lthough not exactly a new trend, area Realtors say that converting vacant office space into residential properties is continuing to gain momentum — reflective of the ever-growing “LiveWork-Play” paradigm. “It’s all a matter of, ‘Where can I get the most return for the money I’m putting in?’” said Jim Fagan, senior managing director of Cushman & Wakefield of Connecticut Inc. Fagan, who is responsible for the management of Cushman’s Stamford and Westchester County offices, said developers are now “looking a little outside of the box, determining whether they should just be refurbishing an office space or turning it into something else.” Abandoned office properties are often “obsolete and underparked,” said Thomas Pajolek, executive vice president at CBRE in Stamford. “They’re without the nearby amenities that people are increasingly looking for and they’re often light-challenged.

Developer plans 240 residences in Yorktown
BY ALEESIA FORNI aforni@westfairinc.com
A
developer is floating plans to construct 240 residences and more than 30,000 square feet of commercial space on a forested parcel that sits between Route 202 and the Bear Mountain Parkway. Howard Zelin of Zell Development Corp. presented his preliminary plans to
the Yorktown Planning Board during a recent work session. His plans call for the construction of The Crompond Terraces, six three-story buildings composed of 30 apartments each on the northern 16.9-acre portion of the property. On the lower 6.71-acre parcel, a three-story building would contain 31,000 square feet of commercial space on the first floor. The upper two floors of that building
would include 30 residences on each floor. The 23.61-acre property at 3258 Old Crompond Road is in the center of a region referred to as the Bear Mountain Triangle, an area of land surrounded by Old Crompond Road to the south, the Bear Mountain Parkway Extension to the north and the Taconic State Parkway to the east.

Shelton's Inline Plastics: breaking the food-packaging mold for 50 years BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com
S
helton’s Inline Plastics may not be feeding the world — but it’s doing its part. “There are a lot of people out there and they all have to eat,” said Inline President and owner Tom Orkisz at its 42 Canal St. East corporate headquarters. “And more and more they’re looking for packaging that’s convenient and of good quality.” The firm, which was established by Orkisz’s father, Rudolph, and uncle Gene, in 1968, specializes in plastic food containers of various sizes — products with names like Surelock and Safe-T-Fresh that may not necessarily be familiar to most consumers, but are likely to have been used by anyone purchasing a package of produce, snacks or “grab-and-go” meals from their local store or deli. With tamper-resistant tear-strip locks and made of 100 percent recyclable plastic, Inline has been growing by about 13 percent annu-
ally in both volume and revenues, Orkisz said. The privately held company will manufacture and ship about 8.5 million cases — each case containing 200 to 300 pieces — this year, he said. Inline recently observed its 50th anniversary with an event attended by Mayor Mark Lauretti, state Sen. Kevin Kelly, Shelton Economic Development Corp. President Paul Grimmer and Shelton Board of Aldermen President John Anglace. Though it started as R&G Mold and Pattern Co. in Bridgeport — the name was changed in the 1980s — it’s been in Shelton since 1984. “They were working in the mold-making industry in Bridgeport,” Orkisz said of his father and uncle, Polish immigrants who quickly realized they could make more money by designing their own plastic wares on the side. “Their employer found out about it and didn’t care for it,” he grinned. “So he fired them. But that gave them the grit to go into business for themselves.” Although the Orkisz brothers started with cus-

tom work, by the early ’80s they came to realize that the future lay in the packaged food trade. “It was higher volume, more steady and sustainable for the foreseeable future,” Tom Orkisz said. Stew Leonard’s — still a customer today — was
Inline’s first customer in the grocery trade, he said, as it was searching for more secure packaging for its baked goods. “Stew basically challenged them to come up with something better.” What would become the Surelock line solved the problem, “and pushed them
even further into packaging for food.” Although the younger Orkisz went off to work as an engineer for several years upon graduating from college, “I grew up in the business. I ended up coming back to the company in the early ‘90s and got pretty involved in management and sales, learning the other roles at the company.” Following his father’s death in 1997 — Gene had died in the mid-’70s — Orkisz stayed and continued to grow the business. Today Inline employs about 750 people. They’re in Shelton and its research, development and engineering center is in Milford, and at manufacturing facilities are in Salt Lake City and McDonough, Georgia. “The costs of shipping from here eventually led us to open the others around the country,” Orkisz said. Opening an additional plant in the Southwest will likely take place over the next couple of years, he added. In the meantime, Orkisz said he expects to hire up to 100 people this year across the
company’s locations. Although Inline once had its own facility in its founders’ native Poland, it ended up divesting itself of ownership, although it still licenses its product there, Orkisz said. He allowed that another try at expanding into Europe could eventually be in the cards as well. “We’re proud of the fact that we’ve stayed independent and family owned for 50 years,” he remarked. “We view ourselves as a product leader — we’re not the cheapest out there, but our features mean our customers get a bigger bang for their buck. And we’ve grown organically, not through acquisition, by being an innovative company.” As for the next generation of Orkiszes, he said that his daughter Alicia will start in August as the firm’s general counsel. “She wants to learn the business,” he said, while his two sons “will have an opportunity here if they’re so inclined. You can’t force them.”
Dish Network sues Yonkers man for $2M in customer scam BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com
D
ish Network says a Yonkers man has posed as a company representative to trick customers into paying him for unnecessary services. Dish, a satellite pay-television provider based in Englewood, Colorado, sued Imtiyaz Siddiqi for $2 million in federal court in White Plains on May 17. Siddiqi orchestrated a telemarketing scheme, the complaint states, “for the purpose of extracting payments

from Dish’s subscribers.” Efforts to contact Siddiqi for a response failed. Dish claims that Siddiqi has been defrauding its customers since at least early 2016. He allegedly called subscribers using various telephone numbers from a variety of area codes that displayed the Dish name on caller ID screens. The lawsuit does not explain how Siddiqi identified Dish subscribers. He used aliases, such as “Richard Bates” or “Terry James,” the complaint states, and he also used agents to make calls on his behalf.

He allegedly said he was a Dish representative or a representative of Global Communications or Global Telecommunications, fictitious companies that he described as Dish affiliates or
authorized retailers. The scam, as described in the complaint, rested on three key steps. First, he had to persuade customers that if their equipment were not upgraded or
adjusted, at their expense, they would lose television programming. He instructed them to email questions to dishnetwork@consultant. com, “further conveying his false association with Dish.” Second, he had to trick Dish into dispatching a technician, the complaint states, “to impart an air of legitimacy to his scheme.” So he allegedly called the company while posing as subscribers asking for upgrades or equipment adjustments. Third, he would recontact subscribers “again and again demanding payment and threatening to shut off
their Dish services if payment was not made.” He instructed customers to send payments to a Yonkers post office box, according to the complaint, or pay by credit card or debit card. The scam worked hundreds of times, the complaint claims, and typically netted $150 per incident. In some cases, Dish installed new equipment. Sometimes, the subscriber terminated the contract. Dish is accusing Siddiqi of trademark infringement, unfair competition and false advertising, tortious interference and unfair competition.

onathan Otto, owner of recently opened The Rex Lobster & Pizza in Hartsdale, realizes that the pairing of lobster and pizza might sound slightly strange to some people. So, he has a simple request for his potential customers. “Come for the lobster and try the pizza,” he said. The restaurant’s lobster is sourced every 24 hours from Maine, is never frozen and is delivered from sea to plate in less than a day. “Really, the lobster is the star of the show,” he said. “I don’t think you can get better lobster in metro New York.” The eatery at 247 N. Central Ave. also offers a number of coalfired pizzas, from margherita to meat supreme. You can order a lobster roll, served on a split-top grilled bun. “We try to showcase the lobster as simply as possible,” Otto said. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can try both: a lobster a la vodka pizza pairs lobster with house vodka sauce, served with fontina cheese. “That’s a harder sell to people,” Otto admitted, though he added that aside from plain cheese, the lobster pizza is the eatery’s best-selling dish. The restaurant, which held its grand opening on May 17 in the former home of a RadioShack, was renovated to include a tin ceiling, wooden f loors, custom tile designs and a marble bar and countertops. “We wanted to create an ambiance that reflects the same quality as the food we serve,” Otto said. This is not the first business venture in Westchester County for Otto. He was formerly president of Rock Bottom Stores, a chain of 40 discount drug stores that included six stores in Westchester. In 1998, Otto sold Rock Bottom Stores to Duane Reade, now part of Walgreens. The Long Island resident is also founder and chairman of MetroCapital Realty, a real estate company he formed in 1999 that develops and manages shopping centers in the New York metropolitan and Palm Beach areas.

