NEW CONCEPT ST. REGIS IN RYE IS THE FIRST NOT CONNECTED TO A HOTEL BY PETER KATZ pkatz@westfairinc.com

eveloper Alan Weissman appears to have done exactly what marketing and business development gurus insist entrepreneurs must do in order to be successful: “Find a need and fill it.” His St. Regis Residences project at 120 Old Post Road in Rye has been welcoming its first residents, with Marriott International Inc., owner of

the St Regis brand, starting to manage the luxury property. Buyers had moved into the first dozen units as of the beginning of August. “We’ve completed the first two parts of the fivepart project,” Weissman told the Business Journal. “The amenity space is now 100% complete and one of our residential buildings is also completely finished at this point and the next three buildings will be finished over the next couple of months so we’re really at the end of the project.” » ST.

IBM brings AI into study of the progression of Parkinson’s disease BY PHIL HALL phall@westfairinc.com

uring the past three years, artificial intelligence (AI) researchers at IBM in Armonk have collaborated with neuroscientists at the Michael J. Fox Foundation on studies designed to predict the progression of Parkinson’s disease. In a study that was recently published in The Lancet Digital Health, the IBM and Fox foundation team showed the ability to build AI in a manner that could accurately chart the patterns in which a patient’s Parkinson’s symptoms progress, as well as how and when a patient’s health would devolve into an acute state of the disease. Jianying Hu, IBM fellow and global science leader for AI in health care, explained that trying to track how Parkinson’s progresses within a patient is one of the most challenging tasks facing the medical

profession. “It’s a neurodegenerative condition that has no cure,” she said. “It affects 6 million people and the case rate is rising rapidly. At the same time, there is very little understanding of how the disease actually progresses — and its progression is very heterogeneous, meaning different patients can take a completely different route. “That light lack of understanding into the disease progression has really been hampering our ability to accurately assess where the patient is at and to be able to appropriately treat and manage patients,” she said. “And, also, to drive these types of clinical trials.” Hu praised the foundation for amassing a large collection of observational data on Parkinson’s disease through an international study. Using that data as a foundation, Hu continued, the next obstacle was to work through the heterogeneity and complexity of the disease

Michael J. Fox to find common ground among patients. “The disease progresses along many dimensions,” Hu said. “There is the motor dimension, which most people are aware of and also nonmotor symptoms like the disorders and mood swings. For that reason, the effect of the medications that used to manage the symptoms vary from patient to patient and also depends on the stage of the disease.” As a result, traditional disease modeling did not apply to Parkinson’s. Hu noted the foundation contacted IBM to leverage its machine learning and AI methodologies “to help them tease out useful insights from that data.” By using IBM’s AI tools, the researchers’ modeling decisions opened a new door into understanding the disease’s multiple states and progression pathways. The results have determined the factors that define a patient’s state, including the ability to perform routine daily activities, issues concerning degrading of movement and postural instability and non-

motor symptoms, including depression, anxiety, cognitive impairment and sleep disorders. While the researchers identified diverse progression pathways, the AI model was still able to make accurate predictions, including forecasts into the advanced state of Parkinson’s disease and outcomes, including dementia and the inability to walk unassisted. Hu also pointed out that IBM’s AI researchers have been working with other research foundations to use their technology to study the progression of Huntington’s disease and type 1 diabetes, with the goal of using their research to enhance clinical trials and accelerate the development of new therapeutics. “This is really, really exciting,” Hu said. “We have been working, applying and developing advanced machine learning methods to observational health care data to build models and derive insights. “And the key challenge is to be able through that collaboration to really understand what is the right problem to solve.”

Scarsdale investor says he’s fighting $18M demand by ‘vulture capitalist’

BY BILL HELTZEL

was accruing at $5,622 a day. Silberberg said he has tried to consensually restructure the deal, but Leerink insists on collecting more than $18 million. Leerink accused Silberberg of breaches of loan guarantees. On May 7, he filed a foreclosure action in Massachusetts. Now, Silberberg said, the project could be headed toward bankruptcy. “He’s trying to wipe us out,” he said. “You have a vulture investor trying to capitalize on Covid who is using a technical legal argument to try to force people who are hoping to improve the world somehow — and that is the goal of this project — to force their hand.” Will Leerink succeed? Silberberg asked. “Stay tuned. But we don’t feel like capitulating to that kind of investment behavior.”

he Covid-19 crisis stressed an already struggling youth sports complex in Massachusetts, according to Scarsdale real estate developer Stuart Silberberg, and now a “vulture capitalist” is trying to seize control of the project. SHS ACK LLC, controlled by Boston investor Jeffrey Leerink, sued Silberberg on July 23 in U.S. District Court, White Plains, for $18.1 million. Silberberg does not dispute that he owes money, but he argues that Leerink is trying to charge excessive interest on a technical default going back four years. “I don’t think he has a great case,” Silberberg told the Business Journal. “This lawsuit is to pressure me to hand him the keys. ...My view is that he is not entitled to $18 million and 18% default interest from four years ago.” Silberberg is the founder and managing partner of Ajax Advisors, a Manhattan real estate investment firm whose deals are valued at more than $25 billion, according to its website. In 2016, Ajax and Five Capital Management borrowed $11.5 million from HarborOne Bank for the first phase of a proposed $100 million New England Sports Village in Attleboro, Massachusetts. Silberberg personally guaranteed the loans. The dream was to build a youth sports complex with an ice rink, tennis courts, soccer fields, fieldhouse, swimming complex and hotel. “It’s a feel good project,” Silberberg said, “and it was also done to make money.” The ice rink opened in 2016 but has underperformed, he said, and he has had to continually borrow money to support the original loans. In 2017, according to the Leerink lawsuit, the loans defaulted because of failures to deposit money in an escrow account, maintain debt service ratios and provide financial disclosures. Silberberg described the default as technical. HarborOne did not charge default interest. He said he continued to work with the bank and make the required monthly payments and he stayed “pretty much current.” He also put in a new management team that he said began to turn the ice rink business around. Then the Covid-19 crisis hit. The ice rink was closed for four months and loan payments stopped. Last December, HarborOne sold the loans to SHS ACK. “He (Leerink) bought it with the idea that he could charge default interest all the way back to 2017,” Silberberg said. As of April 21, according to the lawsuit, Silberberg owed $18,134,252, and interest

