Court ruling gives NYS review power in Indian Point relicensing BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com

A know what the federal government might do. We’re all sitting on needles and pins.” “If there’s any future change, we will adapt and evolve with the best interest of our customers at the core of every decision we make,” said Access Health CT CEO James Wadleigh. “As for right now, it’s business as usual.” One potentially bright spot has been Trump’s apparent backing off from his plans to completely get rid of Obamacare; since his election, he has indicated that he may keep the law’s provisions that allow children up to age 26 to remain on their parents’ plan and prevent insurance companies from denying coverage due to pre-existing conditions. “That’s a good sign,” Wyman said. Access Health is seeing unparalleled activity with its fourth annual enrollment period, which began Nov. 1 and runs

unanimous decision in New York’s highest court will likely deal a blow to efforts by the owners of Indian Point Energy Center to relicense its two nuclear reactors in Buchanan. The state Court of Appeals on Nov. 21 ruled against Indian Point owner Entergy Corp. and said the company was not exempt from a review by the state Department of State to ensure that Entergy’s federal license renewal was consistent with New York’s Coastal Management Program. Entergy had argued it was not subject to the state’s coastal regulations, as they took effect after the reactors were already running. The court ruling settles a back-andforth legal battle that had been bouncing around state courts for three years. A state Supreme Court judge in late 2013 ruled that Entergy’s federal license renewal application was not exempt from review for its consistency with coastal management policies. But that lower court ruling was reversed one year later by a state Appellate Division judge in favor of Entergy. The state appealed that decision and now the state Court of Appeals has ruled in its favor. The court found that Indian Point’s reactors failed to meet any of the exemptions that would remove the state’s right to review compliance with its Coastal Management Program. The court’s decision may further complicate the ongoing relicensing process by the federal government for the Buchanan plant’s two reactors. Indian Point’s Unit 2 reactor’s license expired in 2013 and Unit 3 in 2015. The reactors have continued operating while the federal Nuclear Regulatory

he state of Access Health CT, Connecticut’s health insurance exchange, is uncertain — but that doesn’t mean it’s necessarily in trouble. As the Business Journal previously reported, Lt. Gov. Nancy Wyman, who also serves as chairperson of the Access Health CT board, released a statement assuring

consumers that the exchange was still in business and would continue to operate until further notice. The statement came in the wake of the election of Presidentelect Donald Trump, who during the campaign repeatedly said he would “repeal and replace” the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, the massive legislation under which the exchange was created. Speaking to the Business Journal more recently, Wyman doubled down on her earlier declaration, adding: “We honestly don’t

Sacred Heart University to buy former GE headquarters for $31.5 million BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

acred Heart University announced on Nov. 21 that it had entered into an agreement with General Electric to buy its 66-acre former global headquarters in Fairfield for $31.5 million. GE in January announced it would relocate its headquarters to the Boston waterfront. The company opened its temporary Boston headquarters in August and completed its move of employees from Connecticut in October. “With this property, SHU has a unique opportunity to contribute to education, research, health care and the community,” college President John J. Petillo said in a statement. “It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us, and it also reflects our longstanding relationship with GE that includes former GE CEO Jack Welch, for whom our College of Business is named.” “We are pleased to sell our property to a world-class local university and are happy that the campus will continue to be

Plans call for SHU to expand its new School of Computing, which is focused on computer engineering, computer gaming and cybersecurity, and to develop programs in STEM fields such as health and life sciences, science and technology. The university will also move certain elements of its Jack Welch College of Business to the new campus, including its hospitality management program that will make use of facilities both at the GE site and at the Great River Golf Club. The university also plans to move its College of Education, art and design program and its business office to the GE site, eliminating the need to rent space in Trumbull. Future plans could include a performing arts space and recital hall, a swimming pool and running trails and incubator space that would allow students, in conjunction with investors and area businesses, to develop ideas for new products and programs. “Programs developed by SHU in the next four years could add 450 students and 50 to 60 new faculty and staff,” Kinney » SACRED HEART, page 30

n an effort to boost foot traffic to its brick-and-mortar shops and keep customers in store longer, Barnes & Noble Inc. opened its first concept store in Eastchester this month, a bookstore complete with a restaurant and bar. After construction delays pushed the store’s opening back from a planned October unveiling, the nation’s largest retail bookseller opened the 22,000-square-foot store at 680 White Plains Road to the public on Nov. 22. Situated within the Vernon Hills Shopping Center in a storefront that once housed Borders, the New York-based company’s new shop is home to the Barnes & Noble Kitchen. The 2,600-square-foot kitchen features a bar, lounge area and countertop seating along with traditional table service. “If you just want a cup of coffee and a scone and you want to sit by yourself with your laptop, you’re good,” said Jaime Carey, the recently appointed president of Barnes and Noble’s development and restaurant group who previously served as the company’s chief operating officer. “If you want to come in and have a full meal, that’s good too. If you want to have a glass of wine and sit in the lounge, you can do that too. So it’s a varied space.”

The restaurant’s full menu serves breakfast, lunch and dinner and features everything from beef burgers to artisan cheese and craft beer to wine by the bottle. Carey said that adding select alcoholic beverages to the kitchen’s list of offerings was essential to the store’s success. “If you’re going to create a place where you expect people to come have dinner and lunch, then having wine or some local craft beers just rounds out that experience,” he said. “We didn’t want to create a food and beverage experience that was just kind of half-way.” The store also boasts a 3,000-squarefoot outdoor patio, complete with a stone fire pit, outdoor seating and a bocce ball court. The store plans to host book signings, special events, concerts and wine and food tastings. The store is also introducing a series of technological advances to help customers find exactly what they’re looking for. iPad tablets scattered throughout the store can be used to pinpoint where a particular item is within the bookstore. Customers can also text any questions or comments to store staff via the iPads or check out without needing to wait in line at the checkout. The additions to the bookseller’s typWCBJ

ical brick-and-mortar stores are aimed at enhancing the customer experience and making Barnes & Noble a destination. “We really are hoping this is a place that people come and relax and enjoy themselves,” said David Deason, vice president of development at Barnes & Noble. The Eastchester store is the first of four concept stores to open nationwide. Other stores will open in the coming months in Edina, Minnesota, Folsom, California and Loudoun, Virginia. The new eateries will expand on Barnes & Noble’s existing cafes, which typically offer Starbucks drinks and snacks and generate roughly 10 percent of each store’s business. Though declining to give specific projections, Carey said the expanded eateries are expected to perform “significantly better” and account for a larger piece of revenues. Barnes & Noble executives are hopeful that these concept stores will provide a turnaround from the dismal figures the company has posted in recent years. On the same day the new Eastchester store opened to the public, the company reported a 4 percent decline in sales year-overyear and a $20.4 million loss for the second quarter.

fter decades of dreams and brainstorming sessions, three brothers from Fairfield and Westchester counties are spearheading the revival of a business venture first started by their great-grandfather more than a century ago. Siegel Bros. Marketplace and Siegel Bros. Wine & Spirits will soon open along Moger Avenue in Mount Kisco. The counterpart storefronts are the products of years of planning by brothers Doug, David and Jeremy Nevins and their father, Bruce Nevins. The original Siegel’s store was opened by Bruce’s grandfather, Abram Siegel, who launched the venture after fleeing a czarist regime in Russia in the early 1900s. The patriarch of the family labored in factories for years to save enough money to bring his wife and daughter to join him in the U.S. Drawing on skills he learned from his family in Russia, Siegel was able to open his own butcher shop and slaughterhouse, Siegel’s Meats, Poultry and Livestock, in Woodbine, N.J. In the ensuing decades, the family business was passed on to Abram’s sons and grandchildren and Siegel’s evolved into Siegel Bros. Butchers and Market. “I grew up as a kid working in my grandfather’s butcher shop and all through high school, in the summers, I worked in the market in Siegel Bros.,” said Bruce Nevins. “It’s a great heritage that we’re really proud of and it’s a great opportunity for the next generation.” The Nevins brothers, who grew up in Connecticut’s Ridgefield, also have fond memories of spending time in Siegel Bros. Though the business closed in the late 1980s, the Nevins family remained serial entrepreneurs and stayed close to its roots in the food and beverage industry. Bruce was drawn toward the wine industry and worked for 14 years as the owner of Hay Day Wine Shop in Ridgefield. Both Doug

and Jeremy followed in their father’s footsteps, operating the family’s retail stores Grand Harvest Wines in Grand Central Terminal and Wine Wise in Greenwich. Meanwhile, David graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park and made a name for himself on the Boston culinary scene before joining his family to open Osetra Oyster Bar and Fish House in South Norwalk. Ed Costa, a family friend with a background in hospitality, has also joined the venture. “Everyone’s got their particular expertise within the businesses, so being able to come together as a team and finding the right area, the right location, the right space, everything really worked out tremendously here,” Doug said. The family finally found that spot at 39 S. Moger Ave. in Mount Kisco. Because of the state’s liquor laws, the 2,500-square-foot market will sit adjacent to the 1,800-squarefoot wine and spirits shop at 41 S. Moger Ave. Both retail spaces are undergoing extensive renovations, though the wine shop will likely open later this year and the marketplace is set for a January opening. “It’s something we’ve been talking about for 20-plus years, but it’s always been the challenge of finding the right spot, the right location and the right piece of real estate that we could do it,” Jeremy said. “Mount Kisco is a great area. You have very affluent communities and food lovers, and it was the perfect time, the perfect place for us to jump on it.” Like the original Siegel’s, the marketplace will feature a butchery with 6-foot windows that will allow customers to watch the carving of meats sourced from New York and Pennsylvania. To oversee the butchery, the brothers brought on a close family friend, Don Myers, who has more than 20 years of experience in the industry. “A lot of places say they butcher; they don’t. They buy it, it’s pre-cut. We’re doing the real thing,” Jeremy Nevins said. In the store’s kitchen, David will prepare a variety of to-go foods, from soups and sandwiches to “fun things” like fried clams and roasted pig heads. The company will also offer a catering menu for parties or special events. “I see it as a carnival for food lovers,” David said. “Somewhere they want to go and say, ‘I can’t wait to see what Siegel Bros. has today, because every time we’ve been there, it’s something new.’” Across the sidewalk from the marketplace, Siegel Bros. Wine & Spirits will offer tastings to pair with those prepared food offerings. “It’s something that nobody else can say they can do,” Jeremy said. The brothers take the Siegel » SIEGEL BROS., page 7

