Lucid Motors raises the EV stakes in Westchester-Fairfield

BY GEORGETTE GOUVEIA ggouveia@westfairinc.com

Lucid Motors is a luxury electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer that doesn’t see Tesla as its competition. Rather the creator of the Lucid Air sedan — MotorTrend’s Car of the Year — looks to classic luxe car brands BMW and Mercedes-Benz, said Ryan Baxter, manager of the Lucid studio (showroom) in The Westchester in White Plains, which opened Dec. 17.

And it is precisely because it is both a luxury brand and a sustainable vehicle that Baxter said The Westchester is the perfect place for its first studio in the WestchesterFairfield area. (There are 31 studios in the United States, including three in the tristate area — in Manhattan; Manhasset, Long Island; and Short Hills, New Jersey

EXCLUSIVE:

— as well as four international locations in Geneva; Hilversum, the Netherlands; Munich; and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.)

“We think our base of customers is similar to those who live in (this) area,” Baxter added during a Westfair visit to the studio prior to its official opening.

Those customers can be expected to pony up some big bucks for sleek, all-wheel steeds that combine hefty horsepower and long range per electric charge. The Lucid Air Pure, which begins at $87,400, has a projected 410-mile range per charge and up to 480 horsepower and can go from 0 to 60 miles per hour (MPH) in 3.8 seconds.

The Lucid Air Touring, from $107,400, has a projected 425-mile range per charge and 620 horsepower and can go from 0 to 60 in 3.4 seconds. The Lucid Air Grand Touring, from $138,000, has up to 516

BLT’s Ted Ferrarone looks back at the peaks and challenges of 2022

In 2007, Building & Land Technology (BLT) acquired waterfront property in Stamford from the now-defunct Antares Investment Partners of Greenwich. Fast-forward 15 years and Harbor Point is one of the jewels of Fairfield County’s real estate scene, offering an 8.4 million-square-foot mix of multifamily housing, office space and retail units that changed Stamford for the better and reanimated the shoreline economy.

Beyond Harbor Point, BLT is an active participant elsewhere in Stamford and to the east in Norwalk; the company’s

tri-state presence also expands to Jersey City, New Jersey. In an exclusive interview with the Business Journals, BLT Co-President Ted Ferrarone looked back on the company’s peaks and challenges during 2022 while offering a preview of what 2023 could offer.

As we reach the end of the year and look back at the last 12 months, what do you see as BLT’s greatest achievements?

Ferrarone: From a development standpoint in 2022, we brought online the second tower for Charter Communications and we opened up Anthem, which is the last apartment building that is part of the original Harbor Point master plan.

Apartments for old Kimball theater site still possible

BY PETER KATZ Pkatz@westfairinc.com

The developer that wants to build apartments on the site of the former Kimball Theater at 1219 Yonkers Ave. in Yonkers has gone back to the city’s Planning Board with a new application since the approval under the old application expired in October. Approvals for the project that were granted by the city’s Zoning Board of Appeals do not expire until July 23, 2023.

“As the applicant cannot be granted another year on extension, the current application is before the Planning Board seeking approval for the construction of a 266 residential apartment building with parking together with 1,600 sq. ft. of ground level retail space,” Attorney James L. Veneruso of the Yonkers law firm Veneruso, Curto, Schwartz & Curto LLP said.

There would be 14 floors for apartments and five floors of parking with 278 parking spaces. The garage would be located below the building and have two access points, one from Bronx River Road and the other from

Crescent Place. The entry lobby for residents would connect directly with Yonkers Avenue.

The main lobby would include a resident lounge, fitness and recreational center, small business center, and building services. There also would be apartments on the lobby level.

Veneruso said that the project has faced challenges since obtaining initial approval in

October 2020 that have included increases in material costs, increases in labor costs, the effects of recession and changes in financial institution underwriting criteria.

“These challenges currently make it much more difficult for developers to secure financing,” Veneruso said. He asked that the Planning Board approvals be granted for a two-year period.

The Kimball Theatre originally opened in 1937 and had 700 seats. It was created at a cost of more than $100,000 in a building that formerly held a shirt factory, movie studio and skating rink. The opening night program included “That Girl From Paris” starring Lily Pons and Gene Raymond, “Wanted, Jane Turner” starring Gloria Stuart and Lee Tracy, a newsreel and short subjects.

It operated successfully as a neighborhood theater for about four decades, typically running double features. In the mid-1970s, it operated under the name The Movies. With increasing competition from modern cinemas elsewhere in Yonkers, it eventually closed and was used for awhile as a furniture store.

In 2004, a three-alarm fire broke out that extensively damaged the former theater and adjacent storefronts. In 2010, there was another fire that added to the destruction. In 2017, what remained was torn down.

The developer is the entity 1219 Yonkers Ave., LLC.  It has named the project The Kimball Residences.

Elmsford medical worker says criminal record is no reason for job denial

BY BILL HELTZEL Bheltzel@westfairinc.com

An Elmsford medical worker is suing a healthcare company for revoking a job offer because she has a criminal record.

Leslie Arone accused Sameday Health Inc. of discrimination in a Dec. 8 complaint filed in U.S. District Court in White Plains, for rescinding a job offer “solely on the basis of her criminal convictions that have no direct relationship to the position to be held.”

Arone “has not had any issues with law enforcement since her release from prison in mid-June 2017,” the complaint states, and she has been “a productive and law-abiding citizen of New York.”

She was convicted three times from 2014 to 2016, on charges of operating a motor vehicle under the influence of drugs or alcohol and unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle, in Saratoga and Warren counties.

The last conviction concerned a 2015 incident in which she crashed a SUV while impaired by drugs. Arone, then 47, was charged with a felony because of the previous DUI conviction, the Albany Times Union reported.

She was sentenced to one to three years in prison, according to a state Department of Corrections record, and was released in June 2017 from Albion Correctional Facility.

Since then, she has been certified as a phlebotomy technician and as a medical assistant. She has held positions with the Westchester Broadway Theatre gift shop, Westchester Medical Center and Northwell urgent care.

This past May, the complaint states, the state Department of Corrections issued her a certificate of good conduct that restored her right to employment and licensure.

That same month, she applied for a position as a certified medical assistant with Sameday.

On June 3, Sameday allegedly offered her a position in White Plains at $25 an hour or $52,000 a year, but she still had to go through a backgrounding process.

She was cleared for work on July 7, according to the complaint.

But that day she also received an email from Maerly Payroll Processing, a Westlake, California company that handled her application, revoking the job offer due to her criminal history and an email from Sameday that allegedly stat-

ed, “You cannot have a felony on your record if you work here.”

Arone’s attorney, Stefanie Shmil, argues that the revocation violated New York State Executive Law and New York State Correction Law that specify that an individual may not be denied employment for previous criminal convictions unless there is a direct relationship between the criminal offenses and the job, or there is an unreasonable risk to property or public safety.

There is no direct relationship between Arone’s convictions and the

duties of a medical assistant, the complaint states, and Sameday and Maerly failed to consider the circumstances, such as her recent record of gainful employment .

Arone is demanding damages for lost wages and benefits and for injury to her reputation.

Sameday spokeswoman Avani Johnson said in an email that the Venice, California company “has no comment” on the lawsuit.

Maerly did not respond to an email requesting its side of the story.