Major project proposed for downtown White Plains BY PETER KATZ pkatz@westfairinc.com

he White Plains Common Council decided at its Aug. 2 meeting to move ahead with the review of a plan for a $121 million mixed-use development at 70 Westchester Ave. The council scheduled a public hearing on the proposal for Oct. 3. It referred the application to various city departments and boards for them to study. According to attorney Mark Weingarten of the law firm DelBello Donnellan Weingarten Wise & Wiederkehr LLP, Armonkbased Saber-North White Plains LLC is seeking approvals to create a residential and retail center with 175 residential units and 15,000 square feet of streetscape retail, restaurant and motor vehicle sales space. The project would include 297 parking spaces. Eleven of the residential units would be in the affordable category. There is a requirement under city regulations for 21 affordable units in a development of the proposed size and the developer would like to make a $1.56 million payment to the White Plains Affordable Housing Fund as a buyout for the affordable units not provided. The site is across from The Westchester shopping mall and opposite where Paulding Street meets Westchester Avenue. In 2013, Saber proposed building an assisted living facility and some retail spaces at 80 Westchester Ave. Weingarten told a work session of the White Plains Common Council on July 26 that back then the city had asked Saber if it would be possible to create something more extensive in the area, because it is a significant gateway into White Plains. The developer made a deal to incorporate additional neighboring properties, including a cityowned lot in the northern section of the site close to Franklin Avenue. That led to an application to build The Collection, which at that time involved 1.1 million square feet of space. White Plains Chrysler Jeep’s property at 70 Westchester Ave. was involved in the assemblage but the auto company subsequently had to end its participation. That led to revisions for The Collection, which ultimately was reduced in size and approved by the city

AUGUST 9, 2021

for 592,000 square feet with 276 homes and 25,000 square feet of commercial space. The Collection subsequently was acquired by Toll Brothers. “Fast forward to the present; we have now reacquired the site at 70 Westchester from White Plains Chrysler Jeep,” Weingarten said. “They are back and allowing us to come in and buy that site and put it back in so we’d like to come in and finish what we started in 2013.” Architect Mark Schulman of Design Development in White Plains said that the new 70 Westchester Ave. project would have the benefit of connecting Franklin Avenue to Westchester Avenue, prompting Mayor Tom Roach to explain that there would not be a roadway but rather a way for pedestrians to walk between the residential neighborhood along Franklin Avenue and the commercial activity on Westchester Avenue. Schulman said there would be three buildings in the project. Building 1 would have four levels of residential over one level of retail. Building 2 would be a one-level restaurant structure. Building 3 would have eight levels of residential over two levels of parking. “This is a cleaning up of an area that really needed cleaning up,” Weingarten said. “I know it because I drive by there every morning on my way to work, on Westchester (Avenue) when I get off 287.

“The good news on The Collection is that they have started demolishing all of the buildings there on that site and this is going to get cleaned up, which is lovely. This is a brownfield site. There is environmental contamination on the site. It will be cleaned up to the residential standard so that’s also a big benefit for the neighborhood and the city.” Weingarten pointed out that the project would prohibit motor vehicle traffic from the 70 Westchester Ave. site into the Franklin Avenue neighborhood with the elimination of vehicle servicing activities that had been operating there. It is estimated that 200 construction jobs would be created for 28 months and 82 permanent jobs would be created in the completed project. Martin Berger of Saber said that there would be bike paths through the development. “We’re installing a green wall, which will cover the parking decks,” Berger said. “A good portion of the roofs will not be black tar, they’ll be green-oriented. We’re also working with a geothermal company. We’re fairly far along, on the third or fourth set of plans and design. Hopefully that will work: geothermals for heat and air conditioning.” Berger said the site has some gas service, which will be kept for the restaurants but that the residences will be all electric.

Renderings of the project. The project is expected to be on the agenda for the Common Council’s regularly scheduled August meeting. Berger’s Saber Real Estate North LLC along with EnviroFinance Group LLC are in the midst of creating Hudson Heritage, a $300 million-plus development on the

grounds of the former Hudson River State Hospital in the town of Poughkeepsie. Weingarten pointed out that Saber and its related companies have completed developments valued at more than $1.5 billion in New York and Florida, including Rivertowns Square in Dobbs Ferry.

Cuomo loses support in wake of AG’s scathing report BY PETER KATZ pkatz@westfairinc.com

ov. Andrew M. Cuomo continued to lose support both within the political establishment and among his base of Democrat voters following the Aug. 3 release by state Attorney General Letitia James of a report that concluded Cuomo engaged in sexual harassment of 11 women and created a toxic workplace in the governor’s office in violation of state and federal laws. At the same time, Westchester County District Attorney Mimi Rocah is taking a look at least at one of the incidents covered in the report that took place in Mount Kisco and involved a New York state trooper. Albany District Attorney P. David Soares is also beginning a criminal investigation and invited women who have claims against Cuomo to contact his office. State Assembly Speaker Carl Hastie, in addition to calling for Cuomo to resign, said he will push to conclude the Assembly’s investigation into Cuomo and begin impeachment proceedings that could lead to his removal. Under state law, while an impeachment trial is underway, the governor is required to step aside and be replaced by the lieutenant governor. The report released by James found that on numerous occasions Cuomo engaged in conduct that constitutes unlawful sex-based harassment. The report found that the governor sexually harassed a number of current and former state employees, engaged in unwanted touching and made comments of a sexual nature. James said that her office would not pursue a criminal case against Cuomo but said that whether there is action against him would depend on whether those who were impacted by Cuomo’s behavior ask for action from other levels of law enforcement. During the course of the five-month investigation, 179 people were interviewed, including women who had made complains about Cuomo’s behavior, state employees and others who regularly interacted with Cuomo. Investigators went through more than 74,000 documents, including emails, texts and photos. James said, “These interviews and pieces of evidence reveal a deeply disturbing yet clear picture: Governor Cuomo sexually harassed current and former state employees in violation of both federal and state laws. “The independent investigation found that Governor Cuomo sexually harassed multiple women, many of whom were young women, by engaging in unwanted groping, kisses, hugging and by making inappropriate comments. “Further, the governor and his inner team took actions to retaliate against at least one former employee for coming forward with her story, her truth. Governor Cuomo’s administration fostered a toxic workplace and enabled harassment and created a hostile work environment.”

In a recorded televised message responding to the report, Cuomo said, “I cooperated with the review and now I can finally share the truth. The facts are much different than what had been portrayed.” “I never touched anyone inappropriately or made inappropriate sexual advances,” Cuomo said. “I am 63 years old. I have lived my entire adult life in public view. That is just not who I am and that’s not who I have ever been.” During his message, Cuomo presented a collection of photographs that showed him touching, hugging and kissing men and women. The purpose was to demonstrate TWB Loanvarious Decision that having forms of physical contact WCBJ with people was a normal part of socializing 7.375” for him. w x 7.125” h 4-27-21 Cuomo’s attorney, Rita Glavine of Glavine PLCC, prepared an 85-page point-by-point response to the report. President Joseph Biden joined the growing chorus of elected officials saying it’s time

for Cuomo to go. When asked if he condoned the use of a photo of him and Cuomo embracing that Cuomo had used to demonstrate that he touched and hugged a lot of people, Biden said, ”I’m sure there are some embraces that were totally innocent but apparently the attorney general decided there were things that weren’t.” Biden’s remarks came shortly after Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and New York’s other senator, Kirsten Gellibrand, had called for Cuomo to leave office. Govs. Ned Lamont of Connecticut, Dan McKee of Rhode Island, Phil Murphy of New Jersey, and Tom Wolf of Pennsylvania released a joint statement saying, “We are appalled at the findings of the independent investigation by the New York Attorney General. Governor Cuomo should resign from office.” By the following morning, Aug. 4, numerous other of New York’s elected officials in

Washington and throughout New York state had come out against Cuomo’s remaining in office. Former Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino, who had run for governor against Cuomo, told the Business Journal, “I’m not surprised. He’s been a bully, a thug and has had a sense of entitlement for decades so the fact that he would abuse his power and intimidate women is not news to me or many others who have known him.” Among the people the report concluded Cuomo sexually harassed was a female state trooper. She was assigned to Cuomo’s house in Mount Kisco. The report recounted a 2019 incident in which the trooper approached the governor in the driveway of the house to ask if he needed anything and the governor said, “Can I kiss you?” She said that she worried about retaliation if she declined so she responded, “Sure,” and then Cuomo kissed her on the cheek.

