INDIAN POINT SAFETY ISSUES FOCUS OF FEDERAL HEARING

BY COLLEEN WILSON cwilson@westfairinc.com

G BIOTECH BOOSTER PAGE 4 Gov. Andrew Cuomo addresses Regeneron Pharmaceuticals employees at the grand opening of the biotech company’s $150 million expansion project in Mount Pleasant.

ov. Andrew M. Cuomo’s office reiterated its opposition to Indian Point Energy Center’s continued operation in a letter last week to the federal Nuclear Regulatory Commission as the nuclear power plant is the subject of a hearing this month on safety issues with the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board.

Jim Malatras, Cuomo’s director of state operations, in a Nov. 16 letter outlined reasons the nuclear power plant in Buchanan operated by Entergy Corp. should be shut down.

“Indian Point’s proximity to a major population center in New York City and surrounding areas — with more than 20 million people within 50 miles of the plant — makes

it absolutely impossible to have an effective safety and evacuation plan,” Malatras wrote. “No plan to manage the age-related defects at these facilities can adequately protect the millions of New Yorkers living nearby.”

The letter was made public hours after a Nov. 16 rally in Tarrytown where union workers and business leaders banded together to support Indian Point’s continued operation at the start of the agency’s hearing on the plant.

The rally was led by the Coalition of Labor for Energy & Jobs and New York Affordable Reliable Electricity Alliance.

Setting the stage for home sellers

WESTCHESTER COUNTY

BUSINESS JOURNAL

BY COLLEEN WILSON cwilson@westfairinc.com

T

here are not many people who can say that the Great Recession of 200709 laid a good foundation for their new business, especially those in the real estate sector.

But that was the case for Susan E. Atwell, who left a 15-year career in information technology and started her home staging company AtWell Staged Home in January 2008.

Around that time, houses on the market were losing value, owners and brokers were struggling to sell and the boom of house flipping and bidding wars had come to a grinding halt.

Atwell, who operates her business out of her home in Somers, said, “It was so hard back in 2008, 2009 for people to price their homes because things kept going down and they were always at the last price point.”

That was the case for one of Atwell’s first clients, a couple who had been trying to sell their home in Katonah for 14 months.

“They kept chasing the market, chasing, chasing, chasing with the price,” she said, until eventually the couple told their real estate agent they couldn’t bring the price down any more. “The agent was like, ‘Well, would you be willing to try staging?’”

The client paid Atwell $1,000 for her consultation in June 2009 and she created a staging plan for how to redesign the house and make improvements. After two weeks, the house went back on the market.

It sold in four days for $697,000, down from the original price of $715,000, but not lower than the price the couple and agent had agreed on.

It was that desperation felt by many home sellers that helped put Atwell and her new business on the map, especially with real estate agents, who often are the ones referring clients to stagers.

Today, Atwell’s clients — many are in Rockland, Westchester, Putnam and Fairfield counties — are making thousands of dollars in staging and home improvement investments and selling their homes above their asking price.

The link between refurbishing and success in selling homes has been noticed by Fiona Dogan, a realtor in the Rye office of Julia B. Fee Sotheby’s International Realty.

Dogan said she has seen the staging industry boom in Westchester County in the last couple of years. “People are starting to realize that in order to get top dollar, they have to keep up with the Joneses,” she said.

One of the reasons more turnkey homes are selling — houses that only require buy-

ers to turn the key to the front door and move in, rather than purchasing a home that needs work — has to do with social media and the way buyers are shopping.

Dogan said.

“The link between the buyer, the stager and how young people are buying online is incredibly important because it gets them in the door,” she said.

Young potential homebuyers are scanning Instagram, Pinterest or the HGTV channel where they see the trendiest furniture, art and designs. When millennials begin their homebuying seach, they vet the photos online first before even getting to the doorstep for an in-person look.

“They’re totally buying into a whole lifestyle that you’re offering them online,” Dogan said. “Staging is incredibly important in today’s world because of the photography.

Because almost 100 percent of buyers are shopping online, so the first time they see a house is online and if that photo doesn’t look like an HGTV flick, they won’t even go in.”

The presence of staging on TV and social media also has helped Atwell’s business. Now she is getting more calls from home sellers, whereas previously most of her referrals came from from real estate agents.

“It’s just the last couple of years where people are seeing (staging) more and more on HGTV and the actual home sellers are starting to call,” she said. “But that’s what’s interesting is that even though the market got better, the business seemed to get better, and you would think that in a bad market it would have been at its best.”

Atwell said her business doubled in 2014 from the previous year and that 2015 has been even busier.

The realization for people who want to sell their homes, she said, is that staging is becoming a must-do in this suburban market.

Another way to put it, she said: “It’s always the unstaged homes that sell the staged homes.”

’Tis the Season to Shop Small

BY KELLIE LEDET

S

mall businesses possess the power to propel local economies and uplift communities. When we open our wallets and shop small we’re supporting small businesses that create two out of three net new jobs and employ more than half of the country’s private workforce.

As the holiday shopping season kicks off, let’s recommit in honoring our neighborhood champions, America’s small businesses. Saturday, Nov. 28, is Small Business Saturday — a day to celebrate and support small businesses for all they contribute to our communities.

On this particular Saturday, do your part to support jobs and economic growth in your own backyard. Visit your Main Street merchants to find unique, handmade gifts that you won’t find at a big-box retailer.

Afterwards, dine small at your local restaurant to usher in the new tradition of supporting local eateries too. The restaurant industry employs 14 million Americans and generates $709.2 billion in sales, equal to 4 percent of the gross domestic product.

W

Shopping small packs a big punch to the U.S. economy. Did you know that last year, there were 88 million consumers “shopping small” on Saturday, and that 77 percent of consumers said Small Business Saturday inspired them to “Shop Small” throughout the year and not just for the holidays? In addition, 66 percent of consumers state the main reason they support small businesses is because of their contributions to the community.