“I own a lot of shopping centers and I’m a former retailer and I love food, so this time around in the retail business, I wanted to do something with food,” he said. He opened the doors of The Rex Burger & Lobster in November 2016. “The food at the Rex is quintessential American food that Americans crave,” he said.
After finding the pairing of burgers and lobster successful, “we thought it was a creative thing to do with pizza” in Hartsdale, he said. Otto said that similar to his chain of drugstores, he always aimed to launch a chain of eateries. He hopes to open other restaurants in New Jersey and Manhattan in the future. The location along Central Avenue appealed to him both because of the area’s highly trafficked roads and its proximity to White Plains. “A big part of the pizza business and a big part of our other business is delivery,” he said, adding that the eatery is just a few minutes from the city’s downtown. The restaurateur said he may also look to open other restaurants in the county, though likely not anytime soon. “For now, I’m going to stick with just one (in Westchester),” he said. “If I were to open a second, I would also open on Central Avenue, but closer to Yonkers.”

ot long after RXR Realty broke ground on the Larkin Plaza development in Yonkers, adjacent building owners claim, more than the ground started to break. Excavation, earth removal, pile driving, steel erection and other construction activities, according to a lawsuit filed by Gateway Loft Associates and Alma Realty Corp., have “caused substantial physical damage to Gateway’s premises.” The building owners want the Westchester Supreme Court to order RXR to stop construction and prevent more damage. RXR spokesman Seth Pinsky acknowledged minor damage to a neighboring building during an early phase of construction. “We have worked collaboratively with the neighbor to shore up the building,” he said, “and no further damage has occurred.” Larkin Plaza is a massive, $200 million project in the heart of downtown Yonkers, between Main and Nepperhan streets and Warburton Avenue, next to the new Van der Donck Park and Saw Mill River esplanade. RXR, based in Uniondale, is building 17-story and 25-story buildings with 439 apartments and retail space, as well as two smaller buildings with retail and parking. The 17-story structure was topped off in November and occupancy is expected in early 2019. Gateway Loft and Alma Realty, based at the same address in Long Island City, own three, old four-story buildings at 35-39 Main St., with walk-up apartments and ground-level businesses such as La Bella Havana restaurant. RXR broke ground on Larkin Plaza in December 2016. The following February, Gateway and Alma notified RXR that their buildings had been damaged. The floor slab and foundation settled, they claim, a wall separated and cracked, exterior walls were cracked, the roof was damaged and the buildings settled and tilted. The owners say they recently gave RXR a consultant’s report detailing damages from Dec. 1, 2016 to Sept. 19, 2017. The complaint accuses RXR of negligence for failing to take reasonable steps to protect adjacent buildings. The plaintiffs are asking for $2 million in damages and an injunction to stop construction and to direct the developer to “immediately take steps to remedy the dangerous conditions and prevent future damages.” Pinsky said the lawsuit is part of a process of allocating liability. “Our insurance carrier will defend the lawsuit,” he said.

Westchester officials recommend utilities rethink reliance on mutual aid BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com
A
panel of Westchester elected officials said the county’s two electric companies need to lessen their reliance on mutual aid workers following storms, better communication with municipalities and abandon the use of robocalls to update customers on outages. Those were just a few of the recommendations in a 41-page report released May 21 by United Westchester, a group of 70 elected officials co-chaired by Westchester County Executive George Latimer and state Assemblyman David Buchwald. The group was formed to examine the performance of
Westchester County Executive George Latimer and members of United Westchester.
Consolidated Edison Inc. and NYSEG following two nor’easters in early March that knocked out power to more than 150,000 customers. In the days following the storm, Latimer called for resignations from top executives at both companies, frustrated with what he called

“failure on the streets of this county” in restoring power and communicating with customers. His stance included a video posted by the county of Latimer angrily dressing down Con Edison officials in a March 7 conference call, which he referenced in a press conference on May 21 announcing the report. “You saw the more-than-famous video, friends who haven’t seen me in thirty years saw it on TV, when I was upset about what I saw at the time, what I thought was inadequate response,” Latimer said. “But the overall gist of this report and of the response by elected officials … is not anger as much as it is anger that leads to action. We need to see change.” The 70 elected officials participating in United Westchester — ranging from mayors and supervisors to congressional representatives —

first met at the end of March. The group distributed surveys to more than 30 municipal leaders that covered 21 separate topics related to storm response. The report summarizes the issues raised in survey responses. The report took particular aim at the use of mutual aid utility employees called in from outside the region to help restoration efforts following major storms. Comments from officials compiled in the report praised the efforts of utility workers, but said both companies appeared understaffed. Mutual aid workers were not called quickly enough, the report said, with crews sometimes requiring days to arrive once called. In instances of regional storms, the report noted, customers were left waiting for mutual aid workers to come from the Midwest, Canada and the South. “The whole process has to be evaluated,” Latimer said. “How much are we relying on mutual aid to handle what amounts to be frequent instances, not the once-in-a-blue-moon instance we theorize is a process of this?” The report also questioned whether Con Edison and NYSEG had properly forecasted the storm and if either utility had been prepared for its worst possible scenario. United Westchester recommended the state’s Public Service Commission, Con Edison and NYSEG perform an analysis of their ability to forecast storm severity and how they prepare for those storms. Elected officials in each municipality also criticized the way utilities provided updates. The report recommended that both utilities invite municipal leaders to participate in prestorm conference calls. It also said the utilities need to keep updated contact information on all elected officials, organize calls by subregion rather than municipality and make sure utility employees are prepared to answer questions. The report also criticized customer robocalls, which it said often did more harm than good by spreading misinformation. That’s a problem Con Edison has acknowledged. The company filed its own report with the state examining its storm response. Con Edison acknowledged communications failures with customers, which it said were caused in part by predictive software meant to estimate outages that customers do not report. The system, according to its report, overestimated outages in some areas and provided inaccurate restoration estimates in others. United Westchester officials would like both companies to consider breaking away with robocalls altogether. “We found those calls were almost always inaccurate, they were general in nature, they did not accurately reflect what was happening on the ground,” Latimer said. “We understand there’s technology where you can mass-communicate, and it may in fact be that that type of mass communication is disinformation if it’s not accurate information.”