Rivertowns Square seeks grocer in Mrs. Green’s place BY ALEESIA FORNI

aforni@westfairinc.com

he financial woes of Mrs. Green's Natural Markets have left a nearly completed 18,000-square-foot space without a tenant in the $130 million Rivertowns Square development in Dobbs Ferry. Announcing the closing of all but five Mrs. Green’s stores, company officials this month said plans to open a store in the fast-rising Rivertowns Square mixeduse development off the Saw Mill River Parkway would be scrapped. Corey Rabin, co-developer of Rivertowns Square, said Mrs. Green’s worsening financial situation prompted Saber Dobbs Ferry LLC, the joint venture between Rabin’s Dobbs Ferry Capital Partners LLC and developer Martin Berger’s Armonkbased Saber Real Estate Advisors, to terminate its lease with the grocery chain., Despite the collapse of the deal, Rabin said he is optimistic about the prospects for the unfilled retail space. “We’re pretty confident that it will be a grocer,” he said. “There are other uses that it could be made for, but I think it wants to be groceries.” Rabin said that when marketing the property four years ago, several grocery stores were interested in leasing the space. He said his company will reach out to those

same grocers along with bringing in “some new faces.” “It should be much, much easier than it was in 2012, because now we have a facility you can touch and feel,” he said. Regarding a new grocery tenant, “It wouldn’t be a shock to me to have a deal done by the end of the year,” Rabin said. He said all other tenants, including a luxury movie theater complex, are expected open their doors during the first quarter of next year. Rabin said the space is tenant-ready, adding that “if Mrs. This Mrs. Green’s Natural Market store in Rye closed this month. Green’s was the com-

name and the legacy that comes along with it seriously. Each pledges to be an on-site, hands-on business owner. “One thing that you will see is that we’ll always be here,” Jeremy said. “My kids will be here all the time. They can’t wait.” The market’s decor will pay homage to the stores’ legacy, with vintage photographs of the brothers’ uncles working with their cattle and the family patriarch, Abram Siegel, manning his shop. “We want to share (the history) with everybody, to show them that this is real legacy, this is real heritage of a family tradition,” Jeremy said. Do the brothers feel the extra weight on their shoulders of carrying on the legacy of generations before them? Not so much, they say. “I think it’s not pressure, it’s pride,” Jeremy said. “There’s a lot of pride here. And I think they’re all looking down on us with big grins.”

pany that we thought they were, they would have already pulled permits to do interior fit-outs.” After supply shortages were widely reported at several Mrs. Green’s locations earlier this month, the company, a subsidiary of Natural Markets Food Group in Irvington, announced that CEO Pat Brown would step down. The company also said it would close its locations in Rye, Tarrytown, Manhattan's West Village and in Fairfield and Stamford in Connecticut. Company officials said Mrs. Green’s plans to focus its business on its stores in Yorktown Heights, Briarcliff Manor, Mount Kisco, Eastchester and Larchmont. Natural Markets Food Group is owned by Toronto-based equity firm Catalyst Capital Group Inc. Catalyst operates the Planet Organic and Richtree Natural Market Canadian grocery chains under the Natural Markets Food Group name as well.

through Jan. 31, 2017. “What we have produced in the first three weeks this year we produced in five weeks last year,” Access Health CT Outreach Director Emanuela Cebert said at the organization’s board of directors meeting in Hartford on Nov. 17. From Nov. 1 to Nov. 15, Access Health CT received 8,800 new applications, 70,000 current application updates and 61,700 phone calls asking for information about health insurance coverage. “Enrollment has been much quicker than we’d expected,” Wyman said, “which means there will be fewer people trying to get in under the wire. We’re really excited about that.” She noted that customers need to enroll by Dec. 15 to make sure there is no gap in their coverage. The lieutenant governor cited a number of factors for the quicker-than-expected pace of enrollment. “We’ve done a better job of getting the word out,” she said, noting that AHCT has invested in advertising both in print and online. “We’ve also worked through some of the problems we had in the past, so that there are very few

Commission reviews Entergy’s application for a 20-year renewal. In November 2015, the state Department of State denied a coastal consistency certification to Entergy, claiming the nuclear plant did not comply with the state’s Coastal Management Program, particularly its protections for coastal ecosystems. Entergy, however, has argued that it actually withdrew that application a year before the state’s ruling, saying it would refile after possible updates to the NRC’s Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement. Jerry Nappi, a spokesman for Entergy, said the company is still reviewing its options following the decision. Those could include refiling the Coastal Zone Management program that Entergy previously withdrew, he said. “Notwithstanding this court decision, we continue to believe we will ultimately be successful in obtaining a (Coastal Zone Management) permit and relicensing Indian Point,” Nappi said in a statement.

complaints. During the first year people had a hard time understanding how to navigate our systems, but now they know what to do and how to choose among the different plans that are available.” “And people know now that they can go straight to one of our physical locations, our call center or online and can get any questions they might have answered quickly,” she added. Access Health operates enrollment centers at Stamford’s Ferguson Library at 1 Public Library Plaza, as well as in New Britain, New Haven, East Hartford and Norwich. “The need for insurance (under the Affordable Care Act has been pretty well publicized by this point, and having access to affordable, high-quality health care for a change is something that’s been very well received.” She said that all the talk about the future of the Affordable Care Act during the presidential campaign probably helped as well. From the Nov. 1 start of open enrollment through Nov. 17, Access Health had recorded 119,283 unique website visitors, answered 72,536 phone inquiries and added a total of 7,043 new customers. Since its inception four years ago, the insurance exchange enrolled more than 850,000

“The facility continues to safely operate in a manner that is fully protective of the Hudson River and in compliance with state and federal law.” Gov. Andrew Cuomo has been an outspoken opponent of the plant’s relicensing, saying it poses a threat to the densely populated region. He used Monday’s decision to restate that opposition. “The Department of State already concluded that the Indian Point relicensing application is inconsistent with New York’s long-standing Coastal Management Program requirements and will continue to use this program to protect New York’s coastline,” Cuomo said. “Indian Point is antiquated and does not belong on the Hudson River in close proximity to New York City, where it poses a threat not only to the coastal resources and uses of the river, but to millions of New Yorkers living and working in the surrounding community.” The Ossining-based environmental group Riverkeeper also heralded the decision, calling Nov. 21 a “monumental day.” “This decision effectively stops the Nuclear Regulatory Commission from relicensing Indian Point,” WCBJ

Connecticut residents, Wyman said. The exchange also partners with the Connecticut Department of Social Services for eligibility and enrollment in the state’s Medicaid program. A total of 101,239 residents have enrolled in Medicaid through Access Health for coverage in 2016 and 2017, according to Wadleigh. Wyman noted that Trump has also indicated he may distribute Medicaid and Medicare dollars to states as block grants to help balance the federal budget, which would otherwise balloon if his proposed tax cuts — estimated at between $3.7 trillion and $5.9 trillion over the next 10 years – go into effect. Replacing Medicare guaranteed coverage for senior citizens with a voucher system in which seniors would shop for private insurance, is also apparently on the table. Yet the president-elect also said during the campaign: “Abolishing Medicare, I don’t think you’ll get away with that one. It’s actually a program that’s worked. It’s a program that some people love, actually.” Block grants for Medicaid and Medicare “would hurt states like ours,” Wyman said, “and it would not be helping people out.” Although Access Health CT this year lost both United Healthcare and HealthyCT

Riverkeeper President Paul Gallay said. Meanwhile, Entergy has brought a similar fight to the federal courts. In January, the company filed a complaint in federal court in Albany challenging the state’s objection to the relicensing of

Indian Point’s reactors because the plant’s operation is not consistent with the state’s coastal management program. The lawsuit claims the state does not have jurisdiction to rule on matters related to nuclear safety. The matter is still pending in federal court.