Indeed, Main Street businesses are critical to our nation’s success and supporting Westchester County-based retail shops and restaurants during Small Business Saturday is an act of economic patriotism. To continue the entrepreneurial spirit of small businesses, please join me and the U.S. Small Business Administration in shopping and dining small on Saturday, Nov. 28.

For more information about Small Business Saturday, please visit sba.gov/smallbusinesssaturday.

White Plains Hospital opens Armonk center

hite Plains Hospital has expanded its service reach in Westchester with the opening this month of a 24,000-square-foot outpatient facility in Armonk that includes what hospital officials said is the first urgent care center in the county to be opened by a hospital.

White Plains Hospital Medical and Wellness opened with a Nov. 17 ribboncutting ceremony and open house at 99 Business Park Drive, adjacent to the Equinox Fitness Center. The facility also includes a diagnostic imaging center and medical offices.

“We have been a trusted provider of quality health services for residents of northern Westchester for years,” said White Plains Hospital President and CEO Susan Fox, “and we are pleased now to make many of those exceptional services available closer to home for this community.”

Physicians will staff the urgent care seven days a week, from 3 to 11 p.m. on weekdays and 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on weekends.

The center is designed to treat ailments and injuries during doctors’ offices’ off hours

that might not be severe enough to require emergency room visits.

Dr. Rafael E. Torres, director of emergency medicine at White Plains Hospital, has been named medical director for urgent care service at the Armonk center. “We hope that by bringing urgent care to Armonk, we will help fill a gap in the area, particularly for those individuals with less severe illnesses and injuries who can be treated effectively and efficiently in an ambulatory setting,” Torres said in the hospital announcement.

The diagnostic imaging centre is open from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. on weekdays and from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on weekends. Officials at the community hospital said it offers a full range of imaging and laboratory services.

The facility also offers primary medical care and specialty care that includes pediatrics, obstetrics/gynecology, endocrinology and specialty surgical consultations, in addition to physical therapy space.

The 292-bed White Plains Hospital is a member of Montefiore Health System.

Cuomo and patients celebrate Regeneron’s success with employees

BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

Employees at Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc. heard moving testimony from patients on the life-changing effects of new drugs developed in Regeneron labs on a day that celebrated both the opening of two buildings in a $150 million expansion and the Queens Connection at the biotech com-

pany’s headquarters on the Landmark at Eastview campus.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo — sheltered from rain and wind at the Nov. 12 ceremony under a tent that stretched about the length of a football field in a courtyard outside Regeneron’s new four-story buildings housing about 600 employees in 297,000 square feet of office and laboratory space — had his audience laughing as he traced the Queens

roots of the day’s political speakers and Regeneron’s co-founders.

Dr. Leonard S. Schleifer, CEO of Regeneron, and Dr. George D. Yancopoulos, the company’s chief scientific officer and president of Regeneron Laboratories, are both products of Queens, as is Cuomo and U.S. Rep. Nita Lowey, the 14-term congresswoman who spoke at the grand-opening event and former neighbor in Hollis of the Cuomo family. The governor amusingly recalled her criticism of the teenaged Andrew’s “grease-monkey” penchant for loud American muscle cars.

His Queens-bred father, the late Mario Cuomo, was governor when Schleifer and Yancopoulos more than a quarter-century ago sought state funds to assist their start-up company. The elder Cuomo in 1988 approved $250,000 in innovation financing for Regeneron, and the company the next year leased about 10,000 square feet of space at the Landmark at Eastview.

Today Regeneron occupies more than 1.1 million square feet and employs about 2,200 workers, from a total global workforce of about 4,000 employees, on the life sciences campus in the towns of Greenburgh and Mount Pleasant. Regeneron has about 1,100 employees at its upstate manufacturing facility in Rensselaer.

“He invested in Regeneron because he believed in Queens, basically,” Cuomo said of his father.

“My father would be so proud to be here today,” he said. Regeneron’s co-founders “dared to dream and dared to follow their dream even though it was a very long road.”

Cuomo cited the achievements of his administration’s “entrepreneurial government” in making the state more business friendly and closing the “commercialization gap” between academic research and discovery of new drug therapies and their development for the commercial market.

Entrepreneurial government, said Cuomo, is “government working hand in glove with private-sector companies to grow jobs and grow the economy.”

Key to that effort are the 10 regional economic development councils of public-sector and business leaders appointed by the governor. Cuomo drew upon those Queens connections and tapped Regeneron’s Schleifer to serve as co-chairman of the MidHudson Regional Economic Development Council.

“Once you’re in with the Cuomos, it’s hard to get out,” Schleifer bantered at the ceremony, calling his co-chairman’s post on the governor’s regional council “a life sentence.”

“So here I am, saying nice things about the governor,” he said.

Stacey Lane, a director of the Familial Hypercholesterolemia Foundation, and Austin Jacobson, a Bedford attorney, described years of suffering with rare diseases that finally were relieved or cured by Regeneron’s drug products.

Lane was diagnosed as a child with familial hypercholesterolemia, an inherited disorder that often leads to early cardiovascular disease from high levels of LDL or “bad” cholesterol. She was 6 when her father, a thin, athletic non smoker, died at 36 of heart disease.

Years of participation in clinical trials and studies and multiple-drug regimens failed to lower her dangerously high LDL levels, and Lane said she spent “my entire adult life” waiting for her first heart attack.

Two of her three children have inherited the disease.

Since using Praluent, an injectable antibody drug developed by Regeneron, “My cholesterol has been lowered to levels I would never have thought possible,” she said. “For the first time in my life, I have the hope of growing old with my husband, seeing my children as adults and seeing my grandchildren,” she said, Jacobson said the pain, grotesque physical appearance, and severe chronic itching caused by atopic dermatitis made him suicidal. “Everything about life just hurts,” he said.

The skin condition is like “poison ivy that doesn’t go away, that’s covered from head to toe with no chance of a cure … When you’re like me, scratching is the equivalent of breathing. I don’t have a choice.”

“Horror movies were coming to me to star in it,” Jacobson said of the disease’s effect on his appearance.