Yorktown—
the property have been in the works for nearly five years in a number of forms. Early plans by Mandalay Builders LLC in 2012 called for the development of a series of townhomes, while others included a 104-bed nursing home. Later plans featured a 96-unit senior living facility. In 2015, the developer aimed to construct a residential complex with 80 units of multifamily townhouses and 77,000 square feet of commercial space.

ings were constructed during the energy-efficient ’70s, with small windows to conserve energy.” Tenants are now looking for options with more natural light and that are close to mass transit — preferably within walking distance of trains, or near major highways, Pajolek said. “That’s morphed into the ‘live-work-play’ movement, which plays into the growing TAMI — technology, advertising, media and information — sector,” he said. In Norwalk, the former Tyco headquarters at 150 Glover Ave. is being converted into an edifice consisting of 235 rental units. Adjacent to the Towers campus in Norwalk, Stamfordbased developer Building and Land Technology (BLT) is building a mixed-use development that will feature more than 1,000 residential units, biking trails and substantial new infrastructure, said BLT Chief Operating Officer Ted Ferrarone. Ferrarone said that most of its Harbor Point developments on the Stamford waterfront have been adaptive reuses of old industrial properties. One of the latest is Harbor Landing, a mixed-use waterfront development that brings together the

opment plans since 2012, said that because of the more vertical layout of the new plan, the project will have less of a disturbance on the surrounding area. John Tegeder, Yorktown’s director of planning, said the newest plan “is quite different” than earlier proposals submitted by Mandalay Builders, “so it’s going to be looked at quite closely.” During his presentation to the planning board on May 7, Zelin said he was one of the investors in Mandalay Builders’ earlier proposals, though requests for additional comment from Zelin were unreturned at press time. Tegeder said that Mandalay Builders is still involved in the current project.
To make way for an eventual residential development, Mandalay Builders previously petitioned the town to rezone the proper-
ty from single-family residential. That zoning change ultimately occurred in 2015 and resulted in the rezoning of the top 16.9-acre portion
Stamford Landing office complex and the Davenport Landing boatyard and residential properties. The newly connected waterfront destination, across from Harbor Point and overlooking the Long Island Sound, will offer 200,000 square feet of waterfront office space, 218 residential rental units, two restaurants, a full-service boatyard operated by The Hinckley Co., a boardwalk, and a marina with about 120 available slips. “We’ve built 11 apartment buildings either through conversion or demolition and building from the ground up” in the area, he said. In addition, former office space that had been demolished and was known for decades as “the hole in the ground” in Stamford is now the site of construction of the two-building, 650-apartment Stamford Urby residential complex. The apartments will include studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom units. On the city’s south end, the Beacon at Harbor Point multifamily development took the place of extensive warehouse/ industrial space formerly used by Pitney Bowes. While much of the Stamford office-to-residential development has been concentrated on the waterfront and downtown,
Ferrarone said, “We’re starting to see more and more on ‘the ridges,’ like High Ridge. Corporations want to be near transportation, which contributes to demand for apartment housing that their workforce wants to be in.” Companies and residents alike are “definitely identifying Stamford as a place they want to be,” he said. Stamford has completely revitalized itself from the 9-to-5 town where “there was nothing to do in downtown, which was basically an area you didn’t necessarily want to be in after business hours,”’ said Sean Cahill, principal and managing director at Avison Young. “It’s very different today. The demand for amenities — either within an office or apartment building, or nearby — has played a part in what’s been a very positive evolution for the city.” As with most observers, Cahill is keeping an eye on the former UBS complex at 677 Washington Blvd. The 700,000-square-foot property has stood vacant since UBS relocated in 2016 across the street to 600 Washington and was finally sold late last year to Stamford Washington Investors LLC for $33 million. Among various
proposals under consideration are turning the structure into apartments, at least in part. What was once known as “The UBS building” is now “the 677 Washington building,” Cahill said. People “all want the same things: they want to be able to talk to other people and go downstairs, maybe there’s music, or next door to a bar,” Clayton H. Fowler, chairman and CEO of Spinnaker Real Estate Partners, said at a Westfair panel in April. “It’s important to have those recreational opportunities.” Spinnaker has completed more than 3,000 housing units in Westchester and Fairfield counties, Fowler said.

MARKET SNAPSHOTS
According to Cushman data, after recording a decrease of about 5,200 jobs in late 2017, Connecticut continues to increase its employment base, which it expects will eventually translate to positive absorption of available office space. Gains in the economy and improving employment point to a future office market with lower vacancy rates over the coming 24 months. Fairfield County leasing activity remained strong in the first quarter, producing 665,949 square feet of
of the property to multifamily residential, while the bottom 6.7-acre property was rezoned as commercial. Tegeder said there are roughly 10 structures on the property, including a number of single-family homes, that would need to be demolished to make way for the development. The proposed development site is west of another project that has been long in the works. At 3200 Crompond Road, construction crews are continuing to complete site work on the 25-acre property that will feature a Lowe’s home improvement center. The 124,000-square-foot Lowe’s is slated for opening in 2019. Breslin Realty
Development of Garden City broke ground on the roughly $70 million project in October of last year. Other nearby businesses include Hudson Valley Steakhouse, Chase Bank and the BJ’s shopping center and gas station. Ciarcia noted that though the proposed project would be somewhat “off the beaten path” from those nearby businesses along Route 202, he believes the development could be “essentially part of that corridor.” “The town is looking to make something special there,” Tegeder said, adding that the town hopes to transform the area into “a bit of a destination if possible.”
leasing velocity, 5.8 percent higher than one year ago. The South Central submarket led county demand in the first quarter, registering 228,014 square feet of leasing activity. FactSet’s lease for 176,104 square feet at 45 Glover Ave. in Norwalk was the largest signed in the first quarter, accounting for 77.2 percent of the total leasing activity in South Central submarket. BLT, which owns the 264,500-squarefoot Class A office building, said that FactSet’s lease will bring the property to 100 percent capacity. Despite increases in leasing activity, overall vacancy throughout Fairfield County increased 1.1 percent year-over-year to 24.2 percent, according to Cushman. The largest year-over-year uptick in vacancy occurred in the Stamford noncentral business district (CBD) submarket, increasing by 3.4 percent to 31.6 percent. The increase in overall vacancy was attributed to GE Energy placing 275,000 square feet of sublease supply on the market at 800 Long Ridge Road. Overall, net absorption contracted in the first quarter, ending at negative 591,783 square feet. With more space on the market, overall aver-
age asking rents contracted $1.62 per square foot to $32.55, Cushman reported. The Stamford non-CBD submarket recorded the largest drop in pricing over the last 12 months, falling $3.76 per square feet to $29.87. “Increasing household formation and healthy demand for office space are projected for the balance of the year,” Cushman reported. “Although Fairfield County has been struck by large space dispositions over the last 12 to 24 months, Fairfield County’s tenant composition appears to be becoming more diversified, which may lead to less volatile markets going forward.” Meanwhile, CBRE’s first-quarter Westchester County office market report found the county recorded about 205,000 square feet of total leasing activity during the first quarter — up from the previous two quarters, but still the weakest leasing start to a year since 2009. Cushman put the overall vacancy rate at 24.6 percent, up from 20.6 percent in the first quarter in 2017. “Despite the significant rise in vacancy,” it said, “demand is projected to remain stable throughout the year, while vacancy is expected to decrease, most notably in more urban submarkets.”