True Local Means Exceeding Your Expectations. Business professionals who understand the community. “We are a non-profit housing organization that has been in business for over 40 years, and PCSB Bank has been a critical partner in our recent expansion and development. They are a local community bank who stepped up and met our complex financial needs, but who also fully understands the regulations we must follow. And the fact that they understand the people and demographics of our communities gives them a great advantage. That is the type of service and attention I cannot get from even the largest bank in the area. We can attribute our recent growth directly to our relationship with PCSB Bank, they are always right there without the red tape or delay I have found with other lenders.”

rooftop garden. The center will treat breast, lung, gynecologic, head and neck, gastrointestinal, prostate and bladder, blood and skin cancers. Lawrence Hospital in 2014 joined the NewYork-Presbyterian Regional Hospital Network, which includes Columbia University Medical Center in Manhattan. The new pavilion is the Bronxville hospital’s latest major capital project following the completion and opening of a cardiac catheterization laboratory in April 2015. Hospital officials said the oncology pavilion will also benefit from its tie-in to the NewYork-Presbyterian network, which includes access to clinical trials at Columbia University Medical Center and a physician team of cancer specialists in the New York-Presbyterian Medical Group Westchester and ColumbiaDoctors faculty practices. “It connects NewYork-Presbyterian and its Manhattan flagships with Westchester,” Corwin told the Business Journal following the ribbon cutting. “Access to clinical trials, access to new medications, the ability for patients to receive care closer to their home. I think it fits all the reasonable things that we would like to see.” A hospital spokesperson said staffing numbers at the oncology pavilion have not been determined. Lawrence Hospital in 2008 was awarded a certificate of need by the state Department of Health for the cancer center. The project was approved by the Bronxville Planning Board in December 2012 and construction started in July 2013. The project was funded through a combination of borrowing, fundraising and hospital equity. The center is coming online in a competitive health care market in the county, particularly for treatment of cancers. Both White Plains Hospital and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in West Harrison have opened new multimillion-dollar outpatient cancer centers in the past two years. “Unfortunately there’s a lot of cancer, so we feel it was extremely important for us to have a cancer center as part of our health system that was based in our hospital in Westchester, both here at Lawrence and also (at NewYorkPresbyterian/Hudson Valley Hospital in Cortlandt Manor ) in the northern part of county,” Corwin said. “I wish there weren’t as much cancer, but there is, and we thought there was a real need for this in the community.” The 288-bed community hospital in Bronxville was founded in 1909.

Universal American to be acquired by WellCare Health Plans

niversal American Corp., a publicly traded health care benefits company in White Plains that specializes in Medicare Advantage plans, will be acquired by WellCare Health Plans, Inc. of Tampa in an all-cash deal with an equity value of about $600 million, the companies recently announced. In a deal expected to close in the second quarter of 2017, WellCare, a provider of government-sponsored managed care services, will pay $10 per share of Universal common stock. The share price represents a 34 percent premium to Universal American’s 60-day volume-weighted average closing stock price as of Nov. 16. WellCare said it expects to retire Universal American’s outstanding preferred shares shortly after closing. With the merger, Universal American’s outstanding convertible notes will become convertible and holders will have the right to require their notes to be repurchased. With Universal American’s preferred shares and convertible debt retired, the transaction would be worth approximately $800 million, according to the companies. In the announcement, WellCare’s CEO Ken Burdick said the acquisition is “a very good strategic fit for WellCare,” strengthening its business in two key markets, New York and Texas, and giving it a presence in Maine. WellCare serves approximately 3.8 million Medicare and Medicaid plan members nationwide. The acquisition is expected to add approximately 65,000 Medicare Advantage members in the HoustonBeaumont area of Texas and about 14,000 members in the Northeast, primarily in New York. Universal American also partners with health care providers in Accountable Care Organizations in 11 states, six of which are WellCare Medicare Advantage markets. In acquiring Universal American, Burdick said WellCare also plans “to leverage their core competency in physician engagement to strategically develop and grow value-based provider relationships.” Universal American Chairman and CEO Richard A. Barasch said the deal demonstrated WellCare’s commitment to Universal’s trademarked collaborative model “in which we work closely with our physician partners to improve quality and lower costs for Medicare beneficiaries.” WellCare said it expects annual synergies of approximately $25 million to $30 million by 2019 from the merger. The deal is expected to produce 60 cents to 70 cents of accretion to WellCare’s adjusted earnings per share in the first year after

closing and 70 cents to 80 cents in the second year, excluding one-time transaction costs and integration costs. The acquisition is subject to approvals by regulators and Universal American stockholders. Universal American in 2011 sold its Medicare prescription-drug plan business to CVS Caremark for $1.25 billion. The company in 2012 paid $227.5 million to acquire APS Healthcare Inc., a specialty health man-

agement and services company based in White Plains. Universal American this summer closed on the sale of its Traditional Insurance business to Nassau Reinsurance Group Holdings L.P. for $30.5 million in cash and Nassau’s contribution of more than $20 million of new equity capital. —John Golden ◀◀ Richard Barbasch

SABRA DIPPING CO. LLC HAS VOLUNTARILY recalled a variety of its hummus products after Listeria monocytogenes was identified at the manufacturing facility, though not in tested finished products. Sabra, which is owned in part by Purchase-based PepsiCo Inc. and is headquartered in White Plains, said it recalled the product “out of an abundance of caution.” The recall applies to any product produced before Nov. 8. Consumers are urged to discard any product with a “Best Before” date up through Jan. 23, 2017. The company is offering reimbursement for affected products. “We are taking action because consumer safety is a top priority,” Sabra CEO Shali Shalit Shoval said in a statement posted on the company’s website. Listerosis, the infection caused by Listeria, can be especially dangerous for pregnant women. It can cause miscarriage, stillbirth, premature delivery or life-threatening infection of the newborn, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. For other adults, symptoms include headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance, fever and muscle aches. Sabra underwent a similar recall in 2015, when it pulled 30,000 cases of its classic hummus product because of possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination. The recall does not apply to Sabra’s Organic Hummus or Guacamole, Sabra Salsa or Sabra Greek Yogurt Dips, according to a notice from the FDA. The full list of recalled products is posted on the FDA website. Sabra is a joint-venture business of the Frito-Lay North America division of PepsiCo and Strauss Ltd., an affiliate of Strauss Group, Israel’s second-largest food and beverage company. Sabra signed a fiveyear lease in May and expanded to 36,345 square feet of headquarters space at 777 Westchester Ave. in The Exchange, owned by Normandy Real Estate Partners.

REGENERON LEADERS SHARE ENTREPRENEUR OF YEAR AWARD TWO FOUNDING PHYSICIANS AND SCIENTISTS leading Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc., Dr. Leonard Schleifer and Dr. George Yancopoulos, have been named the Ernst & Young Entrepreneurs of the Year 2016 National Award Winners in life sciences, the Westchester-based biotechnology company and state’s largest biotech employer announced today.

Schleifer, who is founder, president and CEO of Regeneron, and Yancopoulos, the publicly traded company’s founding scientist and chief scientific officer and president of Regeneron Laboratories, were chosen by a panel of independent judges from more than 250 regional award recipients. The EY Entrepreneur of the Year Award recognizes leaders and visionaries who demonstrate innovation, financial success and personal commitment as they create and build world-class businesses. “Even now, as the company has grown to over 5,000 employees, Len and George continue to lead with a fierce entrepreneurial spirit and a willingness to do things differently,” said Dr. P. Roy Vagelos, chairman of the Regeneron board of directors. “This spirit has enabled the Regeneron team to bring important medicines to people in need and to advance a promising pipeline of therapies for serious diseases.” Headquartered at The Landmark at Eastview life sciences campus in the towns of Greenburgh and Mount Pleasant, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals in October was named the world’s number one biopharmaceutical employer by Science magazine in its annual Top Employers Survey. Regeneron has ranked first in the survey in four of the past six years and was ranked second in 2015 and 2011. Regeneron officials in September announced the company will venture into real estate development with plans to build a roughly 1 million-square-foot research and development campus on a portion of an undeveloped 100-acre parcel adjoining the Landmark at Eastview campus in Greenburgh.

NEW YORK LIFE TO LAY OFF 45 IN WESTCHESTER NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE CO. WILL lay off 45 workers at its facility near Sleepy Hollow early next year. The jobs are being outsourced, according to a state Department of Labor notice. The jobs are described as IT and finance positions. The layoffs will begin on Feb. 17. The Fortune 100 company is “partnering with select companies who have unique capabilities that enable us to better serve our customers,” spokesman Jason Weinzimer said. On Nov. 16, New York Life, the nation’s largest mutual life insurer, announced that it expects to pay participating policy owners a record dividend payout of $1.77 billion in 2017, an increase of 5.4 percent over what it expects to pay in 2016. The company employs more than 650 people in Westchester County, Weinzimer said, and is committed to remaining in the county, where it has had a significant presence since 2004.

TWO FAIRFIELD COMPANIES ON DELOITTE’S TECHNOLOGY FAST 500 LIST A PAIR OF FAIRFIELD COUNTY companies — Trumbull’s HealthPlanOne LLC and Norwalk’s etouches — are included on Deloitte’s 2016 Technology Fast 500 list, which ranks the fastest-growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences and energy technology companies in North America. Selection was based on percentage fiscal year revenue growth from 2012 to 2015. Overall, 2016 Technology Fast 500 companies achieved revenue growth rang-

ing from 121 percent to 66,661 percent in the 2012-15 period, with a median growth of 290 percent. HealthPlanOne, an internet marketing and member acquisition company serving the health care and insurance industries, came in 357th, with a growth rate of 199 percent, while event management software maker etouches placed 461st by growing by 132 percent. Five other Connecticut companies also made the list, which was headed by Pasadena, California’s Loot Crate, a subscription box service, that provides monthly boxes of “geek and gaming-related merchandise,” which posted the 66,661 percent growth. For the 21st consecutive year, there are more software companies on the Technology Fast 500 than any other single sector.