Told by his physician about dupilumab, a Regeneron drug therapy for inflammatory disorders that is in late-stage clinical trials, “I was a resistant as resistant can be,” Jacobson said. But the attorney decided to try the not yet marketed treatment.

“Within two hours of getting the drug, I knew I was on the pathway to a cure,” he said. “Within a month after taking this drug, I went from 100 percent covered to 100 percent cured.”

Jacobson thanked Regeneron employees. “You, without knowing it, saved my life,” he said. “You saved my life because you gave me hope. You gave me the ability to look like who I am — a human being, not a monster.”

“I have never once thought about suicide again,” he said. “I’m happy with my life because you guys gave it back to me.”

economic engine in general,” said Tom Ryan, president of Boilermakers Local 5 New York, which represents construction, repair and maintenance workers.

Indian Point provides about 25 percent of electricity to New York City and Westchester County, according to Entergy, and about 1,000 permanent jobs at the plant.

Since 2007, Entergy has sought to relicense the plant’s two operating reactors, Unit 2 and Unit 3, but has been caught up in legal issues as the state and environmental organizations including Riverkeeper have opposed the license renewals.

If the plant’s reactors are relicensed by the NRC, each reactor can operate for 20 more years. The reactors’ first operating licenses were issued for a period of 40 years, but Unit 2’s license expired in 2013 and that for Unit 3 will expire in December.

This month’s five-day hearing at the DoubleTree Hotel in Tarrytown marks the second round of safety-related challenges made by the state and Riverkeeper.

Three judges with the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board, an independent adjudica-

tory body of the NRC, have reviewed testimonies provided by expert witnesses on issues raised regarding the reactors’ pressure vessels, metal fatigue and other components related to the plant’s aging infrastructure.

The hearing is being held to allow the judges to ask questions; they will rule on the issues at a later date.

On another regulatory front, the New York Department of State this month determined the Indian Point operation was not consistent with the state’s coastal management policy. Certification by that state agency is needed before the federal Nuclear Regulatory Commission can act on Entergy’s reactors license renewal.

The Department of State is in charge of New York’s Coastal Management Program, which assures that projects in the state’s coastal zones will not have harmful effects on water or land in those areas. The state determines whether projects in the coastal zone are consistent with policies protecting and preserving the area before granting a coastal certificate from the state.

Because Indian Point uses billions of gallons of water from the Hudson River daily to cool its reactor towers, Entergy is required to obtain the Coastal Management Program certificate.

Entergy initially sought a determination from the state that its plant operation is consistent with coastal management policy in 2012, but withdrew its application last year after learning that the NRC would be issuing a new environmental statement supplement for the Buchanan plant in September 2016.

“The withdrawal was made by Entergy in order to ensure that (the state Department of State) has the opportunity to review an update to the federally issued Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement,” according to a statement from Entergy.

Entergy has asked that the Department

proven track record of success, making them the perfect ally as we move into Friedland Realty’s next chapter.”

A long-time business fixture on Central Avenue in Yonkers, Friedland Realty in the last two years has passed through two brief chapters in its 45-year history in Westchester and New York City, where it has been especially active in the Bronx.

In 2013, the company, then called NAI Friedland Realty Inc., announced a merger with Benson Commercial Realty Inc. and a transition in the president’s post at the Yonkers brokerage from Friedland to Scott H. Benson.

Both the merger and Benson’s tenure were short-lived.

In 2014, Ayall Schanzer, a corporate growth and turnaround specialist, took over as president and CEO of the renamed Friedland Realty Advisors. Schanzer led the company’s decision to relocate its headquarters from Yonkers to Harrison last spring, where it leases an approximately 8,000-square-foot office at 440 Mamaroneck Ave. In April, though, the brokerage announced that its founding chairman Friedland would return to head day-to-day operations as president and CEO. Schanzer’s departure after little more than one year at the firm was described as a mutual decision.

“That’s in the past,” Berger said of Friedland

of State’s Nov. 5 denial of the coastal certificate be considered invalid because the plant owner withdrew its application.

Entergy is also arguing in court that Indian Point was “grandfathered” into the Coastal Management Program because it received a coastal certificate in 1982 and therefore doesn’t need a new one.

A state appellate court agreed with Entergy’s grandfather clause argument in a 2014 decision, but the state appealed that ruling and the case is pending in New York’s highest court, the Court of Appeals. That case will most likely be argued next year.

Realty’s recent history of broken business relationships and executive departures. “It’s in the rearview mirror.” With his company’s financial investment in the brokerage and resources, “I think it’s going to be positioned very well for the future.”

Berger stressed that Friedland Realty will continue to operate as an independent company with long experience and success in the real estate industry. Friedland operates industrial, commercial office and retail brokerage divisions.

“We’re a smart investor in a synergistic business, and by no means are they an extension of Robert Martin,” Berger said. “We don’t look at them as a Robert Martin affiliate; we look at our investment as an additive to Friedland Realty.”

Responding to the Business Journal by email while traveling internationally, Friedland said the investment by Berger and his partners enables his firm “to take advantage of Robert Martin Company’s analytical and development staff and experience to develop creative real estate solutions for our clients. We believe this added expertise provides a significant competitive advantage for Friedland Realty across all of our divisions. In addition, we will be able to continue to expand our footprint in Connecticut and New Jersey as a result of the investment.”

Friedland said he will remain as CEO of the firm, “but we do expect to make additions to the executive leadership team in the near future.”

The company will continue to operate from its offices in Harrison and Manhattan, he said.

CHALLENGING CAREERS

BY CATHERINE PORTMAN-LAUX

Curbing anger is his business

David Haviland

D

avid Haviland, a licensed psychotherapist specializing in anger management, focuses on helping his patients to avoid what he terms “the big C.” In this case the “C” stands for “consequences” — consequences of unbridled anger: jail, lost jobs, broken relationships and even such medical problems as ulcers and migraines.

Hearing accounts of school killings, the public has become aware of need for intervention before anger gets out of hand, psychotherapists are finding. But less publicized than these sporadic incidents are anger situations in the home, on the job and in other situations.