His approach is a holistic strategy. “You treat the whole body, you just don’t treat the hip replacement,” he said. “You want to work on balance, you work on cardiovascular that encourages healing — you get them on a bike, get them walking, encouraging them to be more active. If we get somebody to be pain free but they’re sitting on a couch all day, we haven’t succeeded.” Melchionno and his partners have mostly relied on referrals from local doctors for their initial stream of patients. They are using social media and direct mail to create further awareness of their practice. They plan to ultimately expand Elevate Physical Therapy to have multiple sites across Fairfield County, averaging one new office per year. As for the aforementioned desk-induced injuries, Melchionno advised a relatively easy strategy to encourage better posture in the workplace. “If you are at a desk all day and as long as it’s not annoying to the man or woman next to you, set a timer so it beeps every 15 minutes,” he said. “And when it beeps, all you do is sit up for 30 seconds. That’s going become a minute and then two minutes. It all starts with the patient.”

nowadays,” he observed. “A lot of kids are sticking to one sport. There’s a lot of pretty good research out there (showing that) if you switch sports every season, you are less likely to be injured because you’re giving your muscles a chance to rest.” Melchionno acknowledged studies showing a greater level of physical inactivity among teens and pre-teens, and he warned they face potential problems once they get off their backsides and get their bodies into motion. “Yes, when they are eight, nine or 12, they can sit with poor postures and they have such great healing properties that they can get by with that,” he continued. “But when they get older, that’s when it’s showing. We see a ton of kids with horrible posture, compared to back in the day when they were more active. But if they have horrible posture and they are sitting on the couch all day, they are probably not going develop too much pain because they’re not stressing those areas, compared to the boy or girl who sits with poor posture and then goes to throw a baseball for two hours (and who is) going to probably be sore.” At the other end of the age spectrum, Melchionno is cognizant of the emotional trauma that often accompa-

n the white-collar world, a desk jockey who spends too many hours seated in a workspace often finds a few aches and pains — and, sometimes, much worse — when the time comes to sit up straight, stand and move around. And that’s where Steve Melchionno comes in. “The major issue with sitting at a desk all day is that you get really stiff in your thoracic spine, the middle of your back,” explained Melchionno, co-founder and co-owner of the start-up business Elevate Physical Therapy. “So, when the middle of your back doesn’t work, what overworks? Either your neck or your lower back when you’re moving around the house, because they are more mobile than your thoracic spine. And that leads to neck problems and back problems.” Melchionno teamed with Greg Besson and Pamela Fioretti in creating Elevate Physical Therapy. The trio have a combined 30-plus years of experience in physical therapy. The practice is set up in a ground-floor space in a corporate office building at 19 Old Kings Highway South in Darien. The building’s owner needed to get a variance from the town to enable a medical-related practice to move in. The new company specializes in outpatient orthopedics, with a patient line-up that Melchionno described as “anyone from weekend warriors to someone with neck pains from being at a desk too long to high school athletes that are having some kind of musculoskeletal pain.” The latter category comprises a large portion of Melchionno’s patient base; shoulder and knee issues are not uncommon among teens. “These kids train hard

Cybersecurity Trends for 2018
I’ve put together some of the leading Cybersecurity trends that have crossed my path across SMB’s throughout Westchester and Fairfield counties. Here are leading tactics small to medium size businesses are implementing to protect their organizations.
ucts attacks like this have been successfully thwarted.
DARKWEB MONITORING
SECURITY AWARENESS More and more I’m seeing SMB’s utilize Security Awareness Training platforms to address their weakest link, the user. Teaching them about data security and what an email attack looks like is very inexpensive and an effective way of increasing your security posture.
WEB GATEWAY SECURITY Internet security is a race against time. Cloud based security detects web and email threats as they emerge on the internet and blocks them on networks. This has made web surfing a bit safer.
complexity. This removes the burden from the user and increases security.
Knowing in real-time what passwords and accounts have been posted on the Darkweb has been allowing SMB’s to be proactive in preventing a data breach. Routine darkweb scans afford companies the opportunity to take action before things get out of hand.
BACKUP & DISASTER RECOVERY EMPLOYEE IDENTITY PROTECTION Pro-active employers are looking for methods to protect their employees at home. The home network can be a gateway to the corporation. Offering various services to staff like identity protection, network security products and security awareness training are being extended to employees.
During Q1 2018, I have seen a big push for better backup and disaster recovery. Affordable appliances along with bundled cloud backup having been satisfying the need for improved backup and compliance. Typically offering more restore points and the ability to work from the cloud in the event there is a disaster at your site. Stakeholders have been embracing this sense of security.
ENHANCED EMAIL SECURITY PASSWORD MANAGEMENT Companies are thinking that using password management tools are a good idea. A password manager will maintain different passwords for every application with the required

Teatown preserve receives 245 acres it was founded upon BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com
W
hether as a “partner,” “big brother” or “incubator,” the Brooklyn Botanic Garden was essential to the creation of northern Westchester’s Teatown Lake Reservation Nature Preserve, today the largest privately owned preserve in Westchester County. Those were all terms used by officials from both organizations in a ceremony May 18. Leaders of the Botanic Garden and Teatown gathered on a sunny Friday afternoon to celebrate the history of that relationship — and its legal end. Almost 40 years ago, Brooklyn Botanic Garden helped launch Teatown and has held about 245 acres of land within the preserve for more than a half-century. Seated at a table within part of Brooklyn Botanic’s Teatown land, botanic garden officials signed off on paperwork to deed that land to the Teatown organization. Kevin Carter, the executive director of Teatown, said that without the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, the organization he now runs wouldn’t exist. Although the preserve now encompasses about 1,000 acres, the land held by the botanic garden is described as Teatown’s heart. It includes Teatown’s offices, education center, museum and the lake itself. “Today’s transfer of title in many ways is the capstone in this unique, nearly six-decade relationship,” Carter said. The title transfer also ensures the property will be protected from development through a conservation easement held by the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. How a botanical garden in Brooklyn wound up having 245 acres of mostly wooded land in Westchester County is a story that dates back to 1923. That’s when Gerard Swope Sr., the chairman of General Electric, bought the estate in Yorktown, known at the time as “The Croft.” He and his family built a network of horse trails that today guide hikers along the property. A year after his purchase, he dammed a brook running through the property and flooded a low-lying meadow, creating the 42-acre body of water known as Teatown Lake. Swope died in 1957 and left the property to his children, who wanted to see it preserved. The Swopes were introduced to representatives of the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, which operated a research station nearby at Kitchawan Preserve. The two sides came to an agreement in 1963: The Swopes signed over the land, and in exchange, the Brooklyn Botanic Garden promised to preserve it and launch educational programming. Eight years later, Teatown was officially established as an independent nature preserve with a board of 21 community members. By 1980, Teatown started operating independent of Brooklyn Botanic Garden and signed a 99-year lease for the property. Geoff Thompson, a former board chair of Teatown,
said Teatown offered a symbolic jug of maple syrup as part of the lease agreement. Teatown has since acquired or took management of more than 800 additional acres across Yorktown, Cortlandt and New Castle. The preserve has 15 miles of trails that attracted 10,000 visitors last year and offers educational programs it estimates reach 20,000 adults and children each year. TWB Frank Webersthose educational Carter highlighted WCBJas the most important aspect of programs 7.375”work, w x which 7.125”he h said is now protectTeatown’s 4-26-18 ed through the conservation easement. “Education is what we do, it’s our lifeblood,” he said. “The foundational idea that when someone is outdoors and connects with nature, they develop that empathy, they develop the feeling of wanting to care for something.”
As if to prove the point, a couple of young hikers wandered behind the podium as he spoke, fresh off a hike around the lake. A number of factors drove Brooklyn Botanic Garden to hand off the land. First, the garden itself decided in the 1980s to focus on its Brooklyn campus and programs. This land was the last of its presence in Westchester. But more than that, Brooklyn Botanic Garden President Scot Medbury said Teatown’s success made the botanic garden confident the organization could carry out the Swope’s vision on its own. “When we leased the land, Teatown was young enough that we weren’t really sure how strong they would become,” Medbury told the Business Journal following the event. “We’ve watched them grow into more than 1,000 acres and seen the breadth of their programs. …I’ve
watched them just get stronger and stronger. So we thought, why not just give to them? We have every confidence they’ll do the right thing by it.” Even without the land, Medbury said the two organizations will remain partners. He serves on an advisory board for Teatown and said the two organizations can work together on advocating for living museums and in developing educational programming. The process to actually hand over the land required negotiations on and off for more than a decade. Nancy Felcher, vice chair of Teatown’s board, joked that while all Teatown officials were happy to receive 245 acres of land, she was also glad to be rid of “245 tons of documents off my desk.” “This is not a gift for us, of course,” she added, “but for all the people who follow.”