COMPILED BY PHIL HALL AND PETER KATZ

During 2022, Westchester and Fairfield County saw surplus number of professionals rise to the top of their industries with innovative leadership skills, often addressing tumultuous social and economic situations with inspirational intellect and an undiluted sense of passion for their work.

In compiling our list for 2022’s Persons of the Year, we are reminded that the concept of “business as usual” is nowhere to be seen in this gathering of the region’s best and brightest.

Dr. Seamus Carey, president of Iona University, New Rochelle. Carey shepherded the transformation of Iona College into Iona University. The achievement of university status this year followed Iona’s expansion to the campus of former Concordia College and Concordia’s students who wished to continue their educations at Iona. The Concordia campus became a health sciences-focused school at Iona, which is continuing its expansion after launching a new nursing program. As a result of Carey’s work, Iona’s enrollment and educational activities have seen a remarkable expansion.

John Ciulla, president and CEO of Webster Financial Corp., Stamford. This has been a hectic year for the parent company of Webster Bank and its tireless chief executive. Under Ciulla’s leadership in 2022, Webster completed its merger with Sterling Bancorp and the relocation of its headquarters from Waterbury to Stamford, which was followed by the acquisition of Bend Financial Inc., a cloud-based platform solution provider for health savings accounts, and the deposit management platform StoneCastle Insured Sweep LLC, which does business as interLINK. In the spring, the company announced a $6.5 billion community development initiative in the markets that it serves and established a new Office of Corporate Responsibility to oversee its community engagement efforts. Ciulla took on increased prominence through his election as chairman of the American

PERSONS OF THE YEAR

Janet Giris, partner at DelBello Donnellan Weingarten Wise & Wiederkehr LLP, White Plains. Giris is a familiar figure at board and council meetings throughout Westchester, where she represents developers and other clients seeking municipal action on various projects. She also has represented clients seeking Industrial Development Agency incentives. Giris is a member of the Land Use and Zoning Practice group of the law firm DelBello Donnellan Weingarten Wise & Wiederkehr LLP. Before joining the firm, she was deputy town attorney for the Town of Greenburgh. A graduate of SUNY Binghamton and Western New England College School of Law, she is admitted to the bar in New York, New Jersey and Massachusetts.

Dr. Edward C. Halperin, chancellor and CEO of New York Medical College, Valhalla. Halperin is an influencer of students and NYMC graduates as they develop careers devoted to helping people through the application of modern-day health care. In addition, Halperin also has been actively working to have an impact on a perennial problem in society that seems to be worsening: anti-Semitism. He has been an outspoken critic in speeches and writing of those who engage in anti-Semitism, whether hidden or in the open, and those efforts continued in 2022.

Brad Jacobs, executive chairman of XPO Logistics, Greenwich. Under Jacobs’ leadership, XPO Logistics successfully subdivided into three publicly traded entities. Last year, the less-than-truckload freight operator turned its global business operations into GXO Logistics, and this year the company’s freight brokerage business became the new entity with RXO Inc. Jacobs stepped down from his CEO role at XPO last month, retaining the position of executive chairman while simultaneously holding non-executive chairman roles at GXO and RXO. The 66-year-old Jacobs, a serial entrepreneur, told the Wall Street Journal that he was plotting additional

business endeavors, stating, “I haven’t burned any calories yet exploring my next company. When the time comes to focus on the next big thing, there will be no shortage of opportunities to create massive shareholder value.”

Arvind Krishna, chairman and CEO of IBM, Armonk. As the head of IBM since 2020, Krishna has enjoyed a 35-year career with the tech leader. He was the face of IBM’s new $20 billion commitment to expansion in the Hudson Valley, welcoming President Biden to IBM’s facilities in Poughkeepsie and focusing attention on the Hudson Valley as a tech center. He has also seen the growth of IBM through a mergers and acquisitions strategy that encompassed more than 25 companies since Krishna took the leadership role — including eight acquisitions during 2022.

Paul Levesque, chief content officer of WWE, Stamford. After the scandal involving longtime WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon’s departure amid press reports of hush money payments to former female employees regarding alleged harassment, the company moved far beyond mere damage control with a new vibrancy focused on inventive marketing — most notably the clever “White Rabbit” multimedia campaign highlighting the reappearance of wrestler Bray Wyatt — and a response to fan input by returning popular wrestlers who were previously forced out by McMahon. Much of the credit for this new level of excitement has been traced to Levesque, who is best known to wrestling fans as “Triple H.” Levesque’s content focus has helped boost TV ratings and put WWE stock up 15% higher than its level when McMahon was still in charge — and financial analysts are no longer dropping rumors of the company being a target for sale.

Keith McCullough, CEO of Hedgeye Risk Management, Stamford. As the founder and leader of the prominent investment research company, McCullough was among the very few thought leaders in the financial services industry to warn investors about doing business with FTX, the

Bahamas-based cryptocurrency exchange run by Sam Bankman-Fried. While politicians sang Bankman-Fried’s praises (and pocketed his donations) and mainstream media gushed over him — the Benzinga financial news site nominated FTX for its Fintech Award as Best Crypto Exchange and the 30-year-old Bankman-Fried for a Lifetime Achievement Award — McCullough called on Hedgeye’s customers and anyone following him on social media to steer clear of that investment. The collapse of FTX and Bankman-Fried’s arrest on securities fraud charges confirmed McCullough’s warnings, which allowed many people to protect their money from the crypto debacle.

Dr. Joseph Rosa, medical director of the Fred Weisman Americares Free Clinic, Bridgeport. Rosa is a practicing endocrinologist for Yale New Haven Health’s Northeast Medical Group in Trumbull and is affiliated with Bridgeport Hospital and St. Vincent’s Medical Center. This summer, he took on the volunteer role of running Americares’ free medical clinic in Bridgeport. As he told the Business Journals, “I’ve been extremely fortunate in going to medical school, establishing and having a successful practice and always looking out for the underserved, so it’s a way for me to continue to look out for patients who, a lot of times, don’t have people looking out for them.”

Mike Spano, mayor of Yonkers. Under the Spano administration, massive redevelopment has been taking place in the city, with the estimated value of projects so far put at $5 billion. Yonkers is being has become a center for motion picture and television production with Spano as a leading advocate for construction of the Lionsgate Studios near the Metro-North train station in downtown as well as other studio campuses in the city. During Spano’s tenure, Yonkers grew to become the third largest city in New York state — and the stage was set Spano to run for a fourth term when the City Council recently voted to set aside term limits.

Bringing a new look to Greenwich Plaza

BY JUSTIN MCGOWN jmcgown@westfairinc.com

The former Bowtie Theater at the corner of Steamboat Road and Railroad Avenue in the heart of Downtown Greenwich will be replaced by a large “signature restaurant” as well as a second space that could host a fast-casual eatery, if a plan by GP Holding Co. Inc. moves forward.

The plan, which was recently presented to the Greenwich Planning & Zoning Commission (PZC), will see the entire Greenwich Plaza Complex built around the Greenwich Metro North station on the north side of the tracks receive the construction equivalent of a face lift. The most radical changes would consist of tearing down the now shuttered theater and shrinking the footprint to create a more inviting plaza for outdoor dining while replacing the precarious set of train station stairs used by commuters.