St. Regis—

Model residence. The St. Regis Residences complex will have 92 condominium units, ranging from one- to four-bedrooms. It is designed to fill a need for all of the comforts, conveniences and luxuries a resident could wish for as reflected in the St. Regis brand that has been nurtured since John Jacob Astor IV opened The St. Regis hotel in New York in 1903, which he had built while being a part owner of the Waldorf-Astoria. The St. Regis brand is owned by Marriott International Inc., which has 30 brands, including Ritz-Carlton, Le Méridien and Sheraton. According to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, at the end of 2020 it had 2,149 company-owned properties and 5,493 franchised and licensed properties worldwide. The company’s operations were affected by Covid and for 2020 its revenues were $10.57 billion compared with $20.97 billion the year before. The Bethesda, Maryland-based company has been active in the branded residences field, working with real estate developers such as Weissman to create projects in localities reflecting the quality of its brand names and then managing those properties. St. Regis Residences, Rye, will have a project cost of more than $100 million, according to Weissman. “When the pandemic first hit we were very concerned but to our great surprise the sales...have been amazing. We’ve achieved some of the highest sales per square foot prices in the market and we’re currently at 80% sold and we haven’t even finished the construction, so these are all pre-sales and it’s absolutely spectacular in terms of our sales on the project,” Weissman said. Weissman said that just as Covid-19 affected virtually all businesses, so too did it affect the St. Regis project. “Timing is always an issue in construction, but with material shortages, labor shortages and other things and, of course, the pandemic itself, there have been some delays

in the project but we’ve pushed through and we’re managing,” Weissman said. “In the next couple of months we’ll be 100% complete. Most of that 80% that have purchased here bought off the plans. They bought in a sales center first, a sales center on-site and then a sales center in the city of Rye, downtown Rye.” Weissman expressed special pride in the St. Regis project, noting that the Harrisonbased company Alfred Weissman Real Estate LLC, founded by his father some 50 years ago, has been involved in a variety of projects in what he termed “different food groups of real estate,” including hotels, office buildings, retail space and residences. “It is the first standalone St. Regis in the world that is not connected to a hotel. All the others before this, going back to John Jacob Astor in New York City with the St. Regis have always been connected to a hotel,” Weissman said. “So, this is really unusual and we really kind of invented the whole concept here in Rye for the St. Regis brand and I know the upper levels of Marriott are very excited about what we’re doing here.” Weissman observed that there’s a market for a wide variety of housing types in Westchester, whether it’s affordable housing, middle-income or luxury projects. “This is a luxury project. It is not affordable to most people. It’s a very, very high-end project,” Weissman said. “What makes it kind of important for the community is that a lot of the people who are living here are business leaders, community leaders, who otherwise would leave the area and go other places. “Now they have time to give back to the community. They’re involved in their local charities, in their religious institutions and things like that. They’re downsizing from their homes, beautiful homes in the immediate area in Westchester, Fairfield County, but usually they’d move to New York City, move to Florida, and really aren’t basing themselves here anymore and what the project kind of lets them do...is stay here and age in WCBJ

place, which really hasn’t been that much of an option prior to this project.” Weissman forecast a continuation in Westchester of the trend to convert office buildings for other uses, noting that the St. Regis site had been the Dictaphone office building when the Weissman company bought it two decades ago. “I do think that post-pandemic there is going to be less of a reliance on offices. I do think people are working remote,

going other places and I just don’t see the need for as much office space as there was prior (to the pandemic) and even then there was a huge vacancy factor in Westchester,” Weissman said. In the future, he said, the company will be looking at doing projects similar to the St. Regis Residences possibly in Westchester, New England and on Long Island and is considering the acquisition of a large group of hotels in the Midwest.

Should businesses add cryptocurrency to their transactional activities? BY PHIL HALL phall@westfairinc.com

ver the past few months, cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum and Dogecoin have dominated the financial news headlines as investors have rushed to embrace these vehicles. But less attention has been given to the original plan of using cryptocurrencies as digital alternatives to established currencies. Widespread use of cryptocurrency for everyday transactions is still relatively uncommon — which is no surprise to Justin Wilcox, partner in the accounting firm of FML, which has six offices across Connecticut, including Stamford. “Cryptocurrency, in general, encompasses thousands of coin projects,” Wilcox said. “Typically, it would be digital assets that are secured by a blockchain, like a publicly distributed ledger. Bitcoin was the original public blockchain that was fully operational and then other projects came out. Dogecoin is actually a pretty old project that was sort of made as a joke or a meme or an experiment not that long after Bitcoin was created, and it just survived all the way until today.” Although Wilcox was aware of several software companies that fielded vendor requests to be paid in cryptocurrency, he observed that others — most notably the electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla — teases the notion of cryptocurrency transactions for “high-profile publicity.” Still, there are some financial experts who continue to predict cryptocurrency will eventually become an accepted payment vehicle in business-to-business and business-to-consumer situations. But Wilcox remained skeptical that this would occur in the very near future. “Right now, there’s really no reason that a traditional business would need to make payments in cryptocurrency instead of dollars,” he said. “For the foreseeable future, it’s going

to be dollars.” But, he quickly added, that’s not to say the situation will gradually change. “When there’s a shift to more widespread adoption, it’d be the same as accepting credit cards and the same as accepting no-cash versus cash,” he continued. “Some grocery stores accept EBT (electronic benefit transfer), for example — this is just another form of getting paid.” Wilcox predicted that there will be more business-related cryptocurrency acceptance over the next decade as “more people get excited about it and more people get involved in it.” He also believed that business owners will rely on cryptocurrency usage as a way to stand out from their competition. And while Wilcox warned cryptocurrencies can be “a lot more volatile” than some foreign currencies, he has shown they can offer faster transactions for companies doing business overseas. “I did a presentation for my company a few years ago and we made an international payment in two minutes with a cryptocurrency,” he said. “And I did it while we were doing the presentation live — there were no bank delays or bank processing. It was just your wallet to the other person’s wallet.” However, there is one element of cryptocurrency use that its advocates frequently overlook: the tax aspect on cryptocurrency transactions. “From a business perspective, if you collect Bitcoin instead of cash and it’s worth $50,000, whether you collected Bitcoin or cash your revenue is $50,000,” Wilcox said. “Now, if you go to sell that Bitcoin when the price moves, then you have a gain or loss on that transaction and you’re now tracking in a manner similar to stock sales. “The question for business,” he continued, “would be, ‘Why are you doing that if you’re not a cryptocurrency business? What are you doing? What’s the reason? What’s the reason to hold a large portion of it today?’” Today’s digital environment has been constantly disrupted by cybersecurity threats, including assaults by hackers demanding ransom paid in cryptocurrency. Wilcox warned that unlike the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. protection that bank customers enjoy on their deposits, cryptocurrency users lack that level of security over their funds, particularly if they bypass third-party custodians and decide to maintain their own funds online. “You are your own bank and protected by cryptography and your balance on the ledger is protected because no one else can access it,” he said. “Now, if someone gets in possession of your private key, which is effectively the password to your Bitcoin balance, then they can move your funds and take it and it’s practically unrecoverable.” For those who want to test the digital