Online Portal to Help Spur Innovation I
n a bold initiative designed to fill a need for comprehensive, in-depth data on Westchester County, The Business Council of Westchester recently launched the BCW Data Exchange.
The free, user-friendly, online portal provides businesses, nonprofits and the public with key data about Westchester all in one place. Demographics, data on workforce, housing, education, local governments, transportation, infrastructure, real estate trends, consumer spending, municipal services and other vital data is available and updated on a regular basis. Speaking at news conference held May 8 at BCW’s offices to launch the new service, BCW President and CEO Marsha Gordon said, “Data is knowledge and knowledge is power. We believe the BCW Data Exchange is a critical resource that will allow Westchester County to win in a very competitive economic climate locally, nationally and globally.’’ She added, “We are on the cusp of serious development and growth, and the BCW Data Exchange will help spur the creative thinking and innovation we need to take that growth to the next level. It will also provide the critical

insights that our business organizations, educational institutions, non-profits and government leaders need to make the best, most informed decisions.”
The BCW Data Exchange will have the most up-to-date information on a wide variety of topics and issues impacting business in the county. The research was conducted by Hudson Valley Pattern for Progress, a not-for-profit policy, planning, advocacy and research organization. Customized reports will be available for those looking for a deeper dive into the data. The idea of a comprehensive online data resource to help promote economic development in Westchester is the result of more than two years of strategic planning by the BCW Board of Directors. Board Member Heidi Davidson, who chaired the committee, said that the new service would fill a real need in the business community. “We live in a world where having and understanding data is everything,’’ said Davidson, co-founder of Galvanize Worldwide. “The comprehensive data available through the BCW Data Exchange will fuel Westchester’s economic development efforts,” she added.

In addition to the data, the portal will offer a rotating blog with the perspectives of influencers in the community. Upcoming blogs will feature Westchester County Executive George Latimer and the county’s city mayors who will discuss major revitalization projects currently underway in Westchester’s urban centers among other topics.

Developer breaks ground on $100M St. Regis Residence in Rye BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com
W
ork began May 17 in Rye on the latest efforts in Westchester County to replace struggling office parks with residential buildings. This project comes from Alfred Weissman Real Estate LLC, which broke ground on a $100 million project that will build 95 luxury senior condominiums at 120 Old Post Road, where the landlord previously owned and operated a three-story, 75,000-square-foot office building. The residences will be branded under the St. Regis title, the high-end Marriott brand with more than 40 hotels in 19 countries. The development, The St. Regis Residence Rye, will be the first St. Regis residence community not affiliated with a hotel. The design, from Perkins Eastman, places the 95 units among five buildings on the 7-acre site, each either three or four stories. In those buildings, for sale will be 14 one-bedroom condos, 44 two-bedroom, 31 three-bedroom and 6 four-bedroom condominiums. As per the city’s approvals on the project at least one resident in each condo must be 55 or older. No residents under 18 can reside there full time. Celebrating the groundbreaking along with Alfred Weissman Real Estate and elected officials were representatives from RXR Realty and Marriott International. RXR Realty is providing financing for the project. Company CEO Scott Rechler said the project’s vision for the property fits with RXR’s “strategy to invest in high quality housing in New York City’s suburbs that satisfies the noticeable shift in the baby boomer and senior housing preferences.” Alfred Weissman’s affiliate company, Old Post Road Associates, is using the St. Regis title under license from Marriott, with no ownership stake from Marriott. Nonetheless, Marriott Vice President of Global Residential Operations John Hearns said the company looks forward to “managing The St. Regis Residences Rye and delivering the signature services of the St. Regis brand.” As the St. Regis title might imply, the development team is promising a bounty of luxury amenities: gated entrances; manicured gardens and courtyards; walking paths; heated underground parking with 314 spaces; an indoor pool and wellness complex and lounge and entertainment spaces. Alfred Weissman bought the property and the 1960s office building that occupied it for $1.4 million in 1997. The property once served as headquarters for Mobius Management Systems Inc., a records management company. In 2007, the company was bought by Floridabased Allen Systems Group Inc., which closed the Rye office. By 2012, the building had just one tenant: Alfred Weissman Real Estate’s headquarters. The company now lists a mailing address at the RPW Group’s 440 Mamaroneck Ave. building in Harrison.

That year, the company came to the city with plans to build a hotel on the property, but those were eventually withdrawn amid backlash from Rye residents. A hospitality focused arm of Alfred Weissman Real Estate has developed hotels in Binghamton, Connecticut and Yonkers, where the company opened a 150room Hampton Inn and Suites at 555 Tuckahoe Road in 2016. The company came back to the Rye officials with the senior condominium concept for the property in 2015, promising a project that filled the city’s need for active adult housing. The city approved the plans in 2016. The developers expect to finish construction late next year or early 2020. Sales of the residences will begin in the fall, handled by Manhattan advisory firm The Marketing Directors.

ASK ANDI By Andi Gray
Prioritizing at the owner level I have a partner who can’t prioritize. He works on whatever happens to be in front of him no matter how inconsequential and keeps at it even if he’s having trouble with the task, becomes frustrated, gets stuck and stays stuck. How can I help him get unstuck so he can work on things that are top priority? For that matter, what should be at the top of the priority list? THOUGHTS OF THE DAY: There are only so many hours in the day at work; your partner needs to make each one count. Help him learn to make the most of individual differences. Divide up the work. Set aside time to think and reflect. When in doubt, look at the job description. As small-business owners, you and your partner
face numerous demands. For business owners it’s not about how many tasks get checked off during the day. Rather it’s about how well the business is working overall. Think of the owner’s job as performing as orchestra director. Be aware of how well all the individual performers are playing their parts. Know when a particular player
Andi Gray
needs more attention. Identify when to ask a player to speed up or slow down, to play more forcefully or quiet down. Some people are doers, some are thinkers. Each owner has a strength to contribute to the overall success of the business. If you have a partner who is very good at following a task or project to completion, take advan-
tage of that. Just make sure someone else is attending to the quality of the overall performance. Set up meetings to discuss how the business is performing overall and to find out how your partner is doing with his task list. One of the biggest obstacles to being effective is confusing “immediate” and “important” with “worthwhile.” For every task in front of you ask: “Will this be a game changer for the business?” The stronger “yes” answer you get, the more likely it is that you should make it an owner’s top priority. At the top of the owner’s priority list should be growth and profitability. Both stem first from sales and marketing quality and quantity. So those should be the parts of the orchestra on which all of the owners focus extra attention, directly or indirectly. You and your partner should take a look at daily and weekly rhythms. Do you think better first thing in the morning, midday or at the end of the day? When are you more
likely to have “aha” moments? When do things quiet down enough that you can close your door, step away from the immediate demands of the business and take time to assess and plan how things are going long term? Block time for reflection on your schedule and ask everyone around you to respect that time block, even if it looks like you’re doing nothing but sitting quietly waiting for the next big thing to come along. The beauty of having partners is there’s more than one owner to carry the workload of overseeing the business. Each owner brings some kind of expertise to the table. Play to each partner’s strengths by picking topic areas for each to focus on. Think in broad terms, overseeing the major disciplines of the business: sales, finance, marketing, operations, human resources, technology, leadership development and any other specific areas. Create a job description for each partner in the business, just as you would for
each employee. Identify the strengths of each partner and assign responsibilities that make the most of what each partner is naturally capable of. Periodically review how each partner is performing and whether there’s a need for assistance. The beauty of being owners is you get to assign tasks and hire support staff. Use that privilege to your advantage by agreeing to delegate to others when things get stuck. LOOKING FOR A GOOD BOOK?

