said. “There’s no downside. I’m glad to see them coming in rather than a supermarket that would congest the area. They are a proven company with a very good product.” Mayor Peter Scherer said that the day the property closed would be a happy day for the village of Pleasantville. “Our biggest commercial parcel has been vacant for 15 years,” Scherer said. “That obviously has a negative impact. It’s disheartening to have that empty piece of property. This has been a high priority for me since I became mayor (in 2009).”

Merlin breaks ground on Westchester Legoland

Insurance broker Harrison-bound

Merlin Entertainments Group Ltd. and Forest City Ratner Cos. marked the start of construction on the Legoland Discovery Center Westchester at Ridge Hill in Yonkers Oct. 17, with plans to open in the spring of 2013. The $12 million development, which is being constructed by Merlin Entertainments, will total 32,300 square feet once completed and will feature more than 3 million Lego bricks. Attractions at the Discovery Center will include hands-on play areas, a 4-D cinema, master classes led by Lego builders, two Lego rides, event rooms, and Miniland – a re-creation of landmark locations and buildings from around Westchester County and New York City. Merlin Entertainments, which is headquartered in the United Kingdom and has a corporate office in New York City, currently has more than 90 attractions worldwide and 17 in the U.S., including Legoland theme and water parks in Winter Haven, Fl., and Carlsbad, Calif, and a Madame Tussauds attraction in New York City. Mayor Mike Spano and Forest City Ratner’s Kathy Welch applauded Merlin Entertainments for choosing to set up shop in Yonkers. Forest City is the developer of the Ridge Hill complex. “We couldn’t be more pleased to welcome a regional family destination like Legoland Discovery Center to Yonkers,” Spano said, in a statement. The ceremonial groundbreaking also featured remarks from Westchester County Director of Economic Development Laurence Gottlieb and Merlin Entertainments’ James Burleigh.

Hub International Group Northeast Inc. will relocate a northeastern satellite office from White Plains to 500 Mamaroneck Ave. in Harrison, the insurance brokerage’s new landlord announced. Hub signed a seven-year lease for 4,773 square feet of office space in the Class A building, said Jeffrey H. Newman, executive vice president of Malkin Properties. Malkin Construction will build out the space for the tenant. Patricia Valenti, principal with Newmark Grubb Knight Frank, brokered the deal for the tenant with Elizabeth Houley and Erica Rubenstein. Newman, Malkin Properties senior leasing associate Kimberly Zaccagnino and leasing associate Tara L. Long represented the landlord. Attorneys included Robert Levine of Cuddy & Feder L.L.P. for the tenant and David Bleckner and Ian Lester of David Bleckner P.C. for the landlord.

Office market remains sluggish BY SAM BARRON sbarron@westfairinc.com

estchester County’s commercial office market showed little momentum in the third quarter of 2012. According to a report by Jones Lang LaSalle, vacancy rates and average asking rental rates remained stable. The overall vacancy rate rose slightly to 18.9 percent, an increase of 1.1 percent from the last quarter, while Class A vacancies decreased by .1 percent year-to-year to 20.2 percent. Leasing activity also yielded little change. The county saw 390,000 square feet of space leased in the third quarter versus 372,000 square feet for the same period a year ago. Leasing volume year-to-year has been cut in half, from 2.1 million square feet to 1.2 million square feet. “While there are some pockets of strength, the Westchester office market is still challenged with slow demand and weak velocity,” said Robert Ageloff, international director and head of Jones Lang LaSalle’s Stamford office, in a press release. “Whatever activity there has been has become a game of musical chairs, where some tenants are trading up while others are trading down, and all the players are leaving equal or greater vacancy in their wake. Furthermore we are seeing a significant uptick in companies seeking government incentives.” Vacancy figures by CBRE Group Inc. show similar numbers, with an overall vacancy rate of 17.5 percent, compared to 16 percent a year ago. The size of the deals also remained sluggish. CBRE reported an average deal size of 4,742 square feet this year, compared to 4,557 square feet in 2011. According to a report by Newmark Grubb Knight Frank, only nine deals larger than 10,000 square feet closed during the quarter. The wholesale and retail industry led with 39.7 percent of all deals over 10,000 square feet, followed by financial services with 31.2 percent, and the government sector with 12.7 percent of total significant deals. The report also showed that rental rates are decreasing while the availability rate is increasing. The availability rate reached a record high of 23.2 percent at the end of the quarter, up from 22.6 percent in the second quarter and 22.4 percent one year ago. Newmark Grubb Knight Frank also reported that more property has become available than has been leased. The firm measured that the county had a net lease rate of – 246,360 square feet, which marked the seventh consecutive quarter with a negative amount and brought the year to year net total for the market to -664,118 square feet.