assets environment, Wilcox said there are now plug-in applications for companies that enable a third-party intermediary to accept cryptocurrency payments and then exchange them into dollar transactions, minus a service fee. “Then, you can say, ‘Oh, I accept Bitcoin as a business,’ but you don’t actually accept it because someone else is handling and managing, collecting it and converting it and sending dollars,” he said. “That’s a way that you can accept it today without actually dealing with the actual cryptocurrency issue.”

Atlantic Station West adds to Stamford’s luxury high-rise landscape BY KEVIN ZIMMEREMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

he apartments in the latest residential addition to the Stamford landscape, Atlantic Station West, are already nearly half-leased — even with its grand opening only occurring on July 29. As of July 28, 155 of the 325 units at the 405 Atlantic St. complex had been leased — about 48% — and 33% were occupied, according to RXR Realty Vice President-Project Executive Joseph Graziose. Preleasing, overseen by Greystar, began in April. “It’s been phenomenal,” Graziose told the Business Journal. “We saw an average of 30 to 40 move-ins in May and June and had a really successful July with over 50.” Atlantic Station West is the final piece of a three-building luxury development that was conceived in 2016 and consists of two residential towers, as well as office and retail space. The first phase of the project was completed in January 2018 and includes 325 studio, one-, and two-bedroom rental units, 16,000 square feet of retail and 333 parking spaces. Graziose said it stands at 98% occupancy and has witnessed “a lot of retention, which is really important in this market. It

and two-bedroom apartments, measuring 492 to 1,303 square feet and monthly rents ranging from $2,380 to $5,298, along with 48,000 square feet of retail space. “There’s a real community feel” at the complex, Graziose said, with ameni-

ties, including outdoor fire pits, a resident lounge with full kitchen, fitness center and an indoor/outdoor swimming pool. “Not only that,” he said, “but we’re seeing a wide range of residents coming in — young professionals, empty nesters, young families. You go out back and see people sitting at their laptops and young children playing. Greystar has done a great job of marketing to both people visiting Stamford and longtime Fairfield County residents.” While the city has long-established itself as a thriving entity, Graziose said an influx of people from New York City has served as a “bonus. There’s been a need for multifamily, live-work-play in Stamford for a long time, and now we’re seeing that need being met.” Indeed, Stamford Director of Economic Development Thomas Madden recently told the Business Journal that “We can’t build apartment buildings fast enough” and reported that the occupancy rate for all of the city’s apartments stands at close to 97%. Graziose said that the city will continue to benefit from the New York City exodus even as the Covid-19 pandemic recedes. “Companies aren’t necessarily demanding that you go into the office five times a week,” he said. “I’m not sure that’s ever going to happen again on a scale like we saw before. “But New York City continues to be the center of New England,” he said. “There are people who are willing to spend a little more time commuting there three or four times a week than there were pre-Covid. But

Living room. they know they’re going to get more square footage here than they perhaps would in the New York City market.” With the Atlantic Station now complete, is RXR, based in Manhattan, looking to add more to Stamford?

SPEAKING OF INSURANCE Apart from my focus on insurance brokerage, I serve as an expert witness for attorneys on a variety of matters. A large percentage of my cases involve insufficient limits for uninsured/underinsured motorist protection on the personal auto policy (UM/UIM). I find that many motorists concentrate on their own liability exposure where they may injure someone or damage property but neglect thinking about the possibility of injury to themselves. UM/UIM is the flip side of liability. It is designed to protect you or a family member from an injury or disability as a result of a motorist that either has no insurance or insufficient insurance to compensate for your injury. Usually you will find that the UM/UIM limit on your policy is the same limit for your liability. In other words if you have $300,000 for liability, you will have that limit for UM/UIM. The state of Connecticut allows for a “doubling up” of the UM/UIM limit. Under the scenario just described, you could have $600,000 UM/UIM with a $300,000 liability limit. Umbrella (excess liability) policies will provide additional limits over liability but most do not do so for UM/UIM. Thus, it is important to take advantage of the doubling up feature. There are many drivers out there who have minimal limits for liability or no insurance at all. Load up on the UM/UIM to protect your family and safeguard against these irresponsible drivers. For more information on this topic and other insurance matters contact Guy Hatfield at ghatfield@hatfieldinsuranceagency.com or (203) 256-5660.

“We’re satisfied with what we’ve accomplished so far there,” Graziose said. “We do not have another project slated for Stamford, but we’re always working on opportunities.” He said the company is “actively looking at other locations in Fairfield County

to potentially do something,” including the town of Fairfield. “We will continue to focus on transit-oriented development, so anywhere that’s near a Metro-North station makes sense for us,” he said.

Houlihan Lawrence taps Pamela Sartorius for global business development focus BY PHIL HALL phall@westfairinc.com

oulihan Lawrence has hired Pamela Sartorius as its managing director of global business development, based at the company’s Westport office. “In this role, I am responsible for managing and growing our global business relationships,” Sartorius said. “We have a strong, longstanding relationship with the leading real estate companies of the world and I oversee a team of seasoned professionals managing our incoming and outgoing referral business, the business generated through our website and also corporate relocation.” Sartorius added that she will be focused on “establishing new relationships with corporate businesses within our north of NYC footprint” — which covers Westchester, Putnam, Dutchess, Columbia, Ulster and Greene counties in New York and Fairfield and Litchfield counties in Connecticut. Sartorius and her team’s corporate relocation manager will also be seeking to build relationships with companies that are looking to bring their corporate operations and workforces into the region, thus requiring a double-focus on identifying the right commercial properties for new business tenants and pinpointing the best residential opportunities within a residential environment that already more than competitive for buyers. “We have a network of 1,300 agents in our north of NYC network, and then we have 44,000 agents within our Home Services of America network,” she said. “All of these meaningful connections allow us to really best service our customers and clients.” Sartorius defined the regional markets she oversees as competitive, but pointed out that Houlihan Lawrence has more than held its own.