Survey: New York, Connecticut among worst in hospital safety BY ALEESIA FORNI aforni@westfairinc.com
FOR YOUR NEXT BUSINESS MEETING OR CORPORATE PARTY
Customizedideo graphics anitdievs capabil
N
ew York and Connecticut ranked among the worst states in the nation in terms of hospital safety, according to a recent survey. According to the Leapfrog Hospital Survey covering the 50 states plus the District of Columbia, New York ranked 48th in the nation, coming in ahead of Alaska, Delaware and North Dakota which were tied for last in 49th place. New York’s ranking at 48 marks a drop from last year’s rank of 47th in the country. Connecticut fared similarly, ranking 46th in the nation. The state fell 16 spots from its 2017 ranking of 30th. As part of the survey, Leapfrog assigned letter grades to hospitals based on their record of patient safety. States were then ranked based on the number of “A” hospitals they have compared with the total number of graded hospitals. Hospital providers in Westchester and Fairfield counties were given mixed grades. While no hospitals in Westchester earned an A, Northern Westchester Hospital was one of two in the county to receive a B grade. Leapfrog noted that the hospital had a lower number of MRSA infections than
expected given its number of patients. However, the hospital had a higher number of infections in the urinary tract and the blood than expected given its patient count. The hospital’s grade remained flat from its fall rating, which fell from a consistent A grade it had received since 2016. White Plains Hospital was also awarded a B and reported lower than expected numbers of MRSA, blood and urinary tract infections. The hospital’s marks improved from last year’s grade of a C. Elsewhere, Phelps Memorial Hospital in Sleepy Hollow, Westchester Medical Center in Valhalla, Montefiore New Rochelle Hospital, New York-Presbyterian Hudson Valley Hospital in Cortlandt Manor and New York-Presbyterian Lawrence Hospital were each awarded a C, as were St. John’s Riverside Hospital in Yonkers and the St. John’s Riverside Hospital Dobbs Ferry Pavilion. Unity Hospital in Rochester, Northern Dutchess Hospital in Rhinebeck, HealthAlliance of the Hudson Valley-Broadway Campus in Kingston and MidHudson Regional Hospital of Westchester Medical Center in Poughkeepsie each earned a C grade. In Fairfield County, Stamford Health earned a B rating, while Bridgeport Hospital, Danbury Hospital,

Gov. Malloy signs pay equity bill into law
onnecticut Gov. Dannel P. Malloy has signed legislation designed to prevent wage discrimination and close the pay gaps based on gender and race. The legislation, formally known as An Act Concerning Pay Equity, passed the State House of Representatives by 142-4 in April and the Senate by 35-1 earlier this month. Under the new law, employ-
ers cannot directly ask an employee about previous salary history and employers cannot forbid an employee from inquiring about the wages of employees within the same company or organization. Supporters of the bill claim that it will help women close the wage disparity gap by focusing on skills and qualifications rather than what they
earned in previous jobs, while Malloy stressed the bill also serves as a vehicle to prevent wage inequity based on race. “Our work to make sure that women and people of color are paid equally for their work must continue every year in the legislature and every day as we work toward a culture of equality.” — Phil Hall

Westfair Communications recognizes Westchester and Fairfield’s top wealth advisers BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com
S
ome of the top wealth advisers in Westchester and Fairfield counties were honored May 17 at an event presented by Westfair Communications, the publisher of the Westchester County Business Journal and Fairfield County Business Journal and WAG magazine. About 120 people gathered in a $13 million mansion for Westfair’s first “Top Wealth Advisors,” which recognized more than 40 advisers who either work or reside within the two counties. The event was hosted at a model home for Greystone on Hudson, a collection of 21 multimil-
lion-dollar estates under development in Tarrytown by The Greystone Mansion Group, an affiliate of R3 Investment Partners. After a welcome speech from Greystone President Andy Todd, the event opened with a presentation from Andrew Maloney, a senior vice president at Pacific Investment Management Co. (PIMCO). Maloney promised to summarize a 60-page deck on the state of the economy within a two-minute speech and managed to stay within that time frame. First, he noted that the U.S. economy is now in its 10th year of economic expansion following one of the worst financial crises in its history. “Nine years later, here we are, growing,” Maloney said,

citing an employment rate below 4 percent. “All this quantitative easing, this expansion of the balance sheet the government undertook has worked,” Maloney said. “It’s allowed people, and forced people, to do what they should be doing, which is investing in the economy. Buying stocks, buying bonds, buying real estate, getting back to work.” But Maloney noted there are signs of financial conditions tightening up. “I think we all agree in the room that they’re tighter today than they were 18 or 24 months ago,” he said. “The Federal Reserve is raising interest rates, we’re removing some of that quantitative easing, we’re getting a little tighter.”

Maloney described this as late cycle, with a flattening yield curve, increasing energy prices and inflation starting to come back. “We’re just talking about an environment where you want to offer caution to your clients, it’s not time to be a hero,” Maloney said. “Bond prices are going down, stock prices are finally volatile again.” While the economy continues to “chug along,” Maloney told advisers in the room they should be cautious for 18 to 24 months from now, when “we expect to see a little bit of a softening in the economy.” And in a time like that, Maloney said, “your clients will need your advice more than ever.” “You guys and you gals
in the room are the ones that will continue to keep people invested and do what you do very well,” he said, “which is to manage that client and help that client to get to where they need to be to achieve their long-term financial goals.” The 42 honored wealth advisers gave brief speeches, each mostly focusing on how they entered the field, their joy in working with clients and excitement at seeing their colleagues gathered in one place. Sharon M. Cunningham, senior vice president with The Cunningham Group within Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, used her acceptance speech to encourage more women to enter the field. “This financial services is an amazing industry, but it’s especially amazing for women who want a career outside the home and be able to have flexibility with their time and still make a contribution to our clients,” Cunningham said. “So for those of us in the room, and there’s still not enough of us in the room who are women, I would just say to you all, if you have college students, talk to them about the work that we do.” Frank Rogers, who accepted the award on behalf of his Merrill Lynch Wealth Management colleague Michael Moskowitz, noted how much the industry had changed over two decades. “Twenty years ago you were a stock broker, you knew stocks and maybe a few bonds,” said Rogers. “Now, we’re managing entire balance sheets, from the kids’ education, to the mortgage, estate planning, insurance, all of these things. It’s been such a tough, tough road. Compliance, regulation all these different things we have up against every single day.” “It’s one of the greatest businesses to be in, it’s one of the toughest businesses to succeed in,” he said. The event was sponsored by Shreve, Crump & Low, Vitesse Worldwide, Dr. George C. Shapiro and Gilda Bonanno LLC.