Haviland practices out of the Cold Spring Healing Arts Center. His clientele includes individuals sent to him by the courts for a five-session psychoeducational program as an alternative to other sentences.

“I bond with patients by sharing my own anger issues,” Haviland says. “I was in a supermarket line once before heading to an appointment. The customer at the register was fiddling with coupons, a clerk was texting and the bagger was wrinkling papers into a ball and tossing them. The time for my appointment crept up and so did my anger. If I had gone into an uncontrollable

rage, the manager would have been calling the police.”

Haviland urges patients to measure their anger on a scale of 1 to 10, viewing nine as a final warning.

“You’re driving along and a motorist cuts you off. That might be a 2,” he says. “He gives you the finger and that might be a 5.

You drive eight miles, cut him off, get out of the car and push in his headlights. That’s a 10.” He urges patients to take control of themselves before their anger level reaches that extreme.

Haviland prides himself on successful intervention with a stay-at-home father whose wife was pursuing a career. “When she decided to leave him, he was without his own career. In anger he punched a hole through the wall before deciding to get a

hold on himself and seek therapy,” he relates.

“He got a job, a new apartment, learned to control his anger and ultimately got shared custody of his children.”

He also counsels couples who opt to have their relationship continue. “I tell patients that life in a marriage, employment situation or other relationship is a two-way street,” he says.

Raised in Larchmont, the oldest of 11 children, Haviland initially headed for a career in communications. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of California at Berkeley with a double major in communications and sociology. While working as a copywriter and creative director at CBS and Viacom, he created public-service announcements and advertisements to promote such programs as the Harlem Children’s Zone.

Through this work he recognized a calling to be of service to others and went on to earn a master’s degree in social work from the State University of New York at Albany.

Licensed by the state Department of Education as a clinical social worker with psychotherapy privileges, he began his practice part-time while remaining in the business world. Eventually he stepped down from a $100,000-a-year corporate job to accept $41,000 annually at St. Francis Hospital and Health Centers in Poughkeepsie, where he spent seven years while continuing to build a private practice. He maintains a website, Angermanagementamerica.com.

Haviland and his wife, Deborah, an artist, reside in Cold Spring and are the parents of two grown daughters, Stephanie and Rebecca.

The emerging market for battery storage

W

ith its population approaching 1 million, along with roughly 32,000 businesses, the costs of being without power are becoming increasingly apparent for Westchester County.

During outages, seniors struggle, resulting in an increased use of emergency response services, county businesses feel the impact of disruption to their operations and general living for residents is compromised.

Additionally, county residents and businesses endure high electricity rates while remaining vulnerable to increasing power outages due to more extreme weather.

Yet a new class of non generator-based battery storage systems is not only providing power during emergencies, but also helping to cut electricity costs throughout the year.

Following 2012’s Hurricane Sandy when power outages endured for days and even weeks and fuel supplies became strained, state and local officials began taking a closer look at the problems of relying mainly on gasoline and diesel-fired generators. Officials also took note that many owners of solar arrays couldn’t use the electricity being generated from their systems due to electric utility safety regulations to protect their linemen.

Meanwhile, one year earlier, the idea of battery storage playing a much larger role

within the photovoltaic solar industry began to take shape in Germany. From 2013 on, German homeowners were allowed to install battery storage systems to their new or existing solar arrays and to use their stored electricity within their own battery banks when the sun went down. It became the first developed country to successfully demonstrate how adding battery storage to existing solar arrays could go a long way to solve the intermittency of solar-produced electricity.

For the first time, fully integrated battery storage systems—those which contained power inverter electronics, battery racking and batteries along with monitoring performance systems all in one lockable enclosure — began to appear. Such fully integrated systems represented a major change in design within the battery storage market, which has been long known for installers and integrators having to figure out how to design and install their own such systems.

In 2013, New York state officials, the state’s Public Service Commission, in-state electric utilities and other stakeholders came together to explore the process of overhauling the current electric utility operating regulations to allow for more market-side deployment of technologies such as PV solar and battery storage. The initiative, Reforming the Energy

Holiday Season!

Vision (REV), is a centerpiece in Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s administration to drive clean energy innovation, bring new investments into the state and allow more consumer choices.

By installing more solar and battery storage, the state’s electric utilities and its customers might be able to save energy and money during the peak summer demand for air conditioning while providing more back-up power during summer and winter storm-related power outages.

For the electric utilities, using more battery storage within its backbone, combined with numerous customer-sited battery storage sites, can provide them with a wider range of tools to manage their grids in response to changes in demand or when weather or other events disrupt grid service.

As REV continues to move forward, several key benefits have been identified. For residential and commercial customers who cannot or will not use fossil-fuel-fired generators, battery storage systems become effective protection during power outages. They are also quiet, installed indoors and do not produce any carbon monoxide one of the greatest risks of using any fossil fuel-based generators.

Combining solar arrays with battery storage allows customers to consume at night the

electricity made during the day from their solar modules. This minimizes the need for gasoline, diesel or propane to run generators during extended power outages when fuel supplies can become limited.

For commercial meter accounts, battery storage allows the business owner to minimize demand charges, participate in electric utility demand response programs and become aware of and practice time of use-bill management programs offered by a variety of energy services firms. Currently, both the New York State Energy Research Development Authority and Con Edison offer installation funds and ongoing financial incentives to install battery storage systems in conjunction with Con Edison’s Demand Response Participation Program.

In the near future, battery storage both with and without the use of solar arrays will undoubtedly become an important part of Westchester County’s energy mix, not only for power outages, but to save area businesses on their electricity bills during peak summer and winter demand periods.

INBRIEF STARWOOD MERGES WITH MARRIOTT The boards of directors of Stamford-based Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. and Marriott International Inc., based in Bethesda, Md., have unanimously approved a $12.2 billion deal the companies are calling a definitive merger agreement under which they will create the world’s largest hotel company.

In a joint statement Nov. 16 announcing the deal, Starwood and Marriott said the combined company will have 1.1 million rooms in more than 5,500 hotels in more than 100 countries. The deal involves 30 brands and will offer “substantial economies of scale,” the companies said. The combined company’s pro forma fee revenue for the 12 months ended Sept. 30 totals over $2.7 billion.