PANERA SUDDENLY CLOSES NEWTOWN STORE; DARIEN REPORTEDLY NEXT WHAT’S HAPPENING WITH PANERA BREAD, the popular fast casual restaurant chain, when it comes to Connecticut? The company isn’t saying, but without notice it closed its Newtown location on Nov. 16 and reportedly will shutter its Darien location by the end of the year. The moves do not seem to reflect trouble at the Kirkwood, Missouri-based firm: last month it reported third-quarter earnings of $684.2 million, compared with $664.7 million in the year-ago period. It also reiterated its targeted range for fiscal 2016 company-owned comparable net bakery-cafe sales growth of 4 to 5 percent. As of Sept. 27, Panera operated 903 company-owned stores and 1,121 franchise-operated outlets. The company said same-store sales rose 3.4 percent in the period, while franchise-operated store sales were up 0.2 percent. System wide comparable net bakery-cafe sales rose 1.7 percent from a year ago. “Panera is years ahead in our efforts and we believe we are well positioned for long-term success,” Chairman and CEO Ron Shaich said. The Newtown location in Sand Hill Plaza at 228 S. Main St. appeared to be doing steady business, as has the Darien outlet at 1063 Boston Post Road. Greenwich Manor LLC, which owns the Darien property, has reportedly been informed that Panera does not plan to renew its lease when it expires at the end of December. Calls to the company were not returned. Other county locations include Brookfield, Danbury, Norwalk, Shelton, Trumbull and Westport.

MTA ADDING UP TO 94 NEW CARS TO NEW HAVEN LINE THE METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY BOARD has authorized between 60 and 94 new M8 rail cars for Metro-North Railroad’s New Haven Line. The cars — the

first of which are scheduled to enter service in three years — would allow the railroad to lengthen rush hour trains, retire its last 36 older M2 cars, increase safety and have flexibility to increase train service in the years ahead to meet ridership increases. The plan consists of a base order of 60 cars and an option for an additional 34 cars; the base order is expected to include the retrofitting of 10 existing M8 cars into café cars. The additional cars will supplement the 405 M8 cars already in use on the New Haven Line and New Canaan branch. Through September, the M8 cars averaged 460,277 miles between mechanical breakdowns, which the MTA said was the best rate for New Haven Line cars in decades and 53 percent above the railroad’s goal for the cars. The M8 coach cars for use on the New Haven Line are funded 65 percent by the state and 35 percent by the MTA Capital Program. M8 Café cars are funded entirely by the state.

CT INSURANCE DEPARTMENT DEBUTS PAYMENT PORTAL THE CONNECTICUT INSURANCE DEPARTMENT HAS added a portal to its website that will enable licensees to conduct online financial transactions with the agency. Going forward, all producer requests for letters of certification and clearance letters will be processed through the portal, with the $26 fee made payable via credit card. The department stated that this will reduce the turnaround time from 10 business days to three business days. The portal will also become the sole transaction vehicle for the annual $450 assessment for licensed bail bondsmen. “We are very pleased to offer this business-friendly tool, a direct result of the LEAN processes we have adopted to achieve greater regulatory efficiency,” said Insurance Commissioner Katharine L. Wade. “The new credit card portal significantly reduces the turnaround time for certain financial transactions, eliminates inefficient paper processing and postage costs, frees up staff for other duties and enhances the interactions our licensees have with their regulators.”

Addressing the audience of more than 200, Dufour said he invests in and coaches millennials to help them grow and achieve whatever is next, even if it is not working at his company. He said employers must realize how much value millennials bring to

their organizations. Westfair Communications, parent company of the Westchester and Fairfield County Business Journals, created the Milli Awards in 2015 to recognize professionals ages 21 to 34 working in both counties. “I used to think that as an employer I was inspiring and motivating new young employees. Not any longer; they are inspiring me. They cause me to ‘get with it,’ to adapt and be more eager to embrace all the exciting changes happening in the world and particularly our industry. We are all energized by the millennial spirit,” said Dee DelBello, publisher of Westfair Communications. Sponsors were Frankie & Fanucci’s, which held an after-party at its Mamaroneck location, Val’s Putnam Wines and Liquors, Neiman Marcus, which held an in-store event for winners, New York University Stern School of Business and Sacred Heart University. The event benefited Community Plates, a nonprofit whose mobile application, GoRescue, enables volunteers to connect with places that have leftover food and distribute it to those in need. Community Plates has delivered 10.5 million meals to people in Fairfield County since 2011. The event’s honorees represented all industries, from nonprofits to real estate companies and wealth management firms, and have shown dedication and vision at work and in their communities. Nominations were open to the public. A panel of three judges scored nominations and the top 11 millennials from each county were chosen. Two of the judges, Nicole Bryan, associate dean and director of business programs in the School of Professional and Continuing Studies on the Westchester Campus of Fordham University, and Lexie Leyman, communications and community affairs manager at The Dannon Co. and a winner of a 2015 Milli Award, presented the awards. The third judge was Melissa Mongillo, director of corporate services at McIntyre Group. Upon receiving their awards, winners answered one of three questions: where do you see yourself in 10 years; what has been your biggest inspiration or love, passion or money: what do you work for and why? They spoke of growing their companies, meaningful volunteer work and impres-

sionable experiences and mentors that shaped where they are today. Dufour said while millennials show their colleagues how the world works, older generations offer a valuable learning opportunity from their life and work experience, know-how on execution and strategy building and capital. “You can either help us lead that charge and get on board or watch us sprint by you,” Dufour said in his keynote.

Board consultants like North 60 biotech center plan BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

onsultants who have reviewed plans by Westchester County to lease land for a $1.2 billion mixed-use development featuring a biotechnology research center have given the project a green light. The North 60 lease, as the proposal has been called, has been in the works since 2012 when the county sought proposals to develop 60 acres on its Grasslands Reservation in the town of Mount Pleasant. The county’s concept is to create a research and development complex that will support Westchester’s growing medical and biotech industries. Fareri Associates LP, a prominent regional commercial and residential developer based in Greenwich, owns 20 acres next to the North 60 and won the rights to develop the property. Fareri has proposed building 3 million

square feet of space for medical offices, research, retail, restaurants, a hotel and a children’s museum. The first phase would include about 500,000 square feet of development. The whole project is expected to take at least 25 years to finish. The developer has estimated that the project will create 4,000 construction jobs and 8,000 permanent jobs, pay $7 million in annual rents to the county and generate $9 million a year in local real estate taxes. The site adjoins the campuses of Westchester Medical Center and New York Medical College. It is part of the 512-acre Grasslands Reservation that the county bought in 1915 to provide an isolated setting for a poor house, a penitentiary and a public hospital. The county operates a lab and research facility, a fire and emergency training center, a public works facility and a jail on the Grasslands tract. Fareri has an emotional connection to the campus. He raised money to build the Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital at

Westchester Medical Center in memory of his daughter who died in 1995 at age 13 after being bitten by a rabid bat near the family’s Greewich home. The North 60 is also near Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, the state’s largest biotechnology company, headquartered on The Landmark at Eastview life sciences campus near Tarrytown. Initially, the county would rent the land to the developer for $125,000 a year. As buildings are occupied, the county would receive from 3 percent to 6 percent of gross rental income, based on the type of space. The North 60 deal would run for 99 years. The county charter limits leases to 30 years, so legislators would have to hold a public hearing and amend the charter. The deal must first be approved by legislative committees and then by 12 out of 17 legislators. Fareri and Westchetser County Executive Robert P. Astorino have expressed hopes that the lease will be

approved by the end of the year. But the consulting may have pushed the process into next year. The county board is going over the lease “word by word” to incorporate the consultants’ recommendations, said Michael Kaplowitz, Democratic chairman of the Board of Legislators. Legislators are proceeding quickly, he said, but they also are under pressure to finish the 2017 county budget and a proposed airport lease by Dec. 27. “This is probably the biggest deal we’ll do in our careers here as legislators,” MaryJane Shimsky, Democratic chairwoman of the infrastructure committee, said at a Nov. 15 meeting to review the consultants’ reports. She expects her committee to vote on the lease in early January. The board hired Hudson Property Advisors in Mount Kisco to appraise the property.