Metro North owns the platforms at the station, but the station building is privately owned by GP Holding Co., formerly

Greenwich Plaza Inc. The plans include interior renovations of the station itself, with the relocation of some interior machinery to allow for additional shopping or café space, new railings and the possible installation of additional seating. The permanently closed ticket counter is also slated to be repurposed to provide an additional retail location.

Along the rest of Greenwich Plaza, the plan calls for a new station façade while keeping the existing structures in place to reduce cost and save time.

“It’s based on a study of European train stations which have a similar kind of aesthetic,” explained Frank Prial Jr., a principal architect at Beyer Blinder Belle, the New York-based firm behind the redesign. “What we’ve done is clad it with material that has drawn inspiration from other significant civic buildings in Greenwich. We tried to create a sense of permanence and civic significance but also of transparency to allow light to come in and then let people be able to see and experience activity within the building.”

Prial also told the PZC his team ago-

nized over the design of a clock for the station and insisted that having one was “as important to a train station as the railroad.”

The proposed plan will update the street facing sides of every shop front in Greenwich Plaza and replace the trees along that side of the street. Limestone and bronze-toned aluminum are to be used for the station itself while the shopfronts will be reclad in materials that reflect the colors and warmth. The revamped western end will include more glass and wood to provide a warmer, friendlier atmosphere than the current concrete box which makes up the theater building.

According to Bruce Cohen, an attorney from Fogarty Cohen Russ & Nemiroff LLC representing GP Holding, the plan presented at the zoning meeting was the result of close work with Greenwich’s Architectural Review Committee (ARC).

“This is a brand-new project,” Cohen told the commission while explaining the plan was significantly different from an earlier version. “We’ve been through a lot of interesting discussions and the ARC has been helpful. Comments we received at

pre-application have been helpful as well.”

The PZC expressed broad support for the plan, though there were concerns raised about the need to replace the trees along Railroad Avenue, the height of an existing retaining wall and the possibility of introducing a drop-off zone in front of the station. It was decided that the plans should be reexamined with consultation with the ARC.

PZC Chairperson Margarita T. Alban praised the cooperation displayed thus far in developing the plan.

“Practice makes perfect,” she said. “But I have to say this is a collaborative approach and the project is much better than when it was started.”

Alban urged all involved to “buckle down” on the remaining issues, adding, “We don’t want to get emotional about it. We just want to facilitate what’s safe and convenient. We’re not going to ask you to put togethering something that is going to be risky.”

The plans will be resubmitted to the PZC after further revision. No date has been set for a submission deadline.

We built out a new park called Triangle Park and we renovated four historic buildings into below market rate units. And we partnered with HDF [Housing Development Fund] — they did a big renovation and new construction of some other affordable homeownership units here in Stanford. And we brought a ton of new tenant companies down here to the South End as well in the last year.

And, so, it’s been a really good year. It’s really interesting now, because the construction is really complete. You see everybody’s out on the street, walking and jogging and pushing strollers — it’s really vibrant down here and it’s nice.

And on the flip side, what have been your greatest challenges?

Ferrarone: That’s a great question. Stamford, the South End and Harbor Point have had a lot of great tailwinds. Covid has been a challenging time, but I think at some level it’s actually worked to Stamford’s advantage because people realized this is a great place to live and to work.

It’s been a challenging time — certainly with the economy when interest rates are up, and that’s not great for everybody. But it hasn’t really affected us here. I think some of the retailers had a tough time during Covid, but they seemed to have really rebounded now. I think everybody had a great summer. And they seem to be doing well today.

In terms of the residential real estate, how would you define Stamford’s housing market?

Ferrarone: The apartment side has been really strong. I’ve been working here in Stamford for more than 15 years, and when we first started building Harbor Point there really weren’t that many apartment buildings in Stamford. Over that time period, there’s been just such a huge amount — and a wide array of apartments have been built throughout Downtown Sanford, in the South End. You get everything from renovated two-story homes to high-rise towers. There are modern buildings, there are more traditional buildings. We’ve built about 4,200 apartments alone just in the South End.

But there have been a couple hundred other apartments built by others here, and Downtown Stamford also had thousands of apartments built. That also includes a lot of affordable housing which has been built, which I think has been a benefit for the economy here. And when we talk to corporate employ-

ers who are thinking about relocating to Stamford, people really want to be here — the biggest impediment historically was that they couldn’t get enough housing for their workforce, and you don’t hear that as much now because there is so much housing there.

What do you have on your agenda for 2023?

Ferrarone: That’s a great question. Here in Stamford, we’re finishing up the lease on Anthem and will continue to do a lot of great programming and events. And this is the first time in a decade we haven’t had a ton of construction. We’ve got some office space that we’re working on leasing. I’ll put bring some new employers down here to the neighborhood.

We’ve been focused on Stamford — what is BLT doing up the road in Norwalk?

Ferrarone: In Norwalk, we opened up a complex called The Curb, which is on Glover Avenue. We built about 900 units there in the last five years. We’re just finishing up the third building there and received all the approvals to build another 1m300 units there, which we’ll be working on over the next couple years — that will likely start next year and that’s going to be great.

I think that’s a place where the market is really underserved by housing — both Wilton and in Norwalk, in that area there just isn’t enough apartments out there. And that’s where we hear from the employers that they’re looking for housing for their teams. When we look at the residents who live at The Curb, predominantly they work in a relatively tight radius around that area. So, we know that housing is serving the corporate employers in that area.

There have been complaints throughout the construction industry regarding the inability of many developers to get workers. Has this been a problem for BLT?

Ferrarone: No, not really. One of the

great things the State of Connecticut did is they kept construction up and running during Covid — versus New York City where it shut down and people scattered here in Connecticut, where they kept everybody working. So, we haven’t really seen that hit here.

Is BLT considering going into any other markets, either within Fairfield County or elsewhere in Connecticut?

Ferrarone: We’ve done quite a bit of work up in Danbury. Historically, we have very large projects that they’re called the Abbey Woods. Certainly, we would. We’re not looking at anything today, but we would.

You’re also doing work in Jersey City. How does that market compared to what you’re doing in Stamford in Norwalk?

Ferrarone: Jersey City’s a great market, but it is much more dependent on New York City — probably 50% of our residents in Jersey City work in New York City. It is much more urban with a lot more apartments. It is different though the quality of life in Stamford and Norwalk — it’s a little more walkable here. Jersey City is more New Yorkcentric whereas Stamford and Norwalk being a little more diverse.

Are the Wilton Center Lofts a little too lofty?

BY JUSTIN MCGOWN jmcgown@westfairinc.com

Plans for multifamily housing at Wilton Center have come into potential conflict with the Plan of Conservation and Development (POCD), also casually referred to as the master plan, currently being developed by the Town of Wilton. The proposed housing development, tentatively named the Wilton Center Lofts, would consist of 32 one-, two- and three-bedroom units located at 12 Godfrey Place.

Presently, a three-story brick office building stands on the lot at the corner of Godfrey Place and Hubbard Road with two small parking lots separated by a stand of pine trees. Situated on the same block as the Wilton Library, the property occupies prime real estate in the core of Wilton Center.

The proposal calls for replacing the offices with a building which will take up most of the current lot, with ground floor covered parking and units located above. Two floors of standard sized units are to be capped by a “penthouse floor” with high, gabled ceilings for four stories and a height of 52 feet.