“The transaction combines Starwood’s leading lifestyle brands and international footprint with Marriott’s strong presence in the luxury and select-service tiers, as well as the convention and resort segment, creating a more comprehensive portfolio,” the companies said.

The merged company will offer broader choices for guests, greater opportunities for associates and should unlock additional value for Marriott and Starwood shareholders, according to the statement.

Under the terms of the agreement, at closing, Starwood shareholders will receive 0.92 shares of Marriott International Inc. Class A common stock and $2 in cash for each share of Starwood common stock.

Starwood shareholders would own approximately 37 percent of the combined company’s common stock after completion of the merger.

Total consideration to be paid by Marriott totals $12.2 billion, consisting of $11.9 billion of Marriott International stock and $340 million in cash.

Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide in 2011 relocated about 800 employees from 1111 Westchester Ave. on the Platinum Mile in White Plains when it opened its new Harbor Point headquarters in Stamford.

Is It Worth the Risk to Keep Growing?

Why should I keep trying to grow my business? It feels like bigger isn’t necessarily better or more profitable.

Bigger = more employees, more issues, more headaches, more complexity, more cost, more risk. Who needs that!

THOUGHTS OF THE DAY: Businesses are either growing or declining. What you know for today isn’t necessarily sufficient to get you through tomorrow. With growth comes opportunity to get the load off your back.

Learn how to hire, train, motivate, manage, reward and hold people accountable.

Enforce standards.

It’s not possible to stand still for long.

Costs keep climbing, for everything from production materials to office supplies to people and benefits. Without additional profits to cover cost increases, your business will be forced to make do with less and less of what it needs, and that puts you on track for an ugly downward spiral.

Watch out that feelings of being overwhelmed don’t get in the way of doing your job, which is figuring out how to keep your business ahead of the curve. If you truly believe that you can’t handle any more growth, do yourself and your business a favor. Take a vacation, hire some help, think about selling the business, or turn it over to someone with more ambition and drive. Don’t kill the business just because you’re worn out or don’t feel up to the challenge.

If you are prepared to keep going, think down the road one, two, three and more years. Set targets to keep your company on point. Figure out what’s needed to achieve profitable growth. Make a plan to get people and things in place before you need them.

As the business expands, you need more knowledge in order to keep up. Make time to read regularly. Take notes and put what you learn into action. Build an idea lab to test concepts. Design systems that can save time and effort.

Help current staff build skills. Pay for education and make sure every employee has a training plan. Show employees and managers how to use written plans to get to the next level.

When openings come up, hire the most experienced personnel you can afford.

Learn how to recruit great talent that

fits your business. Institute background checks and set up on-boarding systems to boost hiring success.

Look on the bright side. With more profitable revenue you can hire people to take things off of your plate. More depth, more cross training, more backup — all this comes with growth. And that means you get freed up.

More profitable revenue = ability to hire more experts to help you succeed. Reach out to people you admire and find out how they got where they wanted to go. Regularly interview potential advisors to learn how they can assist. Keep an eye on challenges that could require extra attention. Increase your development budget annually.

Master the people side of the business. Dedicate time and energy to improving your workforce. If someone gets stuck don’t ignore the problem; enlist additional support. Know when and how to move on if things don’t improve. If you’re unsure how to manage effectively, get instruction.

Accept that things will go wrong. Teach people that it’s okay to make mistakes, but it’s not okay to blindly repeat them. Learn from every failure. Hold everyone accountable for continuous improvement.

Set up an organization chart and practice chain of command. Get good at organizing regular, productive management meetings. Ask people to circulate written reports documenting how they’re doing.

Be clear about what you expect. Share a vision of where the company is going.

Expect everyone around you to be fully on board and rowing hard.

Every successful business owner has had to master the skills of forecasting, leading, managing and strategic planning. No one expects you to be an expert right out of the box. But you are expected to be fully engaged with learning how to productively expand your business.

SPECIAL REPORT REAL ESTATE

Downtown project could add to Port Chester’s housing surge

BY EVAN FALLOR Evan@westfairinc.com

A

proposed mixed-use development targeting millennials in the heart of Port Chester’s downtown could make its way to the village board for zoning approval early next year, officials said this week.

Village Planner Jesica Youngblood said a plan to build a maximum 79-unit apartment building with 14,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space at the intersection of Westchester Avenue and Main Street will be presented to the village Board of Trustees at its Jan. 4 meeting.

An attorney for the developer, G&S Port Chester LLC, an entity of G&S Investors in Manhattan, said the plan is a mix of predominantly studio and one- and two-bedroom apartments in what would be a maximum five-story building.

The vacant, undeveloped site, known as “Coney’s Lot” in submitted plans, it is currently zoned for 40,000 square feet of retail space. A previous developer was approved for a 40,000-square-foot retail development on the site in 1999, which would have required village trustees to adopt a zoning amendment. That plan never came to fruition.

“This is very different than that,” Youngblood said of the G&S proposal.

Dan Tartaglia, the attorney representing G&S Port Chester, said the proposed transitoriented development is geared toward millennials and young professionals who could take advantage of the village’s Metro-North train station across Main Street. The site is also across from an AMC Loews movie theater and a Buffalo Wild Wings location, and the Capitol Theatre and several restaurants including bartaco, Saltaire Oyster House and Copacabana Steakhouse are within walking distance.

G&S Investors also developed The Waterfront at Port Chester, a 500,000-squarefoot retail hub that houses the Loews cinema complex as well as Costco, Bed Bath and Beyond, Super Stop & Shop and Marshalls.

“We’re seeking to put in a residential mix to continue to strengthen the downtown

retail,” Tartaglia said. “Retail reinforces and provides services for residents. Both uses end up reinforcing each other.”

Tartaglia said although no retail tenants have yet been selected, they would most likely be small businesses and neighborhood retail rather than the national retailers that make The Waterfront a shoppers’ destination. A restaurant tenant is also possible, he said. The village’s 2012 Comprehensive Plan calls for mixed-use development in that downtown area.