The Trump economy: Boom or bust?

n election night, when it became apparent that Donald J. Trump was set to win, the futures indicated the stock market would take a steep decline at the open on Wednesday morning. Then, within hours, it rebounded, hitting record highs several times before leveling off and easing back a bit. That is essentially the mood of economists and analysts who are trying to figure out the impact of a Trump economic policy on the economy over the next four years. At the outset, it seems that the level of confidence in Trump's ability to bring real growth and break the sluggishness that has marked America's economy for years is mixed from analysts. Some say Trump’s stunning victory and Republican control of Congress probably won’t result in faster economic growth — a view contrary to those held by many on Wall Street. Even if Trump is to direct significant government spending into infra-

structure development, some analysts still believe a 1 percent to 2 percent growth forecast is the maximum we can hope for, due to other factors that impact growth, such as debt deleveraging. On the flip side, there are others who believe that putting money into projects that create jobs in the near future is a great way to stimulate the economy. Thus, a Trump program that gets right to work rebuilding roads, bridges, tunnels and airports could be fertile ground for upward and outward movement. The jobless claims figures released in mid-November show that there is improvement in the economy, particularly in the labor market, and should an increase in work orders put more money into the coffers of construction-related firms, infrastructure work could provide a solid foundation for further growth. Investing in roads and bridges alone could mean a major upsurge in work for companies that produce cement, asphalt, steel and all the construction equip-

ment that move these materials, so the effect of infrastructure spending could be similar to a ripple in a pond. There also are some early signs that there could be accelerated growth in the construction industry, with share prices at companies that do a significant amount of business with the government rising double what was expected of them this year. That doesn't necessarily have anything to

Some say Trump’s stunning victory and Republican control of Congress probably won’t result in faster economic growth — a view contrary to those held by many on Wall Street. do with the recent election or Trump's perceived economic recovery plan, as anyone who has driven over the original span of the Tappan Zee Bridge recently can attest. There is some ongoing infrastructure work in certain locales and there still is expected to be further growth in this sector, which would be good news for stocks as opposed to bonds. Nonetheless, there

are still many factors to consider in this scenario including inflation and increasing interest rates, so any decision on where to invest and how much should be made only after thorough research and due diligence. And while we're on the subject, we should not discount any possible changes in our trade status across the globe. Trump may follow through on his intent to renegotiate trade deals with our trading partners and the result of those renegotiated agreements won't be known for some time, although they certainly have the potential to change the equations on many international balance sheets. Regardless of the politics involved, change brings both challenges and rewards. There will be many opportunities to invest wisely as a result of this change, as much as future growth in specific sectors. The key to emerging on the plus side of this change is to be aware, alert and coolly professional in your decisions.

ASK ANDI

BY ANDI GRAY

A foundation for your marketing How we describe ourselves, what our goals are, what we do — describing those things are the biggest issues we face in marketing. We’re good at what we do, but we don’t spend a lot of time crowing about it or figuring out what to say that will get us leads. And we sure don’t know what results we need in marketing. How do we get started? THOUGHTS OF THE DAY: Know what you

do and what you don’t do. Explain what you do in words that the marketplace can identify with. Put the word out, so that the right people beat a path to your door. Make sure the marketplace can find you in quantity sufficient to meet your company’s growth goals. While you need to be aware of your competition, you want to promote what makes your company special. The more satisfied the customer is with the solutions he or she chooses, the stickier and more profitable that client is

likely to be. Make the job easy. Play to your strengths. Match your strengths to buyers who want exactly that. While you need to be aware of your competition, you want to promote what makes your company special. Look for the intersection of your company’s solutions with buyers’ needs and wants. The stronger the connection, typically the higher the price you can command. Start with research. The following are suggestions. If you’re not sure how to do any of this kind of research, hire someone who has experience and pay them to do the job for you. Guessing wastes time and may cost you in ways you don’t see, as you take on the wrong customers, don’t get enough leads or otherwise have misfires in marketing. What type of connection does your buyer desire? A relationship? A transaction? An experience? To solve problems, and if so, which problems? Transaction buyers tend to be more volatile and price sensitive. Experience and relationship buyers will pay additional if they believe their needs are being met. Value for solving problems depends on how costly and pervasive the customer perceives the problem to be. Pay attention to how buyers make

choices. Look for both conscious and subconscious motivations. When emotions come into play, both fear and desire impact price. Often fear is the greater motivator. Don’t be afraid to use it to your advantage. Want your marketplace to pay attention to you? Find out what they pay attention to and appeal to that. Are they looking for entertainment or education? Facts, conclusions or advice? Start to answer these questions by looking at how your desirable buyers get information today. Focus by testing messages on customers and prospects you know you want to get. One big mistake is trying to go too big, too broad, too fast and drawing in a lot of wasted attention from potential buyers who don’t value or want what your company can provide. Instead, try messages out on your best customers. Ask them if what you’re promoting resonates with them. What you’re looking for is customers to say, “That sounds just like me.” When it comes to marketing it is

incredibly important to know what you are trying to accomplish. Are you trying to get leads right now? Are you trying to educate and draw in a market that doesn’t know about you? Are you looking for information on what else the market wants? Write down a set of goals you’d like to accomplish in the next year, then relate marketing activities to those goals and start testing to find out which work best. LOOKING FOR A GOOD BOOK?

Three steps to a successful live video

f you’ve been keeping up with the latest social media trends, you have most likely come across live videos. You’ve heard about Facebook Live and Periscope. If you kept up with this new trend as it emerged from day 1, you probably heard of Meerkat as well. As more entrepreneurs wrote about the power of live video, the relatively new option rose to prominence as one of the biggest social media trends in 2016. With that said, live video is scary. There are no cuts. Everyone gets to see the raw product and without enough experience, real-time engagement from your audience can get overwhelming. In real time, you get to see people attending, liking, “hearting,” commenting, and leaving. Resist the temptation to get lost in these engagements because your live video quality will suffer. Live video is still a new way to promote

yourself on the web. Live video gives you the equivalent of a TV show. To be successful with live videos, follow these three steps. Step 1: Get people to show up. The closest we’ve ever had to live video was webinars. The webinar host gets to see the number of viewers listening live and receive comments in real time. All of the successful webinars I attended were promoted several days in advance. The first reason webinars get promoted early is because the host wants as many people listening as possible. The second reason is for confidence. You will perform very differently in a live video if you have one live viewer versus thousands. If you have less than 10 live attendants, you’ll feel a sharp emotional pain if live viewers leave. This pain negatively impacts your performance, which results in more live viewers tuning out. You can’t worry about these things during a live stream. Tell your social media audience and the people on your email list several days in advance about your live videos. Get some of your friends to watch you live. Ideally, do one live video every week at the same time so you can get consistent live viewers. Remember, live video is like hosting a

TV show. The most successful TV shows are always on at the same time each week. Step 2: Get the beginning right. For any live video, the beginning is the most important part. A strong beginning will keep your live viewers attentive. A bad start will result in live viewers leaving quickly, and that only gets worse as you see the number dwindle. Having an outline for the beginning of every live video will give you a significant advantage. By knowing your talking points in advance, you’ll have a much easier time saying what you need to say. That sentence is worth reading again because it doesn’t exclusively apply to live videos. Your beginning sets the pace for the entire live video both in its overall value and attendance. Step 3: Break the fourth wall. At the start of every live video, there’s a big wall referred to as the fourth wall. That wall exists between you and your audience. People within your audience will engage with your video in real time using a variety of methods. TV shows don’t possess that type of power. However, if you don’t acknowledge your audience, you won’t break the fourth wall.

To break the fourth wall, you need to acknowledge your audience. That’s why at the end of a webinar, the host will invite audience members to ask their questions. A successful host will refer to people by name during the webinar. The same rule of thumb applies for live videos, but why wait until the end? Within a live video, engage with people who comment as you go. It will be difficult at first, but as you get more live video experience, you will get better at engaging with your audience. The easiest way to engage with your audience is to ask people where they are from towards the beginning of your live video. People will comment letting you know. Then you acknowledge each by saying their name and residence. Once you get through, your last task for that live video is to deliver an experience your viewers will appreciate. They are taking time out of their days to watch your video. Make it worthwhile. Marc Guberti is a student at Fordham University and a social media and business blogger and author.

What's on the Market? REAL ESTATE

Suburban brokers see lagging market for luxury homes BY PHIL HALL

phall@westfairinc.com

n early November, FBI Director James Comey was in the headlines in Connecticut — not because of his controversial involvement in the presidential election, but because of the price cutting he undertook on his luxury home in the Green Farms section of Westport. Comey acquired the 3.17-acre, seven-bedroom property, built in 2005, for $3 million in August 2010. Nearly five years later, he put the property back on the market with a price tag of nearly $3.4 million. More than a year passed and the property remained on the market. In early November, Comey cut the price to $2.5 million — his fourth reduction in a span of 16 months. Comey’s situation is hardly unique. Within Fairfield County and across the border in Westchester County, the luxury residential property market is facing more than a few challenges. According to third quarter data released by Douglas Elliman Real Estate, Fairfield County’s luxury residential market median sales price was $1.825 million, down 14.3 percent from the $2.13 million level one year earlier, while the luxury price threshold fell 11.3 percent to $1.3 million. In Westchester, the luxury residential market’s median sales price was unchanged on a year-over-year basis at $2.15 million, while the luxury price threshold slipped 0.3 percent to $1.64 million. “The third quarter was very, very uninspired,” said Cynthia Hughes, a Realtor with the Danbury office of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage. “It was very flat and the days on market were extremely high, with a minimum of 150 days. I knew of a lakefront property that was on the market for almost over a year.” “A lot of real estate people in the luxury market are starting to bring prices down a little bit,” said Wayne Frankel, CEO and