Special Report
The evolving face of the bank board of directors BY PHIL HALL phall@westfairinc.com
I
n the aftermath of the 2008 recession, the banking industry underwent dramatic changes at multiple levels. This has created new and significant challenges for the boards of directors serving this industry. “Today’s boards are under more pressure than ever before,” said Christopher Gruseke, president and CEO at New Canaanheadquartered Bankwell. “It is management’s job to run the institution, but it is the board’s responsibility to make sure, on behalf of the shareholders, that management does its job. It’s not a small task to be bank director.” “Banks are under increased scrutiny,” said Susan O’Donnell, partner at consultancy Meridian Compensation Partners in Newton, Massachusetts. “That aspect of the director’s role is understood and known. Responsibility evolved and increased over the years. In addition to the risk role, banks need to make sure their directors have skills and experience to evolve, say with cyber risk and tech and AI issues. Banking changes and so must leadership.” Lloyd G. Gibson, dean of the Ernest C. Trefz School of Business at the University of Bridgeport, noted that today’s banking industry is not having problems attracting board members. “Some people are very comfortable to be recruited with the risks associated with directorship,” he said, noting that turnover on most boards is infrequent. “Once on the board, members tend to stay on, not unlike members of Congress.”
Typical of a long-serving board is First County Bank. “We have a very low board turnover,” stated Reyno A. Giallongo Jr., chairman and CEO of the Stamford-based bank. “We only added a couple board members in the last few years.” Many banks prefer not to set limits for their board members’ presence. “We have no maximum age limit and we don’t say that you can only serve X-number of years,” said Joseph D. Roberto, chairman, CEO and president at PCSB Bank in Yorktown Heights, adding that shareholders who believed the board needs new faces

can vote off the long-serving directors in favor of new candidates. “There are some benefits to stability in this industry,” O’Donnell said. “It takes a while to understand the business. You don’t see that when you come on for several years and then move off.”
However, Waterburyheadquartered Webster Bank sets a 10-year term limit for directors and a cut off for service at 75 years of age. “It’s not an age limit, it’s a director guideline,” explained James C. Smith, Webster Bank chairman, stating this policy enables the board to
“refresh and replenish itself as it goes along.” Once a director is on a board, the responsibilities quickly become considerable. “Our monthly board meetings last three hours, and you need at least three hours to prepare for each meeting,” said Giallongo. “A board member has to be a person with a flexible schedule who is either self-employed or has a boss who does not mind having them out of the office for seven-toeight hours a month.” And within the board structure, there are diverse committees where directors work on specific issues. “Our bank has committees with-

in the board focused areas including loans, audits and investments,” said Roberto, noting that committee participation is based on the members’ skill-sets. “We need to make sure that we devise the committees based on the strength of board members.” And thanks to digital technology, board members are finding themselves on call at all hours. Nicholas Coriano, founding partner and CEO at the Bridgeportbased investment relations consultancy Cervitude Inc., observed that today’s directors are continuously updated through emails and text messaging. “Management needs to make sure there is continuous communications with their board, otherwise everyone is not on the same page,” he said. Nor are the communications between management and the board expected to be a one-way endeavor. “Ours is expected to be more hands on,” said Judith Corprew, executive vice president for compliance and risk at Stamford-based Patriot Bank. “Our regulators want to see a board that is very well involved. The board is important to management team — and you don’t get that kind of understanding with a high turnover.” At First County Bank, Giallongo said that his board serves as the proverbial eyes and ears of the institution by reporting on products being used at other financial institutions that could potentially become part of the First County product line-up. “They also bring up possible support for a local nonprofit that we may or may not have known or recommend a new business or market for us to pursue,” » » SPECIAL REPORT MAY 28, 2018

Special Report—
he remarked. Over the past several years, financial institutions have placed a greater emphasis on moving away from the stereotype of boards consisting solely of older white men and becoming more inclusive of the wider society. “We want to have a diverse board and we do have a diverse board,” said David Lucas, president and CEO at Stamford Federal Credit Union. “Diversity is very important — we talk about it all the time.” “Customer bases are more diverse and a bank may want its board to reflect the customer base, though it may not need to
“Millennials don’t ever want to walk into a bank,” Lane said with a laugh, also pointing out that not many millennials have the business experience and connectivity that would benefit a board’s operations. But that doesn’t mean that millennials will not get their shot at bank board membership. “Most banks have advisory boards,” Lane said, referring to a separate function that often serves as a training ground for future board members. “This way, management gets to know their skill sets and weaknesses so in a few years they can get ready for election to the board.”
be an exact match,” said the University of Bridgeport’s Lloyd G. Gibson. Philip J. Lane, associate professor of economics at Fairfield University, pointed out that diversity at the board level should go beyond race and gender considerations to include a diverse mix of opinions. “I want to have people smarter than me and think different from me, and who can raise questions that I had not considered,” he stated. “I don’t want all the people to think like me. I want very different opinions, with ideas turning about that will help us think stronger.” One area where bank board diversity has rarely touched is the inclusion of millennials among the board members.

RBS cuts more jobs
dd another six to the over 750 people who have been laid off by Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) in Stamford over the past three-plus years. RBS has informed the Connecticut Labor Department that the latest layoffs will take place on July 17. Earlier this month, the bank had announced it was cutting nearly 800 jobs and closing 162 branches in England and Wales. Those cuts follow the closure of 259 branches in December, which resulted in 680 job losses. Together with Britain’s largest mortgage lender Lloyds Banking Group, the two institutions have cut around 3,600 jobs since December in an effort to reduce costs and address the challenges posed by financial technology firms and online and telephone banking.

atriot National Bancorp Inc. has completed its acquisition of Prime Bank, adding a second branch in New Haven County and bringing its total branch and ITM kiosk count to 11 and total assets to $928 million, on a pro forma basis as of March 31. As of that date, Prime had approximately $65 million in total assets. Stamford-based Patriot said it remains on track to surpass its $1 billion milestone in total assets in the second half of this year. In February, Patriot announced its now-pending acquisition of Los Angelesbased Hana Small Business Lending. In 2017, Hana SBL was the third most active nonbank SBA lender in the nation by origination volume. Upon the closing of that acquisition, Patriot said it will become one of the nation’s leading SBA 7(a) lenders. That same month, in February, Patriot National Bancorp announced record performance of $7.02 million in pre-tax earnings and $4.47 million in net income for the year ending Dec. 31, a 115 percent increase over the prior year. In Fairfield County, Patriot Bank operates branches in Darien, Fairfield, Greenwich, Norwalk, Stamford, Trumbull and Westport. In Westchester County, Patriot has branches in Bedford and Scarsdale. — Kevin Zimmerman