Pending board approval, Tartaglia said he hoped the site plan review could be completed by the end of 2016.

The attorney did not provide an estimated cost for the project.

Youngblood called architect’s renderings for the site “very preliminary,” adding that design and contruction details of the building would be worked out during the site review phase pending village board approval of amended zoning. She said G&S could lower the number of residential units before a formal application is submitted.

Youngblood said a board vote on the zoning amendment could come at the January meeting if the developer has completed the state-required environmental impact report for the proposed project by then.

“Port Chester fits strategically between Stamford, where there is a number of millennial, senior housing and transit-oriented developments as well as White Plains and New Rochelle,” she said. “It’s also in a very nice position at the elbow of many transportation routes in the region.”

The Coney’s Lot project is the latest in a series of housing and mixed-use developments that have been completed or are planned for the village of 29,000 residents.

Starwood Capital Group, based in Greenwich, has proposed a $300 million redevelopment of the former United Hospital property at 406 Boston Post Road. The project, now being reviewed by village officials and the subject of public hearings, includes 90,000 square feet of street-level shops and restaurants, a 135-room hotel, 217,000 square feet of office space, 500 residential units for young professionals and 230 age-restricted

G&S Investors plans to develop this vacant lot in downtown Port Chester for rental apartments and retail space.

senior residential units.

Closer to the downtown G&S site, The Mariner, a $35 million, 100-unit luxury apartment building developed by Phoenix Capital Partners L.L.C., opened at 21 Willett Ave. in October 2012.

Youngblood cited two projects under construction - The Castle, a mixed-use redevelopment with 120 residential units and ground-floor office space at 201 Willett Ave. developed by the Maryland-based Bozzuto

Group, and a 50-unit rental building at 120 N. Pearl St. developed by Lighthouse Enterprises LLC in White Plains - as adding to the collective effort to make Port Chester a destination for millennials and empty nesters through housing and retail development.

Youngblood called the projects a “redevelopment renaissance.” The village, which developed a Comprehensive Plan and made zoning amendments to boost local business, is now seeing the “fruits of that labor,” she said.

he village of Sleepy Hollow is the kind of cozy community where yesterday and today happily coexist. Think Philipsburg Manor, an 18th century mill and farm that was worked by slaves; the Old Dutch Church; Sleepy Hollow Cemetery; and, of course, Washington Irving’s “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” whose ungainly hero, Ichabod Crane, has been transformed by Hollywood into a hunky detective.

So it’s not surprising that one of its prominent houses — a stately stone affair with stunning views of the Hudson River — should have a colorful past and an equally engaging present.

“It’s an awesome house,” says owner David Fink, “a big, easy house.”

Indeed, from the moment you set foot in the sweeping hallway of Pokahoe — with its 18-foot barrel-vaulted ceiling supported by Doric columns and its commanding throughview to the river — your first and last thoughts are of spaciousness (elegantly punctuated by French doors). Whether you’re in the living areas, kitchen or dining room, all is light, airy and, yes, easy. And that is due to owners who have clearly married an enthusiasm for the house’s history — it is, after all, on the National Register of Historic Places — to the needs of a contemporary family.

As he talks, Fink — whose company, Think Fink, produces corporate events — pulls out books and newspaper clippings about the house and considers the role of the Dutch in New York’s financial destiny. His home doesn’t go back that far but rather to 1848 when it was built by James Watson Webb, a newspaper editor with diplomatic ambitions.

“He was quite a character,” Fink says. “He was trying to position himself for a diplomatic posting but one he liked — London or Paris.” According to correspondence with President Abraham Lincoln, Fink says, Webb

turned down a chance to serve as U.S. envoy to the Ottoman Empire and instead wound up ambassador to Brazil.

His reversal of financial fortune led former New York City Mayor Ambrose C. Kingsland Sr. to buy the house for $25,000 in 1864. But Kingsland never lived in it and instead sold it to John C. Frémont (for whom Fremont, Calif. is named) and his wife, Jessie Benton Frémont. Talk about your characters. Frémont was a maverick — a Western trailblazer, a passionate abolitionist and a far-thinking, but insubordinate Civil War general who had been the first presidential candidate of the newly formed Republican Party in 1856, paving the way for the more temperate Lincoln. Mrs. Frémont was his equal, Fink says — an independent-minded, financially savvy woman in an era when women were expected to defer to their husbands. Despite this, the Frémonts, too, experienced financial difficulties and the house reverted to Kingsland.

It seems as if Pokahoe, as either Webb or Frémont named it in homage to the Indians, was destined to thrive only to sputter. In 1928, the house became part of Sleepy Hollow Manor Inc., which fizzled during the Depression. By World War II, the three-story manse, which had 14 fireplaces, had fallen into disrepair, becoming a ranch-style home in the 1950s.

Enter Mary Butler-Fink, David Fink’s wife.

She and her first husband bought the house in 2002. (The house, Fink says, was actually under contract to someone else who failed to show for the closing, which was on Sept. 11, 2001.) Working with architect Tom Felton of Studio 511, Butler-Fink and her then husband spent 18 months and more than $1.2 million on a restoration-renovation of the house — raising ceilings, adding a second floor, piecing together fireplaces with marble that had been discarded on the site and painting the home in historical colors (pale yellows and greens, blues in various hues.)

Yorktown Costco approved by planning board

J’s will soon have competition in Yorktown.

The town’s planning board this month unanimously approved a long-delayed plan that would bring a Costco Wholesale Club and members-only gas station to 3200 Crompond Road.

At its Nov. 9 meeting, the board approved a 151,000-square-foot Costco store on the 19-acre parcel near the intersection of Crompond Road and the Taconic State Parkway. BJ’s Wholesale Club, a national rival of Costco, operates a store at 3303 Crompond Road.

The $60 million project proposed by Garden City-based developer Retail Store Construction Co. - a subsidiary of Breslin Realty Development Corp.- dates to 2009. After legal delays, all State Environmental Quality Review Act requirements were completed by TRC Engineers of Hawthorne earlier this year.