It helped her “gain more familiarity with the different communities within our footprint” before she chose to settle in Fairfield County. “I certainly felt as though I was in the best hands, working with Houlihan Lawrence and the agent who has been helping me,” she said. “It has been just a tremendous amount of support and research expertise, and I’ve really felt as though I’ve been in great hands — so I can certainly speak from personal experience.” Sartorius was previously a strategic growth manager at William Raveis Real Estate, Mortgage & Insurance in New York City, where she was responsible for business growth through strategic relationship-building in the industry and throughout that company’s nine-state footprint, which included recruiting, coaching and mentoring agents. Prior to that, she held senior positions at Brown Harris Stevens and Corcoran Group. Before her real estate career, Sartorius was involved in the publishing industry, which she credited as helping to establish her within her current field. “My professional background has always been in business development and marketing,” she said. “And I feel as though I can really showcase my strengths in building these meaningful relationships in global business development within the residential real estate space.”

Jobs program takes on gun violence in Hudson Valley cities BY BRIDGET MCCUSKER bmccusker@westfairinc.com

ith gun violence across New York deemed a public health crisis, the state is seeking to replace weapons with a jobs initiative aimed at vulnerable young adults. Funding in the amount of $16 million would be used for programs in the state’s cities outside of New York City that have been struggling with an increase in shootings. Young people from ages 18 to 24 who are considered as most at-risk for being impacted by gun violence can seek job training, job placement and career-planning resources. The state determined that 3,200 youth could be served statewide. The program will also see that individuals are referred to other support services for housing and legal issues if necessary. “We know that simply telling kids to put the gun down doesn’t work — we have to give them an alternative,” Gov. Andrew Cuomo said. “This new funding for job training and stable, good-paying career placement opportunities for our most vulnerable young people across New York state, does just that. It’s an investment in our economy, in our recovery and in our security. And it’s a beacon of hope for a generation that too often feels

“

The impact will be twofold. First for those youth participants receiving services, and secondly for the employers receiving well-trained employees. Employers not only receive well-trained candidates for hire, they can receive financial hiring incentives in the form of tax credits, on-the-job training funds and/or apprenticeships.” – Sean McGrail, executive director of the Yonkers Office of Workforce Development

bereft of it.” The July 21 announcement came two weeks after the governor declared a gun-violence disaster emergency in New York and announced the creation of the Office of Gun Violence Prevention. The announcement also included a $138.7 million investment strategy. With the $16 million workforce development program, that investment is being increased to $154.7 million. The state Department of Labor will partner with local workforce development boards in each municipality. “Our local workforce development boards are proven partners with an extensive history of helping young people improve their lives through job training and placement,” Labor Commissioner Roberta Reardon said. “Governor Cuomo is leading this charge through innovative short-term programs that dovetail to proven long-term solutions that will last for generations.” To be eligible, the young people must be unemployed, underemployed and out of school and living in the cities impacted by gun violence specified by the program. They can be referred by community partners, municipalities and nonprofit agencies. The initiative will reach communities across the state, including several in the 12

upper and lower Hudson Valley, where 1,325 jobs for at-risk youth will be created. In Westchester, Mount Vernon and Yonkers are to receive $1.05 million and $1.1 million for 210 and 220 youth to be served, respectively. Several Hudson Valley municipalities outside of Westchester are also recipients: • Spring Valley is to receive $750,000; • Newburgh will receive $600,000; • Poughkeepsie will receive $350,000; • Middletown will receive $325,000; and • Kingston will receive $300,000. A combined total of 465 young people will be served in the five municipalities. In Mount Vernon, Yonkers and Spring Valley, the state will provide funding for 253 summer jobs for those ages 15 to 24, along with services to connect 580 at-risk youth to permanent, good-paying jobs. According to Sean McGrail, executive director of the Yonkers Office of Workforce Development, the Yonkers Workforce Development Board is committed to the initiative, administering the funds and monitoring the performance of the program. “The impact will be twofold,” McGrail said. “First for those youth participants receiving services, and secondly for the employers receiving well-trained employees. Employers not only receive well-trained candidates for hire, they can receive financial hiring incentives in the form of tax credits, on-the-job training funds and/or apprenticeships.” Mount Vernon already administers a youth employment program, through the city’s Youth Bureau. Mount Vernon Mayor Shawyn Patterson-Howard said the funding will go toward strengthening this program even further. “Some of the employment training programs that we have include OSHA safety management, fire safety, scaffolding, flagging, medical industries, cooking classes, ServSafe certifications and security,” PattersonHoward said. “We offer multiple tracks of construction trades. We offer multiple tracks of employment certifications and conjunctions with our partners currently and so we will definitely continue to work with them to administer this funding, in addition, because we want to ensure that we’re reaching the kids who are most at risk.” According to Patterson-Howard, several

government agencies, including the Office of Temporary Disability Assistance, the Division of Criminal Justice Services, the state Department of Labor, the Office of Children and Family Services and the Office of Addiction Services and Supports and Mental Health will offer assistance in the program. She noted that her city had been facing lower levels of gun violence since its most recent high in 2016 and 2017, but when the pandemic hit, a relapse occurred. She attributes that spike partially to the availability of guns and the increase in people carrying guns. The state funding, she said, could provide some hope for building up personal assets as an alternative to gun violence. “We want to make special outreach to the target neighborhoods and to the target young people who are disconnected because it’s those who don’t have positive interactions and some of these opportunities and relationships who are the ones who are most at risk for shooting or being shot and involving themselves in negative street or community activity,” Patterson-Howard said. “And so we want to use this to target them. That’s what the money is really intended for, is to target those high-risk young people, young adults who need some structure, some attention, some support and some direction.” Aside from general job placement and summer employment, she noted that the goal for the Mount Vernon iteration of the program is to create long-term solutions for individuals and to have a support system in place for those who need it. “We don’t want to just put them to work,” she said. “We also want to provide them with the support of a job coach, because it’s not just giving a person a job, but it’s supporting them and onboarding into these different companies, getting used to the different cultures of the organizations for which they’ll work, making sure of timeliness, all of the life skills and new job skills that they might need to be successful, that they may not have been exposed to because for some people, this might be their first job. “And so we want to make sure that we’re providing more than just a job. We want to make sure we’re providing the technical skills that they will need to get a job, and then the soft skills that they will need to be successful in that job, and then that workplace environment.”