Four’s better than one for these restaurateurs Illustration by John Ashton Golden

BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

estaurateur John Gazzola at 31 is a savvy veteran of the industry – and the oldest guy in the triumvirate of hosts at a recent restaurant opening in White Plains – yet looks not long removed from senior photo day for his high school yearbook. It was at Iona Prep in New Rochelle where Gazzola, Class of 1999, met Ralph Battista, Class of 2000. Battista at 30 still looks capable of landing in detention as the gleeful mastermind behind some sophomoric locker room prank. He is his old Iona friend’s business partner as the two make a notable public debut in Westchester County as serial expansionists on restaurant row in downtown White Plains. In May, Gazzola and his partners in Public House Investments joined with Battista as their regional partner and White Plains manager to open Mulberry Street Italian Kitchen on East Post Road. They followed that with the late-September opening of Butterfield 8, a walnut-paneled member of the American gastropub species, where the menu of executive chef Matt Safarowic – he’s younger than Gazzola but older than Battista – includes Creole shrimp and grits, “tavern-style” meatloaf, pork belly sandwiches and “Homesick Texans” barbecue on Thursdays. The 5,000-square-foot bar and restaurant required what Gazzola called a “tricky” reconstruction of a former FedEx corner office at 147 Mamaroneck Ave. Come November, Gazzola, Battista and Safarowic will venture next door on East Post Road to open Lola’s Mexican Kitchen in a 3,000-square-foot space. “Mexican for Americans,” Battista, departing from standard public-relations text, described the restaurant concept and ethnic fare. Lola’s was not on the menu when Gazzola first eyed White Plains as a choice location for a Butterfield 8, two of which his company have opened in midtown Manhattan and Stamford, Conn. In Stamford, a Lola’s Mexican Kitchen opened across the street from Butterfield. “We think they complement each other well,” said Gazzola. Lola’s brand of Mexican food “is definitely something that’s missing” in the affluent metropolitan suburbs. “We noticed the same void in the White Plains market.” “We’ve literally been looking for about five years to find the right location in Westchester right here in White Plains,” said Gazzola. Their inaugural venture, Mulberry Street, an Italian family-style restaurant, “is one of those concepts that will grow slowly but will continue to grow for a long time.” Gazzola himself grew up in the business in which he has found success, or success found him, at a youthful age. His family owned the Beechmont Tavern on North Avenue in New Rochelle, where he worked his way up the ranks from dishwasher to manager. Graduating from Loyola College in Baltimore, he left his family’s business and went to work in sales and marketing for East Coast Saloons L.L.C., the New York City company that launched the nationally popular McFadden’s bar and restaurant chain. East Coast Saloons is headed by another Iona Prep graduate, John L. Sullivan. Those old Iona ties need not in business forever bind. Gazzola left the company with a colleague to start Public House Investments. He was 24 when the partners opened their first New York City restaurant. Seven years later, his company has launched nearly 20 restaurants in Philadelphia, Maryland, New York,

John Gazzola, left, and Ralph Battista at their new Butterfield 8 pub in White Plains.

Connecticut and Las Vegas, where its Public House restaurant opened in the Luxor Hotel and Casino. “It’s just really getting connected with the right people,’ he said of his success. Working with older, more experienced partners “certainly allowed me to do a lot of things I wouldn’t have been able to do on my own.” Having suffered financial dyspepsia from 2008 to 2010, the restaurant industry began recovering about two years ago, said Gazzola. “It’s definitely doing OK. We’re kind of the first indicator of how the rest of the economy is going,” he said. Battista too has worked in the industry since his schoolboy days. A chef trained at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park – he tweets on Twitter as “DaChefRB” – Battista started cooking at 15. “I used to be a caddy at Scarsdale Golf Club,” he confessed between an afternoon ribbon-cutting ceremony and an evening grand opening at Butterfield 8. “I was terrible at it, so I got a job in the snack shop.” Over a vat of nachos with cheese in Scarsdale, an executive chef was born. Battista had been cooking and directing kitchen staff at

waterfront restaurants in downtown Yonkers when the guy one year ahead of him at Iona called in 2008 with an offer of a job at Butterfield 8 in New York. “We recruited him hard,” said Gazzola. Battista last worked at the company’s Stamford gastropub before joining Gazzola in the ambitious White Plains venture. “We only came to White Plains thinking we want to do the Butterfield 8,” said Gazzola. “We had been looking for five years to find a spot for Butterfield. When we did, we didn’t find one, we found four spots.” Yes, four. In November, Gazzola and Battista plan to start construction on a fourth restaurant in vacated bar and restaurant space at 199-201 East Post Road. They have not decided what kind of restaurant that will be. “We’re waiting to see what’s missing here,” said Gazzola. “We don’t want to just open another business. We want to fill a void in this area.” Then they want to rest. “We’ve been expanding rapidly for a couple years,” said Gazzola. “We’re looking to take a break now.” WCBJ • October 22, 2012