The board spent more than an hour amending the resolution, including adjustments to lighting, road improvements and demolition plans. After the plan was unanimously approved, residents attending the meeting joined in applause and an “Oy vey”

Pokahoe — From page 12

At the same time, Pokahoe has a host of modern amenities, Fink says — five air-conditioning zones, a modern kitchen; four up-todate baths, including a spacious one in the dreamy deep-blue master suite; and plenty of storage space, particularly in the basement, which contains an intimate wine cellar. It is in the basement where the past really comes alive as Fink tours you through spaces in which the kitchen, day stable and slaughterhouse were located.

A former partner in Broadstreet — the corporate communications arm of Drexel Burnham Lambert that was spun off into an independent company after Drexel’s 1990 bankruptcy — Fink went to high school on Long Island with Butler-Fink, with whom he was friendly but not romantic. A reunion enabled them to get better acquainted, and they became a couple in 2004.

Now the couple is looking to relocate to eastern Long Island, and has listed Pokahoe with Julia B. Fee Sotheby’s International Realty at a price of $3,095,000.

And, perhaps, take on another historical project?

Says Fink with a smile, “I would love to.”

This article was reprinted from the November issue of Wag magazine, the sister publication of the Westchester County Business Journal.

was heard from a member of the planning board.

Town Supervisor Michael Grace, a longtime supporter of the project, said he hoped the Costco would become the anchor for high-end commercial development in Yorktown.

“We’re thrilled that the plan was finally approved,” Grace said. “It probably took longer than it should have, but notwithstanding we’re thrilled because we’ve been trying to bring investment into Yorktown. Hopefully this is just the beginning of continued investments into the town’s economy.”

Grace said real estate property tax revenue from Costco will benefit both the town and the Yorktown school district, which he called “significant in these days.”

The store will include a four-bay loading dock and tire center, 610 on-site parking spaces and a 12-pump gas station for Costco members with three pump islands. The on-site gas

station was strongly opposed by independent gas station owners in Yorktown.

The project hit a snag in April when three parties — Yorktown Smart Growth, a citizens development watchdog group, Yorktown Gas Mart Inc., and Quick Stop Central Ave. Inc.filed a lawsuit against town officials and Breslin Realty Development claiming the big-box store would hurt local gas station owners and seeking to have the town’s approval of the project overturned. Also named in the suit was BJ’s, which, along with Costco, was issued a gas station permit by the town in December.

A state Supreme Court judge handling the case last month ordered that the challenges to the Costco and BJ’s projects be argued as separate cases.

The lawsuit, reflecting a sentiment shared by several town residents at public hearings, also alleged the arrival of Costco would create more traffic problems along an already-congested Crompond Road. The developer esti-

mated the site would generate an additional 758 vehicles per hour.

The Costco site was formerly occupied by the Yorktown Country Inn, which closed more than 20 years ago. The vacated motel was last used as a county-run homeless shelter, which Grace said closed roughly 10 years ago. The deteriorated, graffiti-covered building, which will be demolished, has sat vacant since.

Grace said Costco wants to begin construction “as soon as practical.” Representatives from Breslin Realty Development could not be reached for comment at presstime.

“Hopefully the demolition occurs very shortly,” Grace said. “The developers were anxious to get approval, so I anticipate early next year they can get things underway.”

Costco, headquartered in Issaquah, Washington, also operates stores in Yonkers, New Rochelle and Port Chester. Only the New Rochelle warehouse store also includes an on-site gas station.

DEALS &DEEDS STOP & SHOP OPENS MOUNT KISCO STORE The Stop & Shop Supermarket Co. LLC this month opened a Stop & Shop grocery in the former A&P location at 195 N. Bedford Ave. in Mount Kisco.

The Quincy,Massachusetts-based supermarket chain closed the A&P store Nov. 13 and re-opened Nov. 19.

Stop & Shop, which operates a regional office in Purchase, bought 25 former A&P, Pathmark and Waldbaums stores throughout the New York metropolitan area for $146 million after The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co. declared bankruptcy in July. The Mount Kisco store, A&P’s most profitable Westchester location, was Stop & Shop’s sole Westchester acquisition.

The Stop & Shop chain, owned by Dutch retailer Ahold, broke the conversions of former A&P stores into five waves; the Mount Kisco location is part of the final wave, which

also includes stores in Queens, Staten Island and Long Island.

Stop & Shop New York Metro Division President Don Sussman said recently that despite the rapid turnover, all store conversions were expected to be completed by the holiday season.

“We’ve completed the conversion process of more than half of the 25 newly acquired A&P stores to Stop & Shop stores,” Sussman said. “This has been a monumental task for all those involved.”

Other former A&P stores in Westchester were acquired by Pennsylvania-based Acme Markets Inc.; Staten Island-based Key Food Stores Co-operative Inc.; CVS Pharmacy; Mount Vernon-based PSK Supermarkets Inc.; CW A&P Mamaroneck LLC; and Queens-based LLC Shanghai Enterprises.

DOWNTOWN OSSINING BUILDING SOLD

That’s Westchester Smart.

An unnamed Westchester investor paid $1.36 million in cash to acquire 175 Main St., a three-story, 13,900-square-foot corner property in Ossining’s downtown business district.

The buyer, whose purchasing company is 175 Main Street Realty LLC, acquired the property from Rese Realty in a deal brokered for the seller by Admiral Real Estate Services’ John Barrett, head of the Bronxville company’s investment sales division, and Admiral retail associate Joan Simon. The building has retail frontage on Main Street with additional lower-level frontage on the Old Croton Aqueduct.

Simon, who brought the building’s retail space to full occupancy prior to the sale, said the property has five ground-floor retail tenants, including Karma Lounge Restaurant, Boost Mobile and All State Insurance — in addition to office and retail tenants on upper floors.

Barrett said there was “substantial interest in the property, and we received multiple highly qualified offers. We continue to see buyers execute quickly to lock in transactions, as sellers take advantage of the high level of liquidity in the market”.