HUDSON VALLEY Film fest showcases local, international talent at Warwick Drive-In

BY BRIDGET MCCUSKER bmccusker@westfairinc.com

he Hudson Valley Film Fest is returning this month to the Warwick Drive-In Movie Theater. According to Hannah Maxwell, artistic director for the Hudson Valley Film Fest, the organizers hope to create a unique festival experience, as well as provide the Hudson Valley with a selection of creative films that they would be unlikely to see elsewhere in the region. The films, showing on Aug. 18 and 19, will span a variety of genres, including drama, comedy, documentary, animation, horror, music videos and experimental, but are all created in the short-film format, with an average run time of 10 minutes. Though the films are short, there are plenty to round out the festival. This year, it is expanding to take place over two nights, with 14 movies each night, almost doubling the number of films that were shown last year. Since the first year, the number of films in the festival has almost tripled from 10. The use of the drive-in theater is not

only unique, but was a factor that allowed the festival to go on last year even during the Covid-19 outbreak, with participants staying in their cars or outdoors and socially distanced. Drive-ins around the Hudson Valley, in fact, saw something of a renaissance this past year, after being classified as low-risk settings, and with few other big-screen options viable with the threat of Covid. “The location is definitely something that makes for a unique film festival experience,” Maxwell said. “The Warwick Drive-Is a historic venue and one of the last remaining drive-in theaters in the Northeast. If you haven’t been there, this is a great chance to come check it out.” This year, the organizers will remain cautious, but are embracing opportunities to make the festival environment more social. Maxwell and the festival team have organized a pre-festival reception at Pennings Cidery, across the road from the theater. The reception — open to the public — will include food and drinks, live music, an award presentation ceremony and filmmakers. By including nearby businesses in the

festivities, the organizers said they are staying true to their mission of supporting and promoting local organizations in tandem with the festival. “In addition to supporting local artists, one of our other original goals when we started the fest was to create a community-centric event that would collaborate with local businesses to cross-promote and support each other,” Maxwell said. “Over time, we hope to grow the event into something that promotes not only local artists and business, but that also promotes tourism in the Hudson Valley.” The festival relies on sponsorships, grants, submission fees and ticket sales for its funding. This summer has been one of the busiest in history for filming and production activity in the Hudson Valley. According to Maxwell, it’s more vibrant than ever. “Not only is there an incredible pool of homegrown talent here, but there are more and more filmmakers and artists relocating up here from the city, adding to that pool,” she said. “There is also a very supportive film commission and limitless incredible locations throughout the valley utilized by productions big and small.” FCBJ

The festival itself draws viewers not only from Orange County and Hudson Valley area, but sees audience members who come from New Jersey or the New York City area to see the unique films being offered at the festival, in addition to being streamed online for viewers anywhere. WCBJ

doors and art that reflect the equine history of the property. “When people come in to learn about our new building, many of them remember coming here as kids and teens to ride horses,” said Matthew Werner, community sales director. “It’s wonderful to be able to offer our seniors here in Rockland a choice … (as) many do no not want to leave their community and this is a great option.” Atria Senior Living offers studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom rental apartments and a range of care that includes independent and assisted living. A full-service dining room, 24-hour café and private transportation are among the amenities the facility offers. Memory care is also available. WCBJ

“Because those who struggle with dementia or Alzheimer’s have difficulty with time, we have a circadian lighting system…it goes through 26 phases and helps people with memory issues stay more focused,” Werner said. “Our memory care has an open floor plan that allows for less confusion about direction as well.” New resident Judy Grumet is originally from Clarkstown but had moved to Florida with her husband to retire several years ago. “My kids didn’t want me living alone anymore,” said Grumet “and my daughter learned a new senior housing complex was opening here, right in her neighborhood. I was hesitant, but I’m glad I made the move. It’s wonderful see my kids and grandkids on a regular basis now.”

Atria Senior Living began serving the senior community in 1996 and has grown to more than 200 locations in 28 states, and the New City facility is their newest in the mid-Hudson Valley. Clarkstown Supervisor George Hoehmann was on hand with company representatives and New City Chamber of Commerce President Alice Lenna to cut the red ribbon, officially opening the senior apartment complex. “They’ve also been sponsoring our Friday summer lunchtime concert series at Kevin Landau Park each week,” said Hoehmann, “and it has been attracting more and more people every week. … Atria Senior Living has been an active neighbor from the outset and are a welcome addition to our community.”

HUDSON VALLEY Plans for youth center at former Poughkeepsie YMCA move ahead BY BRIDGET MCCUSKER bmccusker@westfairinc.com

utchess County and the city of Poughkeepsie have solidified plans to convert the former YMCA at 35 Montgomery St. to a new, stateof-the-art “youth opportunity center” at Eastman Park at an initial investment of $25 million. The center is proposed to provide educational and health care services, child care and recreation. In May, the city approved the sale of the property to Dutchess County for a price of $10. On July 12, the county legislature authorized acceptance of the deal. The resolution was passed almost unanimously, with the exception of one negative vote from Legislator Alan Surman, who represents Dover and Union Vale, voicing concerns about the price tag of the project. The 3.35-acre site had been vacant for about 10 years before the city took ownership of it in 2019. Plans for the county to take over the property for a youth center have been in talks for the past six years, according to County Legislator Donald Sagliano. A preliminary environmental and structural review of the property by the city concluded that the existing 60,000-square-foot structure was unsafe and should be demolished. The county will spend $10 million in American Rescue Plan funding to cover the demolition, site remediation, design services and $1.5 million toward construction costs. County Legislator Stephen Caswell said, “I’ve listened to the value that this project will bring to Poughkeepsie and the county as a whole. While people in East Fishkill, where I represent, may not be the biggest users of this center, there’s a lot of value for the kids in the city and around the city… I think it’s a great opportunity to use the (American Rescue Plan) funds to consolidate services and opportunities for kids. And if we just save a few kids, it’ll pay for itself in no time.” The county has made a $25 million commitment to the project, official approvals of which will be completed once construction costs are estimated. After that, County Executive Marc Molinaro will ask the legislature to authorize $15 million in bonding to fulfill the rest of the funding. An advisory board will work to secure additional funding. The 35 Montgomery

Community Coalition will be a part of that board. The coalition, which is made up of representatives from county government, youth organizations, education leaders and health care leaders, was selected by the city for proposals to develop the youth and community center. MASS Design Group, which is based in Boston and runs its Hudson Valley Design Lab in the city of Poughkeepsie, will serve as the design consultant for the project. The design process will include extensive public engagement and is expected to take a year to complete. Several legislators voiced the hope that a transportation plan will be put in

place so that the center can be accessible to youth in the county beyond the city, and the legislature agreed to form a transportation committee for the project. “The time is ripe to build this center,” said County Legislature Chair Gregg Pulver. “The county has made a firm commitment to its youth through the Path to Promise initiative, and a youth center is a sound investment that will pay dividends for the county far down the road. I’m proud the legislature is taking this bold step to create a youth center that promises to serve as model for the region and beyond.” Facilities at the center are proposed to include an indoor pool, recreational FCBJ

facilities, a cafeteria, a gymnasium, sensory playground and health and therapy services. There are also plans for the center to house the community-led “DAY ONE” 24-hour child development center and teacher apprentice training program, which would train 200 early childhood teachers over five years. Legislator Barrington Atkins said, “The city of Poughkeepsie is a part of Dutchess County and when one of us are failing, we’re all failing. When you think of high rates of anxiety or depression or suicide or not having access to resources, it’s inner cities or communities that don’t have those resources that suffer the most. When one benefits, we all benefit.” WCBJ