Beleaguered FBI Director James Comey has had more trouble back home in Greenwich, where he’s dropped the listed price on his luxury home, shown here, four times in a 16-month span.

regional owner of Greenwich-based Exit Realty of Connecticut. Some homeowners in these suburban luxury markets find themselves in a losing competition with their Manhattan counterparts, he added. “Homeowners see a boom in New York City and feel, we’re outside of the city and the market should be similar. But it is different. People tend to overprice a bit and Realtors tend to bring their prices down.” That is not to say this market is a flatout bust. “The words I would use to describe the luxury sector are ‘realignment’ and ‘correction,” said James Gricar, general sales manager at Houlihan Lawrence in Rye Brook. “We’re on track to do more deals than in 2014, when the number of transactions were at their highest point.” “We’re busy and had a lot of showings,” said Andrew Todd, co-owner of Greystone on Hudson, a 100-acre gated luxury community in Tarrytown. “We had a strong end of year in 2016 and things are picking up for us. 2017 is going to be good.” The old real estate mantra of “location,

location, location” applies in this market. “Larchmont is solid as a rock,” said Gricar. “Rye, Scarsdale, southern Westchester — the most easily commutable towns. In Fairfield, Greenwich is a solid market. I’ve also seen a good number of luxury deals inked in Westport.” “Upper Fairfield is doing really well,” said Hughes in Danbury. “It has tons of buyers but not enough property.” And at least one real estate professional believes Connecticut is proving to be a cost-effective magnet in this high-priced market. “People looking to reduce their real estate tax rates are finding Fairfield more favorable than Westchester,” said Rob Johnson, an agent with Halstead Property in Greenwich. As for buyers, Hughes noted a trend that counters the empty nester market pattern of older homeowners. “In the last six months, there have been people in their early fifties who, rather than downsize, want to upsize,” she said. “I have people selling for $500,000 and are looking for a FCBJ

home at $1.2 million.” Many buyers of luxury properties in the two counties are not looking for investment vehicles but for a place to call home. “Yes, there are people with second, third and fourth homes,” said Johnson. “But in Greenwich, the vast majority are seeking a primary residence. The demand comes from traditional families from New York City.” Brokers said the market has seen a growing wave of people who would like to test the concept of suburban high-end living without committing to an actual purchase. “There are a lot of renters in the luxury market,” said Frankel. “This is due to some people not being able to sell their homes at the prices they want or as fast as they want. For people considering purchasing luxury homes, sometimes renting is another option on the way to homeownership. And with luxury rentals in these markets, you get the lifestyle associated with New York City while getting a lot more than you would get in the city.” Gricar agreed. “Many people taking the first step into the northern suburbs like to rent,” he said. “They can rent houses to see if they like the housing market.” But Gricar added that the Federal Reserve may soon be prompting renters to think a little more seriously, and swiftly, about home buying. “When interest rates rise, it will motivate many buyers to move forward on property in anticipation of rates going even higher,” he said. Yet Frankel worried that a rate rise could have harmful effects. “If interest rates go up too much and too fast, it will hurt the market and put the entire economy in a bind,” he said. Still, Todd, the luxury homes developer in Tarrytown, is not concerned that any rate hike will damage his operations. “Our prices start at $4 million and we generally have cash buyers,” he said. “Most of the people who can afford this type of home don’t need a mortgage.” WCBJ

New Long Island owner to renovate former AT&T property BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com

he former AT&T Inc. building at 440 Hamilton Ave. in White Plains has new ownership and a new leasing agent with plans to renovate and lease the 300,000-square foot office tower. Greiner-Maltz Realty Advisors in Rye Brook has been named exclusive leasing agent for the 12-story building, which the realty company says is the largest contiguous office space in White Plains. The building opened in the 1960s and was used as a regional network control center by AT&T, according to a history posted on AT&T’s website. The building was sold by AT&T for $18 million to American Equity Partners I LLC and Equity Partners II LLC in a deal that closed Nov. 10, according to county property records. Headquartered in Cedarhurst on Long Island, American Equity Partners is a developer and operator of retail, residential and office properties. The company on its website lists development projects and

440 Hamilton Ave. in White Plains

properties in New Jersey, Connecticut and Far Rockaway, Queens. David Elkouby, a member at American Equity Partners, told the Business Journal the AT&T building was the company’s first purchase in Westchester County. “We believe in the Westchester market and the White Plains market,” he said. “We think it’s a very good market.” Ayall Schanzer, president and CEO of Greiner-Maltz Realty Advisors, said his company is putting plans in place to revamp the building and search for new tenants. Although the new ownership had

considered converting part of the building for residential use, the focus is now on leasing the office space, Schanzer said. He said the size of the building and its access to a second source of power can help it attract tenants. “It is the only building in downtown to have a full backup generator,” Schanzer said. “So that opens the marketplace for potentially relocating New York City financial firms, insurance companies, disaster recovery sites and it’s excellent for health and communications people.” On the corner of Hamilton Avenue and North Broadway in White Plains, the property is next door to 400 Hamilton Ave, where AT&T maintains a telecommunications tower and switching center. It’s across the street from 445 Hamilton Ave., one of two buildings that make up White Plains Plaza, which itself recently changed ownership and underwent renovations. Scott Benson, who along with Schanzer is the lead agent on the property for Greiner-Maltz, said Stefano Cardarelli of the Cardarelli Design Group in White Plains has been retained to redesign the 440 Hamilton Ave. office space. Renovations

will include a model suite on the 10th floor, updates to the conference center, exterior renovations, lobby improvements and new directory systems. “It’s a very unique building, it kind of has the feel of a Rockefeller Center type of property,” Benson said. The building is 25 percent leased, with Entergy Corp., the operators of Indian Point Energy Center, using the top two floors of the building as corporate offices and a disaster recovery site. Benson said Greiner-Maltz is just now beginning soft marketing efforts for the building and is in discussion with a firm to possibly take up an entire floor as well as with a couple potential multifloor tenants. “This will be a Class A building,” Benson said. “But we have the ability of undercutting the market. In a Class A market that may dictate $28 to $32 (per square foot) downtown, we’re going to be marketing this in the mid to high 20s.” Greiner-Maltz opened its office at 800 Westchester Ave. in Rye Brook earlier this year, aiming to expand its footprint in the Bronx, Westchester and Connecticut.

Plans are in the works to create direct access to the South Campus from the Hutchinson River Parkway “We anticipate a great deal of interest from biotech companies that are looking for customized office and lab space in the New York Metro area,” said Joseph Simone, President of Simone Development Companies. The South Campus will offer the opportunity to create biotech offices and research lab facilities designed to suit a wide range of tenant requirements with access to amenities. Simone’s in-house design and construction team will work closely with biotech companies to build the lab and incubator space they require to compete in the demanding environment. The South Campus continues the momentum of the Hutchinson Metro Center’s 42-acre North Campus, which has 1.4 million square feet of Class A office and medical space including the region’s largest ambulatory hospi-

tal and a Marriott hotel, the first luxury hotel in the Bronx. Today, the Hutchinson Metro Center is home to more than 80 businesses, healthcare institutions and government agencies employing 8,000 people with nearly 6,000 visitors each weekday. With the development of the South Campus, a seamless mix of architectural styles will pull the two campuses together as one cohesive 75-acre commercial hub, unlike anything else in the New York metro region. “The debut of the South Campus is truly a landmark event for the Hutchinson Metro Center, for our company, and for the Bronx. We have had our eye on this site for many years, and it is so gratifying to see this next phase of the development moving forward,” Mr. Simone said. “These are exciting times in the Bronx with new offices, retail centers and hotels rising throughout the borough. We are proud to have played an integral part in the renaissance of the New Bronx,” said Mr. Simone. “With the debut of the South Campus, we are taking the Bronx to new heights. It is an amazing story and the next big chapter is about to unfold.”

IBM sells Somers campus for nearly $32 million BY ALEESIA FORNI aforni@westfairinc.com

WAREHOUSE BUILDING FOR SALE

PELHAM MEDICAL BUILDING FOR SALE

82 Townsend Street, Port Chester, NY

116 Fifth Avenue, Pelham, NY

AFTER ANNOUNCING PLANS TO VACATE its Somers property earlier this year, Armonk-based IBM Corp. sold its 1.2 millionsquare-foot campus at 294 Route 100 for $31.75 million, according to documents filed with the Westchester County Clerk’s Office. The 723-acre property was sold to a Delaware limited liability company on Sept. 29, though details of who owns the company, 294 Route 100 LLC, are unclear. Somers Town Supervisor Rick Morrissey said he was unaware of who bought the property. “IBM has been very closed-mouth about this whole thing,” he said. “I’ve never been officially notified that the building sold.” The technology company announced in May that it would relocate staff from its five-building, I.M. Pei-designed Somers complex to its campus in the town of North Castle by March. “My understanding is that this property was not sold to a not-for-profit, so there is going to be a taxpayer up there and I look forward to working with them and collecting taxes, so we can run the town,” Morrissey said. Still, Morrissey called the low sale price of IBM’s building “very bewildering.” Howard E. Greenberg, president of White Plains-based Howard Properties Ltd., called it a “blockbuster sale,” adding that at that price, “you could argue that the buildings were purchased at $28.86 per square foot. To me, that’s a very small fraction of the replacement cost.”