Julian Aronin, director at the Hartsdale brokerage, and Barry Endelson, the firm’s president, negotiated the long-term lease.

Brokers said the Scarsdale retail center will soon be fully leased with the expansion of an existing tenant into a vacant store. Salon Centric, a national beauty supply chain, also recently opened there, they said.

Drones over Westchester homes

U

ntil now, when a real estate agency wanted to show the breadth and scale of a magnificent estate, it would require hiring a helicopter for the photographer to take pictures high above the leafy streets and lawns. Now all that’s changed, courtesy of drones.

Among all the possible uses for drones, real estate photography is a natural. It is swiftly moving from being a novelty in the home-selling process to being an indispensable tool for real estate agencies that recognize its potential.

“For us, drone photography has become an invaluable tool for showing off an expansive home’s scope and proportions, as well as its larger setting,’ said Joe Houlihan, managing partner of Houlihan & O’Malley Real Estate Services in Bronxville. It also has the potential to show how close the homes are to the local shops, train station, and schools, a major selling point in desirable communities such as Bronxville.

Drones are not only cheaper to fly than helicopters, they’re also more flexible. They can fly at heights as low as 80 feet and as high as 200 to 300 feet.

There’s also the issue of minimizing the disruption and noise. A helicopter shot might be simple high over sprawling estates

in Bedford, Greenwich, or the Hamptons.

But in the closely developed communities of mid- and lower-Westchester, it pays to be able to get close in without the deafening sound of a copter blade.

In preparation for marketing a home for sale on Pine Terrace in Bronxville, Houlihan & O’Malley hired photographer Frank Ambrosino because of his skill in taking pictures with a drone. Ambrosino’s aerial shots capture the expanse of the 3,650-square- foot house and highlight its spacious backyard.

While they are becoming more and

more popular and the technology is highly advanced, drones can still be fairly complicated to fly. They require good hand-eye coordination, said Ambrosino, who over the last year has photographed some 50 homes with his drone.

Soon the devices will be able to do even more. The drone company DJI, which made Ambrosino’s device, is developing ones with sensors that detect objects and walls so that the drone can avoid them, cruising smoothly and harmlessly through a home’s rooms and hallways as it takes interior photos and video.

S

ome 250 people celebrated Westchester and Fairfield counties’ young professionals who are making an impact in their jobs and in their communities at Westfair Communications’ first Milli Awards recently. The 22 winners dispelled stereotypes and inspired the audience with their passion at the event at Chelsea Piers Connecticut in Stamford.

Winners represented the spectrum of industries, from law to medicine, from banking to education and from nonprofits to technology.

Guests networked with food, drinks and take-home items from sponsors and supporters and a photo booth. The award ceremony included a keynote speech from Britta Mulderrig, marketing manager at Uber.

The event benefited Community Plates, a nonprofit whose mobile application, GoRescue, enables volunteer “food runners”

to connect with places that have leftover food and then distribute it to those in need.

Melissa Spiesman, national site director of Community Plates, said in Fairfield County alone, 6.8 million meals and 10.4 million pounds of food have been rescued and delivered. She announced that the organization is in the process of launching a new app for next year.

“There’s a great potential for us to stay ahead of the technology and continue to innovate and change the game,” Spiesman said. “We need to keep it simple for our food runners and our food donors to stay engaged.”

Winners received 3D-printed awards from Mini 3D Me in Yorktown Heights. Upon accepting their awards, winners answered one of the following questions: If you could have lunch with anyone (living or deceased), who would it be and why? What do you think is the biggest stereotype about millennials and how do you prove it wrong or right? Love, passion or money: what do you

work for and why?

WCA ISSUES 2015 ECONOMIC UPDATE FOR WESTCHESTER FRONTLINE OUTLINES THE TOP TRENDS

1.

It’s not just Manhattan; the demand for rental apartments in Westchester and the region is also hot, hot, hot

Westchester’s current apartment vacancy rate is a scant 2.8%, and builders are responding to the demand. More than 50 major real estate projects have been proposed, started, or recently completed in Westchester, and many are mixed-use projects with residential rentals. Next year, 1178 rental units will come on line, compared to merely 108 this year and 207 in 2014.

What’s behind this surging demand?

Westchester’s population has increased 3% from 2010 to 2014, and the county’s big employers, such as biotech giant Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, are hiring. Lower rents in Westchester are enticing millennials north of NYC.

NIMBYism is giving way to reality

Westchester city and town officials realize they can’t keep saying no to development. Frontline reports that communities are beginning to view residential/mixed use development as a way to overcome persistent challenges. Seth Pinsky, former president of the New York City Economic Development Corporation, explains that suburban communities are losing their commercial tax bases because they can’t attract young people or keep retirees.

“Remaining residents are left to shoulder a bigger tax burden,” he says. “But, people are waking up and realizing they don’t have a choice.

If they want to preserve what they love about the suburbs, they have to think differently.”

3.

Transit-Oriented Development is an engine of progress

Westchester County’s biggest growth spurt occurred between 1950 and 1960, when the population jumped 29.3% to 808,891 from 625,816. Much of the residential growth took place in communities connected to New York City through commuter rail lines. Today, once again commuter lines are stimulating economic growth. Millennials, young professionals, and empty nesters want to live close to mass transit.

So, TOD projects are taking shape in Westchester’s cities—namely Yonkers, White Plains, New Rochelle, and Mount Vernon—as well as in the villages of Mamaroneck, Harrison, Bronxville, Tarrytown, and Port Chester. “It’s back to the future,” explains Bill Mooney, President & CEO of the Westchester County Association.

4.

Healthcare is King, but there are challenges.

Westchester County has booming biotech and healthcare sectors. That’s the good news. But with technology moving at a faster pace than the workforce, 2,500 jobs in these sectors are going unfilled. To help meet employers’ needs, the WCA launched the Hudson Valley Workforce Academy, in conjunction with the area’s colleges and universities, where employees can upgrade their skills as employers try to solve a critical workforce issue.