HUDSON VALLEY New name, same vision for Orange County Citizens Foundation BY KATHY ROBERTS

haron Soons is quick to tell you what she loves best: taking on a project that people say cannot be done, then working until it’s accomplished. Before she returned to work on her family’s farm in New Hampton, she had worked on environmental projects for several years in and around New York City. One of those projects was right under the Brooklyn Bridge — a former dumping ground that had been neglected for years in the shadow of John Roebling’s architectural masterpiece. She and other like-minded residents got together in 2002 and envisioned the site as a park. “Who doesn’t love a park?” asked Soons. “Twenty years later, Brooklyn Bridge Park is an amazing place to visit and enjoy. To have been there when it was just an idea and see it become the beautiful place it has become is a real joy for me.” Soons brings that same spirit to her new position as executive director of Vision Hudson Valley, formerly the Orange County Citizens Foundation. “As the area continues to grow, people perceived the Citizens Foundation as a charitable institution, but our goal is to enhance the quality of life for all our residents.” To that end, it has inspired the creation of the Heritage Trail, the twice-yearly Hudson Valley Honor Flight, the Orange County Arts Council and the Seligmann Center for the Arts, among other endeavors. Now, as Vision Hudson Valley, Soons said the goal is to get more members of the community engaged and active in planning the future of the county and the Hudson Valley. Two weeks into her new role, Soons is strategizing how best to attract new members to the organization, which was formed in 1950 by a group of artists. The nonprofit is on the homestead of Surrealist artist Kurt Seligmann, whose widow, Arlette, donated the couple’s 55-acre farm to the Citizens Foundation before her death in 1962. “I’m blessed to have an active board of directors, who bring a whole range of experience and also give us corporate support. The name change to Vision Hudson Valley will definitely help define our purpose,” Soons said. “My parents raised me to be an environmentalist and this is the perfect job. I want to do something that makes a difference for our quality of life.”

HOSPITALITY WESTCHESTER AND FAIRFIELD COUNTY BUSINESS JOURNALS

Restaurant associations wrestle with issues facing the industry BY PETER KATZ pkatz@westfairinc.com

here were choruses of boos when New York state suddenly put an end to the takeout and delivery sale of liquor late in June. While restaurants and bars licensed by the State Liquor Authority had been allowed to sell beer as takeout and delivery items even before the Covid-19 pandemic, hard liquor could not be sold. As a financial relief measure during the Covid-19 state of emergency, temporary authority was granted for the sale of hard liquor via takeout and delivery. Then, on June 23, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo announced that the state of emergency that had been declared in March 2020 would be ending the next day. The State Liquor Authority posted a Twitter message: “Licensees please be advised that with the ending of our state of emergency and the return to pre-pandemic guidelines, the temporary pandemic-related privileges for to-go and delivery of alcoholic beverages will end after June 24.” A recent survey conducted on behalf of the New York State Restaurant Association

(NYSRA) found that 78% of New Yorkers favor permanently allowing alcoholic beverages to be bought with takeout or delivery orders from restaurants. Melissa Fleischut, president and CEO of the NYSRA, said, “Throughout the Covid19 pandemic, struggling restaurants were able to boost sales and keep doors open through the ability of selling alcoholic beverages with their orders. “The same relief that was once needed at the height of the pandemic is still needed now. The restaurant industry needs stability now more than ever and by making ‘alcohol-to-go’ permanent we can encourage a strong recovery. It’s popular with operators and customers alike. The numbers don’t lie.” Survey results for Westchester were shown along with suburban counties Rockland, Nassau and Suffolk. A total of 83% of the respondents in those counties said they were in favor of continued takeout and delivery liquor sales. That compared with 81% in New York City who approved of the idea and 72% of upstate New York respondents. The data revealed that respondents

who ordered alcohol-to-go did so an average of 13 times during the year leading up to the survey. The survey found that 91% of the respondents believe restaurants are an important part of their community’s character and local economy and they believe that helping the restaurant industry should be a high priority for state leaders. The National Restaurant Association has identified three major issues members are facing nationwide. “Following months of uncertainty, restaurants are continuing to rebound from the devastating effects of the pandemic, but the combination of rising food costs, supply issues and labor shortages are still plaguing businesses,” the National Restaurant Association said. It said an analysis that it completed of Bureau of Labor Statistics data for June indicated that food prices were up 9.6% since June 2020. “Food inflation is definitely heating up,” said Hudson Riehle, senior vice president of research for the association. “Menu prices in June were up 3.9% on a year-to-date basis, essentially marking it FCBJ

as the highest growth rate since 2009, and wholesale food costs are up 4.1% year-todate, the highest since 2014.” Riehle pointed out that some restaurants are adjusting the items on their menus and cutting portion sizes long with increasing menu prices. The National Restaurant Association quotes its commodities analyst John Barone as concluding that much of the reason for the price increases is short supply. At least since April and especially in June and July, consumers have been returning to restaurants while at the same time continuing to buy their own groceries. Food manufacturers haven’t been able to scale up production. “They can’t get the raw materials needed or the necessary labor to process them,” Barone said. “Because of this, they’re struggling to meet demand with tight supplies and, in some cases, outright shortages.” Another trouble spot for restaurants, Barone warns, is fryer oil. He said the price of soybean oil, a staple at restaurants, is already running at more than twice the five-year average and is expected to stay high. WCBJ

Restaurants getting creative with parking solutions post-pandemic BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

o say that the past 18 months have been challenging ones for the restaurant industry would be a laughable understatement. But even with Covid-19 (possibly) in retreat and dining establishments able to offer both indoor and outdoor service to an increasing number of patrons, a new problem has appeared for many of them — namely, parking. “There are places in Westport where I live, in Greenwich and in other towns where they’re now taking up almost two times their regular footprint,” Eric Bernheim, a managing partner and head of the hospitality practice at FLB Law in Westport, told the Business Journal. “The best approach for these restaurants is not to now turn around and limit outdoor dining,” he continued. “People have really enjoyed it — I think a lot of them almost expect it.” Along with booming takeout and delivery business, space is at a premium for the likes of such FLB clients as bartaco — which has locations in Stamford; Westport; and Port Chester, New York; — and Barcelona Wine Bar,

whose locations include Fairfield, Norwalk and Stamford. Bernheim said that for the most part it is up to the restaurants to come up with solutions to their parking problems. “It’s not that municipalities don’t want to help,” he said, “but they’re concerned about traffic flow and parking. “Regulations don’t always require parking for outdoor dining in terms of square footage,” Bernheim said. “But if you can provide parking solutions, why not do it?” Deals can be worked out with abutting office buildings, he noted — at least for dinner, when the 9-to-5 crowd has already gone home. “The restaurant would normally pay them a licensing fee and cover the insurance. You need to have indemnity in place so the lot owner doesn’t get sued if a restaurant patron falls down there.” With the hybrid work model still in effect at many companies, the attorney said, some restaurants may be able to take advantage of empty lots even during the day. “Even where my office is, in a 30,000-square-foot building, it was maybe 25% full even before Covid,” he said. Most office-building owners “are happy

to get a second source of revenue,” Bernheim said. He also said that, with so many New Yorkers flocking to Connecticut these days, “They’re looking for the same kind of experience they had in the city.” Even so, any time a potential customer has to walk more than a quarter-mile or so to their eating destination, there is the danger of their choosing someplace closer. Minus a nearby office lot, “You need to come up with creative ways” to accommodate cars,” he said. Suggestions include creating partnerships with ridesharing services such as Uber and Lyft to incentivize people to leave their cars at home and/or contracting with shuttle services to transport diners to and from off-site parking. Bernheim said that the entire parking issue may become moot soon enough. “Rideshare services are being used more, and we’ve all heard about the driverless car coming soon,” he said. “Already we’re seeing some developers not wanting to build large parking garages because of that. “Instead they’re thinking of putting a lot of money into an Uber account so that people don’t have to drive.”