THE BRIDGEPORT ISLAMIC COMMUNITY CENTER is moving ahead with its plan to buy the property belonging to the United Congregational Church, the oldest continuous Christian community in Bridgeport. According to the BICC Facebook page, the organization has an initial agreement to purchase the UCC property at 877 Park Ave. in Bridgeport as the future site of its Islamic Center. The church congregation has yet to give its final approval on the sale, but Pastor Sara Smith told the Connecticut Post that the church and BICC are planning to hold a news conference on Dec. 5, although she declined to preview what will be announced

The sale of the property follows PepsiCo Inc.’s relocation from its 540,000-square-foot facility at One Pepsi Way in Somers to its offices in White Plains and Purchase in 2015. The 200-acre property was bought last year for $87 million by an affiliate of the sprawling business empire of Mexican telecommunications magnate Carlos Slim Helu. Greenberg pointed out that on a peracre basis, PepsiCo’s property sold for about 10 times IBM’s purchase price. The entirety of the former IBM property is designated by the town as an office business zone. “If they want to do anything other than what’s currently there, they’ll need town approvals,” Morrissey said of the new buyers. Greenberg said he somewhat doubted the buyer would use the buildings and the property as is, though it would be a boon to the county. “It would just, in my opinion, be really hard to attract a large user or large users up to that region of the county just given the location,” he said. Morrissey said he hoped to see another large technology company move into the Somers property, though he added that the possibility of getting a single tenant to take over an entire office park is “slowly becoming a thing of the past.”

and has made no comment on the church’s future or BICC’s purchase plans. The United Congregational Church traces its roots to 1693 as the First Church of Christ in Stratfield. The church building was constructed in 1925 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. BICC was founded in 1997, and its leader Ahmed Ebrahim used Facebook to state that BICC plans to “close the deal around May 1, 2017 to have the next holy month of Ramadan in the new Islamic Center, and we will need $400,000 by this date to turn this into a reality.” —Phil Hall

‘Stay tuned’: more redevelopment ahead on Harrison’s Platinum Mile BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com

t the height of office-park occupancy by corporations on the so-called Platinum Mile that straddles Interstate 287 in Harrison and White Plains, businesses were paying 68 percent of Harrison’s property taxes, while homeowners accounted for slightly less than one-third of the town’s tax revenue. But that was decades ago. By the turn of the century, those numbers had flipped, according to Harrison Supervisor and Mayor Ron Belmont. “So we realized something had to be done,” Belmont said. How the town attempted to reposition

its zoning and find new uses for its emptying office parks along the I-287 corridor was the focus of a Nov. 17 presentation hosted by the Commercial Investment Division of the Hudson Gateway Association of Realtors in White Plains. Belmont was joined by Frank S. McCullough Jr., a senior partner at McCullough, Goldberger & Staudt LLP in White Plains, to discuss the ongoing efforts of the town to drive new development in the Platinum Mile corridor. McCullough, Goldberger & Staudt represents several of the real estate firms and companies that have converted or demolished former office buildings for new uses. “The development along I-287 corridor in White Plains and Harrison has an interesting history and I believe, a more interesting future,” McCullough said. McCullough gave a history of how Westchester Avenue grew from the twolane road from Port Chester to White Plains he traveled as a kid growing up in Rye to the corporate magnet it became following the 1960s that made it known as the Platinum Mile. The biggest changes, he said, came with the opening of I-287 in 1960, which was closely followed by Interstate 684. Access to interstates allowed Harrison and White Plains to become home to major companies like Texaco, I.B.M. and General Foods. “Office park after office park sprang up along the corridor both in White Plains and in Harrison,” McCullough said. That continued through the 1990s but then started to slow, he said. “By 2000, no new development was taking place along the corridor and very little capital investment was being made in the buildings,” he said. “Occupancy had become an issue and the future of the corridor was in question.” Corporate downsizing and an economic recession over the next decade didn’t help matters, and by 2010 the I-287 corridor had a glut of open office space. About 30 percent of office space on the Platinum Mile sat empty, McCullough said. With its commercial tax base quickly dwindling, Harrison started a process to review the uses of the large properties to possibly include residential development for apartments and senior living facilities. In 2013, Harrison adopted a new master plan that suggested the town create a mixed-use zone in its Platinum Mile area to allow assisted-care facilities, senior housing and other residential development as well as retail service, retail businesses and restaurants approved for special exception permits. The process of adaptive reuse had begun even before the master plan was adopted. In 2000, a special-exemption use permit allowed for the demolition of an

office building on Corporate Park Drive to be replaced by a hotel, now the Hyatt House White Plains. In 2004, a vacated office building at 400 Westchester Ave. became the Westchester campus of Fordham University. The health care industry has also moved in. Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center invested $128.8 million to convert a former Verizon research building at 500 Westchester Ave. to an outpatient cancer facility in 2014. Westmed Medical Group in May 2015 opened an 85,000-square foot facility at 3030 Westchester Ave. in Simone Development Cos.’ Purchase Professional Park. Perhaps the most significant office-park conversion involved the purchase by Life Time Fitness of a roughly 22-acre acre property that was the site of the 232,000-squarefoot headquarters and printing plant of the Journal News, part of the Gannett Co. Inc. newspaper chain. The Minnesota-based fitness company proposed a $50 million project to raze the building and erect a 209,000-square-foot fitness center, which was approved within seven months. “The seven months is an important benchmark,” McCullough said. “When you think of a project with this magnitude and the reputation that Westchester communities have for long, dragged-out approval process... it set a tone going forward that Harrison’s doors are open for development.” The latest redevelopment will start construction in the spring. Normandy Real Estate Partners LLC, owner and operator of The Exchange office park portfolio in Harrison and White Plains, has partnered with Pennsylvania-based luxury home developer Toll Brothers to tear down two office buildings at 103 and 105 Corporate Park Drive and reuse the 10-acre site for 421 luxury apartments targeting millennials and empty nesters. McCullough said he believes this latest round of development will prove different from the office parks of the 1960s, as it is being made to serve Westchester instead of businesses in New York City. “The story though is not over yet,” he said, adding that more uses are coming. “Stay tuned. Because in the next month or so we will have a major application for what is the remaining large parcel of the Harrison I-287 corridor.” For Belmont, he said he’d love to see the town tax base get back to 68 percent corporate-funded, but he’ll take at least an even split. “Redefining the I-287 corridor is something for the future and something that will stay here and serve the people of Harrison and Westchester County,” he said. “We believe we are moving in the right direction.”

STATE OKS ENTERGY SALE OF OSWEGO NUCLEAR PLANT BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH

METRO CENTER

rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com

$110 million deal to sell the only other nuclear plant in New York controlled by Indian Point Energy Center operator Entergy Corp. was approved this month by state regulators. The state Public Service Commission approved the deal that will transfer the operating license for James A. Fitzpatrick Nuclear Power Plant in Oswego County from Entergy to Chicago-based Exelon Corp. Entergy announced last year that it would shut down the money-losing Fitzpatrick plant, a move that Gov. Andrew Cuomo opposed, citing the 600 jobs the community would lose. After Cuomo announced plans for zero-emission credits to help keep upstate nuclear plants financially viable, Entergy started on plans to sell the plant to Exelon. With the deal, Exelon controls all three upstate plants that will receive the zero-emission credits. The company owns another nuclear plant next door to Fitzpatrick, Nine Mile Point, and the R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant in Wayne County. “Our finding today is that the public will be well-served by the transfer of ownership of Fitzpatrick,” said Public Service Commission Chairperson Audrey Zibelman. “Exelon has an excellent track record as the owner of nuclear power plants and we fully expect it will operate Fitzpatrick in a safe and reliable fashion.” The nuclear subsidy was offered as part of Cuomo’s Clean Energy Standard, which mandates the state receive 50 percent of its energy through renewable sources by 2030. The plan designates up to $965 million over two years to keep endangered nuclear reactors in service while the state builds up its renewable energy infrastructure. The subsidy will be reassessed every two years but could end up costing more than $7 billion over 12 years, by some estimates. The plan has been challenged in federal court by a collection of trade groups and competing energy companies. Buchanan’s Indian Point was left out of the Clean Energy Standard because the PSC did not declare it to be in any financial danger. The Oswego nuclear plant deal still requires approval at the federal level from the U.S. Department of Justice, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

said. “New direct and indirect spending driven by operational and capital spending by the university, its employees, new students and their families and visitors would be a minimum of $27 million to $33 million annually.” With the purchase by SHU, a nonprofit entity, the town of Fairfield will also receive payments from the state’s payment-in-lieuof-taxes or PILOT program for towns. Kinney said the university had been looking for new sites for the College of Education for a number of months before deciding to tour the Fairfield property vacated by GE, which in June began marketing the site through brokers at CBRE Group Inc. “The entire process took about three to four months,” Kinney said. “We took a walk-through and then entered discussions with GE.” More than 25 parties toured the campus, according to a GE spokesperson, who declined to say how many offers were made to acquire the property. Several of SHU’s moves are expected to take place during the next 12 months, Kinney said, noting that the deal is contin-

gent upon approval by the town of Fairfield and the ability of the university to raise the funds needed for the projects he outlined. He declined to estimate what those project costs could be. The SHU deal appears to leave Fairfield University and Fairfield developer Kleban Properties out in the cold. In March the partners announced an exclusive agreement, contingent on their ability to acquire the property from GE, to renovate and develop the property as a hightech hub that would encompass health care-related technology, an executive education center and additional features aimed at drawing big-name corporations to Fairfield. “I’m prepared to offer whatever it takes — within reason — to buy it,” Kleban Properties Chairman Albert Kleban said at that time. Fairfield University did not return calls for comment, but Kleban issued this statement: “We are happy that Sacred Heart University will be using the location to enhance their current programs and uplift the community with their vision. We continue to look for opportunities to participate in developing properties in Fairfield that will serve the residents and the business community.”