However, the POCD covering Wilton Center, while still only a draft and not fully in-force, limits structures to a maximum height of 48 feet. The POCD would also ban building footprints from taking up more

than 50% of the total area of the lot they stand on, a limit which the proposed development would exceed by taking up 62% of the lot with the current design.

As a result, the developer and present owner Wilton Center Lofts LLC and its principles Matthew Finkle and Richard Granoff are seeking a variance. They hope to head off potential conflict with the new POCD even though it is not yet implemented. Without the variances, there is a risk that the project could become noncompliant while still under construction, opening the possibility of an even greater conflict over an incomplete building.

Attorney Elizabeth Suchy of Carmody Torrance Sandak & Hennessy LLP represented the applicants and emphasized the similarities between the submitted proposal and proposals for the POCD recently submitted by BFJ Consulting, the consulting firm Wilton has hired to help it draft a master plan.

“In many ways the proposal that we have before you is either consistent with what is suggested or very close to what is suggested,” said Suchy, pointing out the plan called for the inclusion of four-story structures to improve housing availability and density, and 1.35 ratio of parking spaces to housing units, while their submitted plan has a ratio of 1.3.

“We would like to work cooperatively with you to adjust the plan in a way that is not only beneficial to my client but also

addresses the concepts, ideas and concerns that you have and were also identified by the BFJ mast plan,” Suchy said.

The developer Granoff explained that the most recently submitted paperwork did not include updated drawings due to the potential for conflict with the POCD.

“We are not confident that the plan is going to be approved anytime quickly or soon,” Granoff said. “And the development team is not in a position to wait for what we think is going to be six months to a year for it to get approved. So, we’d like to work with you, and we feel that our proposal is greatly in line with the spirit of the master plan.”

Granoff disputed several points within the proposed plan, noting that downtown areas typically have buildings occupying more than half of their total lot, and argued that the height restriction might encourage architecture the commission would normally reject.

“We have four stories with a gabled roof, and the only way for me to get four stories within the proposed 48 feet is to have a flat roof. My proposed architecture is gabled specifically to relate to New England architecture,” Granoff asserted. “I would think you’d want to promote the use of gabled structures in your master plan, and for four stories at 48 feet it is hard to make that happen.”

Planning and Zoning Board Chairman Richard Tomasetti disputed the idea that the POCD is not near completion.

“I don’t know where you got the idea it’s going to be six months,” Tomasetti said. “In our meetings last week, we were discussing that this will be delivered by the consultant by the end of the year complete with those regulations.”

A brief discussion among the commissioners led to the conclusion that the POCD could be in place as early as mid-January, though they admitted they could not provide an absolute guarantee to Granoff with regards to the timeframe.

Tomasetti also expressed concerns about some aspects of the design, particularly the presence of air conditioning units at the ground floor, and an entrance at the corner of the property.

“I hear what you’re saying about some of the things that might be a little wonky,” Tomasetti allowed, “but that is our plan for the entire downtown and not just your building…I urge you to stay the course. If you want to bring an 8-30g that’s within your rights but won’t make as much money but I think you want to have a nice building. I think that’s your objective here, to be a good landowner in our village.”

By invoking Connecticut General Statute 8-30g, Granoff would be able to bypass many of Wilton’s zoning regulations but would be required to designate much of the structure affordable housing. Granoff ultimately agreed with Tomasetti and said that he plans to edit and resubmit the proposal by the first week of January.

miles of range and up to 1,050 horsepower and can go from 0 to 60 in 3 seconds. It takes 12 minutes to charge 200 miles on the Grand Touring; 15 minutes on the Pure and Touring. (The limited-edition Lucid Air Dream, from $169,000 with up to 520 miles of range per charge and up to 1,111 horsepower, began delivery to its 520 customers in October of last year.)

It was the first car produced by the publicly traded company, headquartered in the Silicon Valley city of Newark, California, which began life in 2007 as Atieva, building electric-car batteries and powertrains for other car manufacturers. In 2016 it rebranded as Lucid Motors, a name, Baxter said, that was more fitting for its intent to create the best luxury electric car around in its Casa Grande, Arizona, plant. Behind the wheel is Peter Rawlinson, doing double duty as CEO and CTO (chief technology officer). The former vice president of vehicle engineering at Tesla and chief engineer of its Model S, Rawlinson also served as head of vehicle engineering at Corus Automotive, chief engineer at Lotus Cars and principal engineer at Jaguar Cars after graduating from Imperial College, University of London.

But even with someone as steeped in automotive engineering as Rawlinson at the helm, the path to creating and especially marketing a sustainable, high-performance vehicle — once thought to be a contradiction in terms — is not without its challenges in a volatile economy dogged by Covid, supply-chain issues, inflation and a cooling EV market. The Lucid Group Inc. (NASDAQ: LCID) reported third quarter earnings of $195.5 million, which missed analysts’estimates, resulting in a quarterly net loss of 40 cents per share.

Despite this and a downward revision in its proposed production guidance, the company reported that it was still on track to make between 6,000 and 7,000 vehicles in fiscal 2022 — producing 2,282 vehicles during the third quarter alone, more than tripling the number produced in the second quarter, and delivering 1,398 vehicles, more than doubling the number delivered in Q2.

This, Rawlinson said in a statement, proves “our ability to produce 300 cars a week, with a visible pathway to our next incremental ramp-up.” (No doubt helping that ramp-up is a multiyear partnership that would see Panasonic supply lithium-ion batteries to the EV manufacturer.)

There’s also strong demand for the Lucid Air, with more than 34,000 reservations as of Nov. 7, representing potential sales of more than $3.2 billion, not including up to 100,000 vehicles for the now sustainably-minded Saudi Arabian government under a 10-year agreement. (The kingdom’s

Public Investment Fund has put more than $1 billion into Lucid Motors, which is setting up its first international production company there.)

Clearly the international market is important to Lucid — which received the highest rating, five stars, in the Euro NCAP Safety Assessment in the run-up to the Hilversum studio’s Dec. 16 opening and has made overtures to China, the world’s largest EV consumer.

Back at The Westchester, it’s hard not to be beguiled by Lucid Air’s space-age design, with its glass canopy (standard on the Air Grand Touring and optional for the Air Touring), leather interiors, wood trims, Aero wheels and chassis in five shimmering, saturated colors — Infinite Black, Quantum Gray, Zenith Red, Cosmos Silver and Stellar White.

Driving around White Plains quietly with Baxter at the wheel, you can’t help but feel as if you’re riding in KITT — the artificially intelligent car in the 1980s crime series “Knight Rider” — if KITT were a billionaire, that is.

At The Westchester locale, you can take a personalized virtual test drive or an actual one. What you cannot do is buy a car directly from a Lucid studio as it is not a dealership — a situation that may change nationwide if Lucid is successful in the lawsuit it has filed in Texas. For now, you would go online to “design” and order your car. The California office offers phone support with this, Baxter said. Should your car require repair, he added, a technician in a van pulls up to your home or office.

The Lucid Air, to be followed by the Lucid Gravity SUV in early 2024 with reservations opening next year, uses a combined charging system accessible to every charging system, Baxter said — except Tesla’s.

As for Tesla, CEO Elon Musk has predicted the rival Lucid is “not long for this world.”

But judging from our test drive, and the company stating that its $3.85 billion in cash, cash alternatives and investments is enough to fund it through next year, it appears that Lucid is here to stay.