ARC RECOGNIZES BUSINESSES AND EMPLOYEES
Darren Walker and Kyes Stevens
GRADS ENCOURAGED TO ‘PAY FORWARD’
Cheers and confetti fill the air during the Pace graduation ceremony.
PACE GRADUATES URGED TO CONFRONT FAILURE Author James McBride, whose best-seller, “The Color of Water: A Black Man’s Tribute to His White Mother,” is read in schools across America, spoke to the Pace University graduating class of more than 700 in ceremonies held at the university’s Pleasantville campus. The university presented McBride with a degree of Doctor of Humane Letters for his “inspirational literary excellence, searching and insightful examinations of American society, and dedication to educating the next generation through his writing and teaching.” McBride told the graduates, “When you fail at something, come back and hit it again! You already know how to succeed. What you need to do now is learn how to fail.” Sarah Daria Rahni urged her fellow graduates to “embrace each moment and make it meaningful.” Pace University President Marvin Krislov, presiding over his first commencement at Pace, urged the graduates to “be curious and be confident. Be kind and be supportive. Be a good community member. Stay connected to one another. Celebrate each other’s success and support each other through challenges.” David Swope was posthumously awarded an honorary degree. Swope, who died earlier this year, was deeply involved with community organizations such as being chairman of the Jacob Burns Film Center and serving on the boards of the Ossining Children’s Center, Phelps Memorial Hospital and Westchester Community College.
Sarah Lawrence graduates were reminded that success is never achieved without the support of others and were encouraged to “pay forward” the support they’ve received. The messages were from Ford Foundation President Darren Walker, who addressed 315 undergraduates on May 18, and Kyes Stevens, founder and director of the Alabama Prison Arts + Education Project, who addressed 129 master’s degree candidates on the 17th. Walker recalled his childhood in a rural southern town where his mother had the foresight to enroll him in the first class of Head Start in 1965. “There’s a story that we Americans like to tell ourselves: the story of the self-made man,” said Walker. “It’s the story of the entrepreneur who founds a startup in his garage – or the minimum-wage worker who pulls himself up by his bootstraps. But graduates: that story is pure fiction.” He added, “I share this because it’s often easy to forget that our success is not only our own.” During the commencement for graduate students, Stevens talked about her work in bringing education and equity to those in prison. Stevens, a Sarah Lawrence alumna, also rejected the idea that success could be achieved in a vacuum without the support of others. “I am full of gratitude for all the people along the way who invested in me. A simple reminder that we do not get anywhere all on our own. That whole bootstrap logic is broken.” College President Cristle Collins Judd told the graduates, “You are surrounded by people whose lives have shaped yours and with whom you have shared a very special experience, place and philosophy of education.”
POLICE HONORED
HOSPICE TO HOST GOLF FUNDRAISER Hospice of Westchester will host its 16th annual Golf Invitational at Westchester Hills Golf Club in White Plains on June 19. The day will feature 18 holes of golf, a barbecue on the ninth hole, a cocktail reception, dinner and awards ceremony, as well as a silent auction and raffles. “The Golf Invitational is one of our most anticipated events throughout the year, and we are thankful for the support we receive from the Westchester community,” said Mary K.

The Arc Westchester hosted its 30th Annual Employer Recognition Breakfast at The DoubleTree in Tarrytown. The event celebrated the organization’s 250 business and community partners throughout the county who employ disabled persons supported by Arc. Richard P. Swierat, retiring as executive director, reported Arc “continues to maintain an employment rate for individuals with developmental disabilities of over 60 percent versus 33 percent nationwide.” Swierat will be succeeded by Tibisay (Tibi) Guzmán effective June 15. Guzmán currently serves as associate executive director and COO. The event’s top honor, the Share of Voice Award, was presented to Regeneron, which employs eight individuals with developmental disabilities. Sally Paull, senior vice president, human resources, said “To fulfill Regeneron’s mission, we need to create an inclusive environment, where the value of diversity can be fully realized – a value where each and every employee is able to make a meaningful contribution.” The Advocate Award went to Shanna Krizan of the Country Children’s Center. The Bridge to Employment Award was presented to Let’s Play It Forward. The Continuing Partner Award went to Lexington Square Café. The Distinguished Partner Award honoree was Digiscribe. The By the Way Bakery received the New Business Partner Award. The Promoting Independence Award went to Westchester Circus Arts. The Anthony Cannata Memorial Employee Awards were given Daniel Sturr, who works at Regeneron and is Guzmán’s son, and Arthur Farmer, who works at CHOP’T Creative Salad Co.
The ceremony was held at the Westchester County Center in White Plains.
Seventeen police officers were honored during the annual Westchester County Police Memorial Service and Honor Awards Ceremony for their achievements in the line of duty. In addition, the names of 86 officers who lost their lives while serving over the years in Westchester were read aloud and taps were played to honor their memory. Yonkers Police Capt. Andrew Lane and officers Thomas Bennett, Dawn Lebzelter, Kayla Maher, Brendan Moore and Vincent Reda were honored for the “bravery, teamwork and diligence to duty” they demonstrated during the September shootout on a quiet residential street in which Maher was wounded. Yonkers Detective Sgt. Brian Moran and detectives Sean Drain, Robert Villanueva, John Tyndal and Richard Devito were honored for their actions in arresting suspects in a homicide that occurred on Dec. 7, 2017, on Riverview Place. Mount Pleasant Sgt. Eric Anttila and detectives Marco Mendoza and Justin Jacobson were recognized for their swift arrest of a suspect who attempted to enter two occupied homes in the middle of the night on Nov. 17, 2017. White Plains Sgt. Vincenzo Battaglia, Sgt. La Valle Larrier and Detective German Lopez received the lifesaving award for the quick actions and tactics they used to save a suicidal man who was trying to jump onto the Bronx River Parkway from the Hamilton Avenue Bridge on March 16, 2018.

Bronzi joined Altium Wealth in Purchase in 2014 after more than 20 years in banking. She’s a graduate of the Executive Leadership for Women program at Rutgers University.
Rye Brook-based Pell Wealth Partners, a private wealth advisory practice of Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc., has been recognized as a 2018 Best Places to Work for Financial Advisers by the trade publication InvestmentNews. A luncheon was held at the University Club in Chicago on May 15 to honor the firms that had been selected. Pell was chosen as one of this year’s top-50 based on employer and employee surveys that covered company culture, benefits, career paths and more. Geri Pell, CEO of Pell Wealth Partners, said, “We are a dynamic group of individuals who love what we do and are passionate about helping clients through every step of their financial journeys.” The selected firms have from 15 to 270 employees and manage a total of $115 billion in client assets.
Charlotte Reid, a teacher assistant at Elizabeth Seton’s John A. Coleman School in Yonkers, received the fourth annual St. Elizabeth Seton Children’s Foundation Education Mission Award in Honor of Sr. Marie Morris. The school held a ceremony on May 15. The award’s namesake is a member of the Sisters of Charity of New York and volunteers at both the Coleman School’s Yonkers and White Plains campuses. She had been with the Archdiocese of New York and was executive director of the John Cardinal O’Connor School for Learning Disabled. Morris is vice chairperson of the Coleman School’s board. Reid joined the Coleman School in 2012. Morris said, “Her demonstration of love and concern for all is obvious. Not just for our children, but for everyone with whom she works.”

MARIA’S GARDEN BLOOMS AT HOSPITAL
Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital has dedicated Maria’s Garden, a 20,000-square-foot area near its entrance that features flowers, shrubs, walkways, seating areas, a life-size chess/ checkerboard, a giant teddy bear and a six-foot tall dog crafted by world-renowned sculpture artist Yoshitomo Nara. Maria’s Garden is the vision of Brenda and John Fareri, the hospital’s founding benefactors. The hospital and garden are named in honor of their late youngest daughter, Maria. The garden was funded by Pamal Broadcasting’s 100.7 WHUD and the family of Jim and Kathy Morrell. Maria Fareri was only 13 when she died of rabies in 1995. She had been hospitalized at the Westchester Medical Center. After her death, her parents learned that she had made a special wish as part of a school project: “For the health and well-being of all the children in the world.” Fulfilling that wish was at the core of the effort to create Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital in Valhalla.
WOMEN’S LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE HOSTS SUMMIT The Women’s Leadership Institute of the Manhattanville College School of Business will be hosting its 4th Annual Women’s Leadership Summit: Dare to Be Bold on June 14 at Reid Castle on its campus in Purchase.

launch his future life. Later he earned his MBA degree at Kellogg and then spent time in the corporate world at Johnson & Johnson and Unilever.

JULIA Expert orthopedic surgery helped this teen dance competitor get back on her toes. At fifteen, Julia suffered a painful knee injury while dancing. After surgery and a year of physical therapy, she still couldn’t dance. That’s when she went for a second opinion with a surgeon at the White Plains Hospital Center for Orthopedic & Spine Surgery. Dr. Rick Weinstein performed minimally invasive knee surgery. In just two months, Julia was back in the dance studio.