to review the proposed lease and the Weitzman Group of Manhattan to do an economic analysis. The appraisal concluded that the property is worth $27.7 million and the annual rent is worth $1.8 million. The report assumes that the acreage will be subdivided from a 90-acre tract and that the property receives all necessary regulatory approvals. The developer would be responsible for installing all utilities. Fareri estimated the cost of that infrastructure work at $30 million to $40 million. Hudson Property Advisors concluded that the proposed development is physically possible, financially feasible and the highest and best use of the land. The report also notes that it will take many years for the market to absorb all 3 million square feet of space. Attorney David Steinmetz told the infrastructure committee that some terms of the proposed lease were not well defined and some aspects needed to be tightened up. He also recommended that the legislators take a more active role than usual as the planning department oversees the

project. Weitzman reported that Westchester has emerged as a major regional health care hub. But the lack of available space and a scarcity of large undeveloped tracts have deterred biotechnology tenants from moving here. Weitzman cited several challenges. The developer still must get the land rezoned by the town of Mount Pleasant. Biotechnology requires heavy water usage and there are potential watershed issues, so the site will need approval from the New York City Department of Environmental Protection. And Westchester Medical Center has rights concerning the property and approval of medical tenants. The consultants were unable to say whether Fareri’s preliminary construction estimates are reasonable. Overall, Weitzman concluded that the North 60 tract is marketable and the projected rents appear reasonable. It recommended that the county enter into a longterm lease with Fareri Associates. Neil DeLuca of Fareri Associates told the committee that the developer expects Mount Pleasant to take two years to approve the project. Preliminary site work would take about three years. The first building would open in five years after the board of legislators approved the lease.

How the ‘Internet of Things’ is Connecting Our Lives One of the driving forces in our regional economy is a fast growing sector known as TAMI, which stands for Technology Advertising Media and Information. Recognizing the importance of this sector to economic development, the BCW has partnered with Manhattanville College to present an important and timely series called TAMI Talks. The latest program in this ongoing series featured a presentation by Michael Michael Dunn, Senior Vice President – Dunn, Senior Vice President Innovation Development at Georgia-Pacific. – Innovation Development at Georgia-Pacific, who gave BCW members and guests a thought-provoking and wide ranging overview of the “Internet of Things” or IoT. Speaking at the program held November 10 at Manhattanville, Dunn explained that IoT is a “connected ecosystem” which starts with the placing of sensors/actuator in devices, such as vehicles, buildings, or equipment that are capable of both sensing data and communicating that data over the Internet. The collected data enters the cloud and is managed by software that creates the ability to not only manage the devices themselves from the cloud (think self-driving cars) but, more importantly, the software uses algorithms to analyze the data to create insights that drive better efficiency, customer experiences and insights. Among the applications of IoT technology are self-driving cars, personal health monitors, energy management systems for office buildings and security monitors for homes, to name a few. Dunn even explained how some cities are using solar-powered garbage cans that compact the trash and then connect to garbage trucks via the internet. Many of these innovations are designed to improve the customer experience. For example, he discussed how Delta Airlines developed an app that allows you to track your bag from the time it leaves the plane to when it arrives at the baggage claim area. Dunn said these and other innovative technologies “will change your life in ways that you can’t even imagine.” And these changes are coming at a rapid pace. “The self-driving car is not decades away. It’s not ten years away. It is five to seven years away. It’s coming much faster than people think,” he said.

Astorino Outlines 2017 Budget, County Airport Plan The importance of fiscally sound budgets and public/private partnerships in promoting economic development – an issue long advocated by the Business Council of Westchester – was the focus of a highly informative presentation to BCW members by County Executive Rob Astorino who outlined his 2017 County Budget and his future vision for funding the county’s operations. Speaking to more than 100 BCW members and guests at the KeyBank Speaker Series on November 16 at Tappan Hill, Astorino said the old model of turning to county residents for tax increases time and again to close budget From left, Joseph Markey, KeyBank Market President and Commercial Banking Sales Leader; County Executive Rob Astorino; BCW President and CEO Marsha Gordon; BCW Chairman Anthony Justic and BCW gaps was broken. Instead he said the county needs to use its assets to leverage Executive Vice President and COO John Ravitz. funds. The County Executive’s comments provide the public with key services without raising taxes. echoed the sentiments of the BCW which has long supported Roger Woolsey, CEO of Million Air, the Houston-based fixed a county budget that is fiscally sound, holds the line on taxes, base operator whose expansion plan at the county airport preserves essential services and maintains the county’s has won support from the BCW, was in agreement, not only excellent credit rating. with the public/private partnership, but with the new model Astorino noted that this year the county’s spending plan had that Astorino was proposing. “We need to look at what assets a $30 million budget gap, mainly created by shortfalls in sales or things that we have that might be better run by private tax and rising healthcare costs for its employees. To help close partnerships with specialized expertise that can maximize the gap, Astorino has proposed a public/private partnership revenues and take the burden off taxpayers so government that would have Oaktree Capital Management lease the can focus on providing essential services,’’ said Woolsey. County Airport for 40 years, paying the county $111 million Following the presentation, Astorino fielded several questions over that time and investing another $30 million in capital from the audience. Asked about rumors circulating that improvements. The plan would free up another $20 million President-elect Donald Trump may be considering him to head locked away in a fund dedicated only to the airport that could the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, now go to the general fund to pay for other expenses. Astorino laughed and downplayed the speculation. “If the Astorino said public/private partnerships like the one with phone rings, I’ll take the call. I’ll see what he has to say,” he Oaktree were the future, a view shared by the BCW which said adding, “It’s nice to be considered for anything like that supports the public/private partnership model as a way to but I don’t anticipate it.”

The Winning Game Plan Featuring Derek Jeter In Collaboration with Steiner Sports Entertainment & Marketing And The Business Council of Westchester

Among the eye-popping statistics revealed at Dunn’s presentations are: • Internet-connected devices are expected to quadruple from 12.1 billion in 2013 to nearly 50 billion by 2025. • 89% of new cars sold worldwide will have embedded connectivity by 2024. • The global market for IoT solutions will grow from $1.9 trillion in 2013 to $7.1 trillion in 2020. “Michael Dunn’s presentation was absolutely fascinating. The audience was captivated by his brilliant insights and observations on a topic that affects some much of our daily lives. Everyone is looking forward to our next TAMI Talks program,” said Marsha Gordon, President and CEO of The BCW.

“BEST NURSING HOME” DESIGNATION A Cortlandt Manor nursing home has made U.S. News & World Report’s list of Best Nursing Homes for 20162017. Field Home – Holy Comforter is a skilled nursing facility, which also provides rehabilitation treatment and adult day-center services. The nonprofit traces its history from 1879 when Sister Louise founded “The House of the Holy Comforter” in New York City. Over the years, it moved several times, finally arriving at its present Cortlandt Manor site of more than 100 acres in 1986. In addition to the skilled nursing facility, there is an assisted living residence and an early learning center. There are approximately 325 staff members. U.S. News evaluated more than 15,000 nursing homes nationwide. Just over 2,000 earned the desig-

nation of “Best Nursing Home.” The evaluation relies on data from the federal government’s Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and standards set by U.S. News. Field Home – Holy Comforter has received a 5-star rating from CMS. “Several million Americans will spend at least some time in a nursing home this year, whether undergoing rehab after a hospital stay or as long-term residents,” said Brian Kelly, editor and chief content officer of U.S. News. “Finding a nursing home that meets an individual’s specific needs can be challenging for families. Our nursing home ratings are designed to help potential residents and their loved ones navigate this difficult process.”

Situated in the beautiful rolling hills east of the Hudson River in Staatsburg, Milea Estate Vineyard neighbors various pastures, dairies, orchards, streams and other vineyards. “We are honored to have the opportunity to join the Food and Beverage Alliance and work together with the businesses and organizations that are driving this diverse industry across the region,” said Barry Milea,

owner of Milea Estate Vineyard. “Although our winery is somewhat new to the region, we have owned the land and have been a part of the Hudson Valley for more than 30 years. We look forward to playing an important role in the future of our industry.” Milea and his father bought the 98-acre property where the vineyard now sits in 1984. For years, he dreamed of returning the property to its farming origins. After years of research, he was finally able to realize his goal by partnering with Ed Evans and Bruce Tripp to open the winery. “Milea Estate Vineyard is a perfect example of the growth we’ve seen in our region’s food and beverage industry in recent years,” said Laurence P. Gottlieb, president and CEO of HVEDC. The vineyard’s website is mileaestatevineyard.com.