Major Energy agrees to pay $1.5M to deceived gas and electric customers

BY BILL HELTZEL Bheltzel@westfairinc.com

Former Rockland County gas and electricity broker Major Energy Services has agreed to pay $1.5 million in restitution to New York customers it was accused of tricking into buying overpriced services.

Major Energy made the deal with New York Attorney General Letitia James to settle a lawsuit filed this past January in which the state claimed that the company, once based in Orangeburg, overcharged tens of thousands of New Yorkers by tens of millions of dollars.

Brokers such as Major Energy were formed when New York deregulated the energy market in 1996.  They could buy gas and electricity on the open market and have them delivered to customers through local utilities’ pipes and wires.

The idea was to encourage more competition and lower energy prices. As there is no qualitative difference between the energy that brokers buy, they compete against one another and local utilities such as Con Edison on price.

But Major Energy lured customers with false promises of savings, according to the lawsuit. Initially, it set a low fixed rate for the customer but when the contract expired the plan automatically switched to higher fixed rates or variable rates.

Customers paid millions of dollars more than they would have paid if they had stuck with their local utility companies, the state argued.

Major Energy’s alleged scheme went well beyond false pricing, according to court records.

Door-to-door solicitors posed as local utility representatives, according to the lawsuit, and used high pressure tactics to persuade resident to switch services. In some instances they refused to leave until the resident switched and they coached customers on how to circumvent a verification system when they switched.

Telemarketers pressured residents to reveal account numbers on their utility bills, according to the state’s findings, then engaged in slamming, impersonating the customers and switching their accounts to Major Energy.

Customers who tried to cancel were unable to reach anyone at Major Energy, the state claimed, and when they did cancel they were charged excessive termination fees.

Major Energy neither admitted nor denied the state’s allegations, according to the settlement, and they agreed to pay restitution “solely for the purpose of avoiding costly and protracted litigation.”

Spark Energy Inc., Houston, acquired Major Energy in 2016 and has since changed

its name to Via Renewables. Major Energy’s management was replaced, the settlement states, and it does not employ anyone involved in the deceptive practices.

Major Energy also agreed to change its ways. Sales people may not mislead customers about pricing, for example, or pretend that they represent the local utility. Door-todoor sales people must wear clothing and display IDs that identify them as representatives of Major Energy.

The company may not claim that it provides the best available rates for gas and electricity. Staff must be trained about proper sales practices, their work must be monitored, and quarterly compliance reports must be filed.

The settlement was signed on Nov. 30 by Paul Konikowski, the chief operating officer of Via Renewables. Assistant Attorney General Glenna Goldis and consumer frauds bureau chief Jane M. Azia signed the deal for the state on Dec. 12.

Major Energy customers who think they were cheated can file an online complaint through the Attorney General’s consumer frauds bureau or call 800-771-7755 to have a complaint form sent by mail.

Clear Channel wins billboard ruling against New Rochelle

BY BILL HELTZEL Bheltzel@westfairinc.com

Afederal judge has ruled that a New Rochelle law banning billboards does not cover five highly profitable structures owned by Clear Channel Outdoor along Interstate 95.

U.S. District Court Judge Nelson S. Román granted partial summary judgment for Clear Channel on Oct. 20 on a 2020 complaint challenging the billboard law. On Nov 28 he denied the city’s request to reconsider his ruling.

Clear Channel claimed that the city was illegally forcing it to remove billboards, threatening excessive fines and awarding its locations to a competitor as part of a two-decade campaign against the advertising company.

New Rochelle banned billboards in 1996, but Universal Outdoor Holdings Inc., later acquired by Clear Channel, of Austin, Texas, challenged the constitutionality of the law. The city settled the case in 2000, exempting some billboards but requiring them to be removed by the end of 2020.

But New Rochelle was not banning all billboards. In 2016, the city solicited proposals to erect nine new billboards along I-95, according to court records, in

exchange for a share of revenue. A Clear Channel competitor won the contract.

Then in September 2020 a New Rochelle official told Clear Channel to remove its billboards by the end of the year, and city council amended the billboard law to impose fines on signs still standing in 2021.

Clear Channel claimed that the fines could cost the company $116 million a year.

Clear Channel argued in the 2020 lawsuit that New Rochelle was violating constitutional rights, such as the Fifth Amendment protection prohibiting government from taking private property without just compensation.

Judge Román granted summary judgment on one count of the 12-count complaint, in which Clear Channel argued that the billboard law did not apply to at least five of the 16 billboards it operated in New Rochelle.

The city was represented by Harris Beach attorneys Darius P. Chafizadeh of White Plains and James P. Nonkes of the Rochester area. They did not respond to an email asking whether New Rochelle will appeal the ruling.

Clear Channel was represented by Sidley Austin LLP attorneys in Washington.

Innovators — local, national and international — gathered for a unique and highly informational program at the BCW’s Westchester Innovation Network (WIN) Showcase where four innovators were awarded $25,000 in cash grants.

“Westchester County’s future will be determined by new ideas and technologies,” said Dr. Marsha Gordon, the BCW’s President and CEO speaking at the event held November 29th at the Westchester Marriott. “We established WIN to attract innovators to our county, where we hope they will prosper and grow, and to inspire innovation within our local ecosystem as well. The four innovation grant

winners are exciting companies developing products and services with immense potential to benefit our society.”

The Showcase highlighted the results of WIN’s Innovation Match Program, which attracted innovative companies to Westchester and paired them with local companies to test their products and services in real-world settings. The program’s continuing goal is to provide the local host companies with an opportunity to understand innovation within their industries and to provide valuable feedback to innovators who need to pilot or beta test in a prospective customer setting.

Dr. Jeanette Mahoney, CatchU’s Founder, called her participation in WIN “amazing.”

“It’s been remarkable in establishing network connections,” said Mahoney. “We’re beginning to see patients now who are in our randomized control trial, and we’ve been invited to a few different talks, so the connections are seemingly never-ending.”

ConConnect Founder Andre Peart said his work with the Yonkers Housing Authority yielded important results. “It was fantastic in several ways as far as showing us different projects that we can do and how we can collaborate with other cities,” said Peart. “It also gave us a lot of impact that we can do within low-income and municipal housing with helping formerly incarcerated people get jobs and services.”

ShelterZoom founder Chao Cheng-Shorland said her participation in the WIN program exposed her smart-document company to many new potential clients. “What is significant is WIN helped us establish a legal vertical,” said Cheng-Shorland about her smart-document testing with local law firms. “We explored the use of our product, the value proposition, and the user experience.”

Last20 founder Lauren Barnes said her pilot test of recycled-plastic-infused pavement with Regeneron will begin in the spring. “This whole program has allowed us to make our goals come to life, so we’re really grateful for that,” said Barnes.

$10,000:

Business Inc. $5,000: ShelterZoom for its smart document testing with Dorf & Nelson and Fullerton Beck.

The BCW also gave the Yonkers Housing Authority a certificate of recognition for working with several WIN innovators. “My father, a successful teacher, real estate professional, and entrepreneur, told me to ‘always look for the win-win’ in any deal. The entrepreneurs win, and partnerships like Yonkers Housing Authority and Westchester Innovation Network, create the environment for the residents of Yonkers and Westchester County to win,” said Wilson Kimball, president and CEO of the Yonkers Housing Authority.