Covid wipes out 10 years of job growth for hotels BY PETER KATZ pkatz@westfairinc.com

he American Hotel & Lodging Association (AHLA) has issued a midyear report on the shape of the industry and key among the findings is that the pandemic has wiped out 10 years of job growth in the industry. The report paints an overall picture of an industry that has been badly hurt in other ways by Covid. Key findings include: • Nearly 500,000 hotel jobs will be lost by the end of the year; • There has been a nearly $44 billion decline in room revenues compared with 2019; • States and localities have lost $20 billion in state and local tax revenues since 2019; and • There has been a 10% drop in average hotel occupancy since 2019. The AHLA said that in 2019, U.S. hotels directly employed more than 2.3 million people. They are expected to end 2021 with 1.86 million employees, down nearly 500,000 or 20% from 2019 levels. Recovery to 2019 employment is not expected until at least 2023.

In New York state, according to the AHLA, there were 116,106 people employed in hotel jobs directly associated with running the properties and not in restaurants, retail attractions hotel suppliers and similar categories. The pandemic cut that to 69,088. In Connecticut, the 26,225 hotel jobs before the pandemic had dropped to 16,560 in 2020. The report states that hotel occupancy for 2021 is expected to average 55.9%, which would be up slightly from earlier projections of 52.5% but still a 10% drop from 2019 levels. Before the pandemic, hotels were generating more than $169 billion in annual room revenues, according to the association. During 2020, that plummeted to $85.5 billion. It is expected to partially rebound this year, but only to $125.3 billion Chip Rogers, the president and CEO of AHLA, said, “Despite an uptick in leisure travel, midway through 2021 we’re still seeing that the road to a full recovery for America’s hotels is long and uneven. “These findings show the economic devastation still facing hotel markets and underscore the need for targeted relief from Congress for hotel workers and small businesses.”

RIDGE CREST RECEIVES AWARD Meadow Ridge, a Benchmark continuing care retirement community in Redding was awarded the Wound Care Specialists Center of Distinction Award for its Ridge Crest at Meadow Ridge, the community’s skilled nursing and rehabilitation wing. Ridge Crest was evaluated and found to have superior wound healing care and patient results over the past year, including a less than 30-day average healing rate and staff dedicated to wound care, healing and ongoing evaluation. “Deep, post-surgical wounds in older people are subject to high rates of infection, which can be very serious,” said Chris Barstein, campus executive director of Meadow Ridge. Jonathan Brenes, COO of Wound Care Specialists, said “We are honored to award Ridge Crest for their continued superiority in wound healing. Our partnership with Ridge Crest has demonstrated a long commitment to advancing the treatment, healing and prevention of acute and chronic wounds.” For three years running, Ridge Crest has been selected as a “U.S. News & World Report Best Nursing Home.” In 2020, only 420 facilities, including Ridge Crest, received the top rating for both short-term rehabilitation and long-term skilled nursing care. Ridge Crest is part of a continuum of care offered on the Meadow Ridge campus. In addition to short- and longterm care, Meadow Ridge residents also have access to independent living and assisted living.

NEW MEMBERS ADDED TO WJCS BOARD OF DIRECTORS

ENT and Allergy Associates LLP (ENTA) in Tarrytown recently announced that starting Sept. 7 all physicians, staff and employees are required to be fully vaccinated against Covid-19, which continues to impact the country. With the emergence of the Delta Variant, ENTA’s board determined that mandatory vaccinations are the best way to keep employees and patients protected against ongoing and future outbreaks. Therefore, in a move that is becoming increasingly prevalent among health care groups, universities and other companies, employees and physicians must be fully vaccinated against Covid-19 in order to provide a safe environment for everyone who walks through their doors. As health care professionals in the fields of otolaryngology (ear, nose and throat) and allergy/immunology, ENTA’s physicians and staff are at an increased risk of being exposed to and contracting the virus. “Covid-19 is something we have taken extremely seriously throughout the pandemic and this decision is not one that we reached lightly,” said ENTA CEO Bob Glazer. “…we are adopting this policy to safeguard the health of our employees and their families, our patients and visitors and the community at large from infectious diseases whose impact and spread can be reduced by vaccinations.” “These vaccines have been researched, tested and proven effective. We want every employee to be able to walk into work knowing that we’ve done everything we can to promote and foster a safe and healthy working environment. Mandatory vaccines are a large part of that,” said ENTA President Robert Green, M.D.

NEW STATEWIDE LITERACY PROGRAM LAUNCHED The New York State PTA and the United Way of Westchester and Putnam in White Plains have partnered with Learning Ovations, an Irvine, California-based early literacy support company, to launch a statewide literacy program titled “Reading Checkup,” a community-based program that encourages reading-skills development at home. Reading Checkup, designed for children in grades K through third grade, requires a child to complete two online quizzes, then parents/caretakers receive evidence-based recommendations for specific reading skills to focus on at home, while choosing from targeted activities that meet the child’s needs.

“NYS PTA is committed to supporting all children across New York state and we know that literacy continues to be the key to student success,” said NYS PTA President Dana Platin. “ “Our research shows that there are two critical elements in supporting a child’s reading development: you must know what their individual instructional needs are and then precisely match the type of instruction and the time spent to those needs,” said Jay Connor, CEO and founder of Learning Ovations. Established in 1897, NYS PTA is one of the oldest and largest child advocacy associations in New York state. For more, visit nyspta.org.

length of 1.11 days stay and an infection rate of 0.72%, beating the national average of 1%. “This is a testament to the Connecticut Orthopedic Institute’s dedication, vision and commitment to our communities and to providing the highest-quality care to the people we serve,” said Jeffrey A. Flaks, Hartford HealthCare resident and CEO. “…We have created a destination center for specialized, comprehensive care and I am proud of the exceptional

joint replacement services our team offers this community,” said Hartford HealthCare Fairfield Region President William M. Jennings. The advanced certification, awarded for a two-year period, was developed in response to the growing number of patients undergoing total hip or total knee replacement surgery, as well as the increased focus on clinical care for pain management, quality-of-life issues, functional limitation in mobility and the return to normal daily activities.