Additional news about the WIN program is posted on the BCW’s website.

Ringing in 2023 on a sound tax footing

The financial climate during 2022 was active, volatile and unpredictable. But market declines can be a good thing when you’re looking to create opportunities to balance your portfolio. If you want to capitalize on the down market, it’s a good idea to start with an analysis of your financial situation that takes in a variety of considerations to determine a strategy to pay the right amount of taxes and possibly save money in the process. With fourth-quarter estimated taxes due Jan. 17, Ben Soccodato and Chris Kampitsis of The SKG Team at Barnum Financial Group in Elmsford said there’s still time to consider some year-end tax strategies to help mitigate your tax responsibility:

Tax-loss harvesting

The main goal of tax-loss harvesting is to defer income taxes years into the future, ideally when you retire and are presumably in a lower tax bracket. The strategy dictates you sell investment assets like stocks, bonds and mutual funds at a loss to lower your tax liability — which shouldn’t be too hard in a down year like 2022. When your capital losses are more than your gains, the IRS allows you to apply up to $3,000 in losses against your taxable income. Plus, you can carry over the remaining losses to offset income in future years.

Retirement-account contributions

Another strategy is to maximize your employer contributions to your retirement accounts, such as 401(k), Traditional IRA, Roth IRA and Health Savings Accounts (HSA). For this current tax year, the maximum allowable 401(k) contributions are $20,500 up to age 49 and $27,000 for ages 50-plus along with a $6,500 catch-up contribution. The maximum IRA contributions are $6,000 up to age 49 and $7,000 for ages 50-plus along with a $1,000 catchup contribution. If you own an HSA, you may want to consider maxing out contributions as well — $7,300 for families, $3,650 for individuals and an additional $1,000 for individuals ages 55-plus.

It’s also important to note that in some states you can contribute a certain amount to your 529 plans for college and you’ll qualify for a tax deduction. So it’s not only retirement accounts that may provide you with tax mitigation tools.

Required minimum distributions (RMDs)

Traditional IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs (Savings Incentive Match Plans For Employees) and SEPs (Simplified Employee Pensions) mandate RMDs on April 1 the year following your 72nd birthday. To avoid a penalty,

you need to take your RMD by Dec. 31. If you don’t take your required minimum distribution by New Year’s Eve, you will face a 50% excise tax on the withdrawal amount based on your age, life expectancy and beginning-of-year balance. If you don’t need the cash flow, consider a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) pulled directly from your retirement account to a public charity of your choosing. Also, this will help keep your taxable income low.

Roth IRA conversion

This is a great way to save money in the long run, especially in this current climate. The conversion is considered a taxable event and any pretax contributions and earnings converted to a Roth IRA are added to your gross income and taxed as regular

income. But earnings and contributions within the account grow tax-free and once an account has been opened for five years, when you reach the age 59½, you’re able to withdraw funds penalty-free.

Bunch itemized deductions

There are certain expense categories that the IRS will allow you to classify as itemized deductions. They are medical and dental, deductible taxes, qualified mortgage interest (including points for buyers), investment interest on net investment income, charitable contributions and casualty, disaster and theft losses. These expenses can only be itemized if they’re higher than a certain percentage of your AGI — Adjusted Gross Income. For 2022 taxes, single filers may claim a $12,950 stan-

dard deduction, while married couples filing jointly can claim a $25,900 standard deduction.

Charitable donations

There are plenty of charitable organizations doing great work that could use your financial help. Find a charity that aligns with your beliefs and take advantage of the tax break afforded. For 2022, deduction limits for charitable gifts are 30% of adjusted gross income (AGI) for contributions of noncash assets, if held more than one year, and 60% of AGI for contributions of cash. There’s also the option of donor advised funds. This concept, which is becoming increasingly popular, allows you to group multiple years donations into one lump sum contribution — an effective strategy during years of a large financial windfall, such as a bonus or an inheritance. The large, grouped contribution also provides the added benefit of a bigger tax deduction.

Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs)

Most FSAs are bank accounts created specifically for health-care costs, but there are also Dependent Care FSAs, which are designed for childcare and adult-care services. These accounts contain pretax dollars for medical expenses, which would help lower your taxable income. Before the end of the year, it’s important to spend any extra funds within the account. Schedule any checkups needed. Make sure your prescriptions are filled. Any money leftover in the account after Dec. 31 will be taxed and, unless your employer allows a certain amount to rollover into the following year, you’ll lose these funds forever.

Rebalance your portfolio

Many people target the end of the year to review the current asset allocation of their investment portfolios. Over the course of a year, the market value of each security you hold earns a different return, often causing the weighting of each asset class to change. You want to make sure that your portfolio stays on or close to the asset allocation strategy that best aligns with your goals, time horizon and tolerance for risk. This is true for IRAs, 401(k)s and nonqualified investment accounts. A financial professional can help you look at your entire picture to determine if any changes should be made.

Remember, it’s important to speak with a tax professional to answer any lingering questions you make have about any tax consequences deriving from the above options.

Ben Soccodato and Chris Kampitsis of The SKG Team at Barnum Financial Group in Elmsford said there’s still time to consider some year-end tax strategies to help mitigate your tax responsibility.

Molinaro delivers farewell address; prepares for Congress

BY PETER KATZ Pkatz@westfairinc.com

Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro has delivered a farewell address to the Dutchess County Legislature before resigning to be sworn in as a Republican congressman representing New York’s 19th Congressional District.

Molinaro plans to resign from the county executive position as of 11:59 a.m. on Jan. 3, the day he is due to take the oath of office in Washington. The balance of his term as Dutchess County executive through Dec. 31, 2023, is to be filled by Deputy County Executive William F. X. O’Neil.

Molinaro will have served for 11 years as county executive and in his Dec. 16 farewell address emphasized his ties to the county.

“A product of three local school districts and graduate from our county’s academic jewel, Dutchess Community College, I met my wife, Corinne, at a John

Flowers celebration, fell in love at a great Dutchess County park, and we continue to raise our family in the corner of Dutchess that raised me,” Molinaro said.

Molinaro noted that he was first elected to office as a village trustee, then mayor, county legislator, state assemblyman and county executive.

“We’ve laughed together, cried together. We’ve triumphed in one another’s joys and mourned each other’s sorrows,” Molinaro said. “We have learned, grown, innovated, and thrived together.”

Molinaro pointed out that throughout his tenure as county executive he worked to cut property taxes.

“We turned budget challenges and a recession-fueled quagmire into the strongest fiscal foundation of any county in New York,” Molinaro said. “We provided meaningful relief cutting county taxes to the lowest in 14 years. And we’ve made government smaller, smarter, and more effective.”

He said other accomplishments during his time as county executive

included bringing innovative mental-health services to Dutchess and providing needed services for children, families, seniors and veterans.

Molinaro expressed a hope that Dutchess would continue to be a place where politicians continue to work across the political aisle and help build the confidence of citizens in government.

“We have repeatedly reached across the aisle, across the state, and across the nation to improve the life of our community and the lives of those who call it home,” Molinaro said. “Our collaborative approach has made an immeasurable impact on the lives of countless county residents. As I leave this office, I trust that sense of cooperation and understanding will long prevail.”

Molinaro said that during his tenure police were funded, victims empowered, small businesses and farmers assisted and the environment protected.

“We protected open space and farmland and led the fight to protect water quality and the Hudson River,” Molinaro

said. “We preserved our rich history, while putting us on the map, making us a popular destination. We supported those who with bright colors and boldness tell, write, paint, and perform the story of who we are and how we hope to live.”

Molinaro acknowledged that his time in office should be judged not only for the successes, but also for the missteps.

“Those (missteps) are mine and mine alone,” he said. “But what I hope might be remembered is that we were not afraid to make mistakes. For it was in those moments that we tested our solutions, pushed our limits, fell but lifted ourselves, and carried on. From the day I took office in January 2012, your faith has inspired me and it is my humble hope that I’ve done good and made you proud. In a matter of days, I assume a new role, one with new challenges and ripe with opportunities, but please know I take you — all of you — and the lessons we’ve learned together with me. Though I leave this place, this place will never leave me.”

Day calls anti-Semitism by celebrities ‘disgusting’

BY PETER KATZ Pkatz@westfairinc.com

Rockland County has for the first time held a Human Rights Breakfast designed to call attention to human rights issues and the increasing number of anti-Semitism incidents while devising ways to deal with the issues. About 100 community, nonprofit, religious and government leaders gathered at the Fire Training Center in Pomona for the event.

The county’s Human Rights Commissioner Spencer Chilmbwe said,  “Every community member has a stake in the human rights business of Rockland County. It is a collective ownership.”

New York State Division of Human Rights Commissioner Maria L. Imperial explained that her department is charged with eliminating discrimination, remedying injustice, and promoting equal opportunity and access.

The breakfast took place on Dec. 9 in advance of International Human Rights Day, which commemorates Dec. 10, 1948, when the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in response to the atrocities of World War II.

“It was a means for world leaders to ensure that ugly chapter in human history

would never again be repeated,” Rockland County Executive Ed Day told the breakfast meeting.

“Despite sharing the same blood, breathing in the same air, holding the same dreams for our families, the disease of

intolerance continues to breed,” Day said. “Decades after that declaration, some still face imprisonment over their sexual orientation or are victimized over the color of their skin or their religious beliefs. We have very recently seen tragedy because of

the spread of intolerance and hatred. We’ve also seen very recently celebrities endorse anti-Semitism and spread their conspiracy theories. This type of behavior is disgusting; there be no mistake about that. And it must be denounced whenever and wherever it arises.”

Day said that it was important for the breakfast to demonstrate that there is so much more that joins people than divides them.

“We need to always focus upon that, which is why this forum, here and now, is crucial to make sure hate never has a home in this county, never gets comfortable being in this county, because discrimination will not and cannot be destroyed from the top down,” Day said. “The issues we face can only be solved from the ground up by a community united. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said the ultimate measure of a man or a woman is not where he or she stands in moments of convenience and comfort but where he or she stands in challenge and controversy. That brings us here today.”

Day had a message for all residents of Rockland.

“To the people of Rockland I say join us. Let’s stand tall together and never ever stop fighting on the good days and the bad for the inalienable rights that we are born with, that we all, in fact, are created equal,” Day said.

Old Towne Hotel to rise from Stamford Savings Bank

BY JUSTIN MCGOWN jmcgown@westfairinc.com

The Stamford Savings Bank building at 160 Atlantic St. was built in 1939 but has been vacant for years. Now, a plan put forward by Old Town Square LLC proposes to use the existing building as the foundation for a 10-story, 84-room hotel in the heart of Downtown Stamford.

The proposal that recently went before the Stamford Planning and Zoning Commission (PZC) reflected heavy changes from plans submitted in 2019 for a hotel which would use the bank building as an entrance hall for the hotel.

Nagi M. Osta and Shalinder Nichani are the listed principals for Old Town Square. John F. X. Leydon Jr., the attorney representing the company for the application, stated the owners’ deep ties to the community.

“Mr. Osta is a long-time businessman in Stamford,” Leydon said, noting that he is the namesake of Nagi Jewelers. “Mr. Nichani is part of a family with numerous business interests, among them hotel operations, including the Hampton Inn at the Mill River Park. They are regular contributors to the

well-being of Stamford.”

Leydon stressed the owners have a vested interest in improving the city and argued that that the hotel would be an excellent way to bring the “vibrancy” found along other streets in the downtown area.

“We’re going to add a 24/7, 365-day-ayear source of life. And we’re going to have a quality restaurant at the ground floor that people patronize,” Leydon said. “We are adjacent to a park which historically has had troubles in part because of the lack of pedestrian activity.”

The original renderings included designs in both a more modern design and a brick faced version. The new proposal will preserve the façade and as many interior details as possible from the existing bank building while adding an additional 11 stories which will be clad in brick and feature paired pillars echoing the Colonial Revival styling of the original.

“It is all about preservation of the building’s history as well as complimenting the beautification of Veteran’s Park which is directly adjacent,” said Sotheby Chung, who joined the call to represent Do H. Chung & Partners, the architectural firm that produced the updated design.

“Part of our due diligence as well as

our redevelopment of the project is to not only build an extension complimentary to the design cues of the present building, it is also to preserve as many of the details as possible and possibly unearthing things we didn’t know about in the close to the 100 years of this building being in operation,” Chung said.

The building was once a branch of the Stamford Savings Bank, which rebranded as First County Bank in 1985. The building borders one edge of Stamford’s Veteran’s Park and is next to an exit ramp for the Stamford Center parking garage.

In 2019, the PZC asked for some significant changes to the initial plan, and the effort was also stymied by confusion about the exact dimensions and zoning of the parcel. During Stamford’s urban renewal era when Landmark Square and Stamford Town Center were built, most of the buildings around the Stamford Savings Bank building were torn down and several streets were removed entirely to make way for the modern development.

The legacy of that confusion drove much of the conversation during the PZC meeting where the updated plans were presented as well. The dimensions of access ramps, number of adjacent parking spac-

es and means of access to bicycle storage were all discussed in depth prior to public comment, and it was agreed that revisions to the proposal along these lines would be necessary. Stamford statute will allow for the hotel to make use of spaces within the Summer Street Garage in order to meet their parking minimum, as it is less than 1,000 feet away from the property.

Public comments were primarily concerned with the potential impact of the hotel on traffic, with some suggesting that Downtown Stamford needs more parking and fewer attractions. One commentator also expressed worry that increased foot traffic through Veteran’s Park would be disrespectful to the memory of veterans.

On the last point, Leydon responded by sharing that the project has received a letter of support from the Stamford Veterans Park Partnership and the Stamford Veterans Council.

“We’re very much bullish on the project,” said David Stein, the PZC chairman. “We thank Nagi and [Shalinder] for working with us and meeting with Stamford Downtown’s Economic Development Subcommittee and answering our questions and also incorporating many of the historic elements.”

Hudson Table provides an interactive dining experience

BY EDWARD ARRIAZA earriaza@westfairinc.com

For those looking beyond the typical dining experience wherein one enters a restaurant and is served a prepared meal, Hudson Table in Stamford may be the solution they’ve been seeking.

First established in Hoboken, New Jersey, in 2014, Hudson Table has since expanded to three more locations in three different states, its latest opening being in Stamford in November.

Occupying retail space at The Hazel, a residential building in 44 John St. in Harbor Point, Hudson Table aims to foster a communal dining experience, one which varies by offering fresh and new activities each visit.

Customers who obtain tickets are provided with cooking demonstrations and handson classes in which chefs and guests closely interact with one another. Guests then put their newly found skills to use then and there, crafting their own meals with the aid and supervision of the chef.

Currently, Hudson Table has a café which is open from Thursday to Saturday with an eye for having it operate the entire work week, from Monday to Friday. Tickets may also be purchased for special dining events such as open houses and chef competitions,

and private events can also be scheduled for parties.

Owner and founder Allen Bari’s ambition in Stamford mirrors his previous goals in prior locations, namely by “activating the space and having a lot of people walking past us and building a name in Stamford so that people think of us for interactive dining experiences, private events, catering services.”

Part of Bari’s vision for the restaurant is to see stronger connections form between customers and chefs, more so than in standard restaurant environments.

“It’s kind of fun to eat directly from the

mind of the person who created it,” he said. “I think the big thing is reconnecting customers to the chefs because I would say with your classic restaurant, you have an executive chef, a sous chef, line cook and then a waiter. By the time it gets to you, you’re five degrees of separation from the actual person creating the menu item that you’re eating.”

These days, the public might be highly receptive to being part of such a connection. Bari has noticed a significant uptick as of late in attendance, which he attributed to people wanting to engage in close social interactions as offered at his restaurants, having been dis-

connected due to years of isolation brought on from the pandemic.

Equally as attractive for individuals wanting a break from the norm is Hudson Table’s approach toward its menu — or rather, menus. Unlike most restaurants with a static, single menu, Hudson Table chefs craft new menus for each occasion.

“We don’t have Hudson Table menus or anything like that,” Bari said, adding that for dining events, “the chef who’s cooking that night created that menu, and the cool thing is you’ll likely never see that menu again,” referring to the roughly 150 menus the restaurant rotates through.

With regards to alcoholic offerings, Bari and his team are brainstorming what he feels are fun ideas for guests.

“We definitely want to do some tasting menus with wine pairings,” he said.

On Jan. 7, there will be a hands-on class — a couples’ night out featuring Chef Gabriel Sather who shall, along with his guests, cook Mexican food such as antojito platters and churros. On Jan. 13, Chef Sather and Chef Koray Karakilic will square off in a threecourse competition, an experience Bari likens to watching cook-off show “Iron Chef.” Customers will act as judges, observing the chefs prepare dishes for them to eat based on “mystery ingredients.”

It’s the most wonderful time of the year, or at least it can be, as long as you don’t have to do all the cooking and the washing-up. If you have slaved in the kitchen through Christmas, or perhaps have had one more drink than was entirely sensible seeing out the old year, here are some suggestions for a relaxing, restorative New Year’s Day brunch:

There are still reservations available for a late Jan. 1 lunch at Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s Inn at Pound Ridge, a restaurant that is as enchanting when the snow is on the ground as it is at the height of summer. All the usual brunch suspects await — buttermilk pancakes, eggs Benedict — as well as some less usual ones, like Jean-Georges’ signature black truffle and fontina pizza. But usual or unusual, no restaurant delivers with as much panache as Jean-Georges’ always welcoming, always “in” inn.

At The Wheel in Stamford, where every lunch and dinner service feels like a party but the sympathetic acoustics mean you can make yourself heard above the general hubbub, the staff will be serving brunch as well as dinner on New Year’s Day. A dozen East Coast oysters followed by braised short-rib hash would seem like a civilized start to anyone’s new year. The Wheel also has an excellent cocktail program. Cozy up to the bartenders and, although not on the list, have them whisk you up a prairie oyster, the traditional hangover — sorry, “morning after” — cure.

Speaking of mornings after, and I do so love a euphemism, I won’t say that the carbohydrate fix of pasta is just what the doctor ordered, but I will mention that I’m a great fan of Rosina’s in Greenwich, which does a first-rate lasagna and an equally

TABLE TALK

A New Year’s brunch bunch

JEREMY WAYNE

Hotel consultant, travel writer and longtime restaurant editor for Condé Nast, Jeremy Wayne loves casual, unpretentious restaurants serving food which is genuinely seasonal, local and sustainable, while simultaneously lamenting the disappearance of linen tablecloths and the demise of the three-martini lunch. “These are the two sides of my split restaurant personality,” he confides, while also fessing up to his personal travel mantra. “The day to book your next vacation,” says Jeremy, is the day you come home from one.”

fine pappardelle Bolognese. There’s a great drinks program, too, run by celebrity local mixologist Juan Meyer. If I stop by on New Year’s morning, which I am very likely to do, I’ll barely be able to resist a Vintage Negroni (in which Carpano Antica vermouth is the wizard ingredient). But I’ll be equally tempted by a Fernet-Branca on the rocks. Fernet, of course, is the Italian amaro that sorts “the men from the boys,” as they used to say, and is the acknowledged king of “morning after” cures.

Still with the morning tremblies, two of the specialties at Irvington’s highly regarded Indian restaurant, Chutney Masala Indian Bistro — a soothing chicken masala or a blow-your-head-off lamb vindaloo — are well-known remedies for any previous night’s overindulgence. It’s also heartening to note that at a time when restaurateurs themselves are struggling, Chutney Masala contributes to a number of local charities, including Feeding Westchester and Food Across America.

If curry is not your bag, think “clean” Japanese cuisine instead. Raw or barely cooked fish or shellfish is a great way to detox. Hinoki, the sophisticated Greenwich restaurant that I glowingly reviewed earlier

this year, https://www.wagmag.com/goodeats-on-the-avenue/ does a wonderful black cod served with miso soup at lunchtime and the sushi and sashimi, always piningly fresh, is second to none. Favorites — if I must: The fatty tuna is superb, and it is peak season right now for uni (sea urchin), either Japanese or Californian. And do remember that sake, crystal clear and preferably drunk cold, is much lower in potency than you might imagine: At around 40%, it is less than half the proof of gin or whiskey. Drink and enjoy.

A bountiful seafood paella, heady with saffron, strikes me as an elegant dish with which to start the year. That’s what you’ll find at La Plage, the restaurant at the Inn at Longshore in Westport, along with dishes like grilled seafood salad (sounds odd, but works) and a luxurious crab cake Benedict, all with a view of the sea, the sea, the beautiful sea— captivating even in winter.

It may be winter in the Northeast but in Mexico and central America it’s sizzling right now. So, too, is the scene — and at least half the menu — at Happy Monkey in Greenwich — Jean-Georges’ other restaurant in our area, which opened to great aplomb in July 2022. https://west-

faironline.com/food-beverage/jean-georges-monkey-business/ What better way to start the year than with spicy huevos rancheros, sizzling shrimp with garlic and wonderful chipotle chicken with grilled jalapeño salsa in this convivial Greenwich Avenue setting?

Finally, never knock the chains — especially on a holiday. With kids in tow, it’s good to know that all branches of IHOP (International House of Pancakes) (for chocolate chip pancakes and more) and The Cheesecake Factory (for just about everything, and still good value in my view) will be open New Year’s Day. For more urbane tastes and large appetites, meanwhile, though closed for lunch, Morton’s the Steakhouse in White Plains will open for dinner from 5 p.m. as usual on New Year’s Day.

A couple of martinis and a 36-ounce tomahawk ribeye to begin the year? Start as you mean to continue, I say.
