Las Vetas Lounge expects to reopen around July 1

FAIRFIELD – The longtime Las Vetas Lounge coffee shop and local music venue plans on reopening around July 1 at 1640 Post Road, which is down the street from its former Unquowa Road location, according to owner Andrew Servetas.

The new spot will be the third for Las Vetas in its 20+year existence –all in or around downtown on Post Road. Servetas had to look for a new space for the eatery when the landlord of 27 Unquowa Road sent him a letter asking he vacate the premises

two street level retail shops. Forest had sued the town after the PZC denied the application.

As for Servetas, who was working with a crew to move in to the new location on Friday, April 10, he sees the move as a blessing in disguise.

“I really do think it is orchestrated by the Good Lord because it’s a miracle,” he said. “This guy (the owner of 1640 Post Road) finally came through not to do it with the highest and so he came down to earth and let the local guy go in.

New Rochelle residents sue to stop 28-story structure

Residents of Davenport Lofts in New Rochelle who depict themselves as urban pioneers have sued the city and a developer to restrict a proposed residential tower near their building.

The city planning board failed to consider traffic, parking, pollution, neighborhood density and shadowing, according to a petition filed on March 27 in Westchester Supreme Court, when on Feb. 24 it approved plans by Crossroads Centre LLC to build a 28-story high-rise apartment building.

"After ten years of construction, noise and daily disruption due to the attempted redevelopment of the area," five residents claim, "they reside in an overcrowded and congested neighborhood with quality of life at risk ... by further development."

"It appears that these parties don't

want anything built," the developer's attorney, Mark Weingarten, stated in a brief telephone interview. "It wouldn't matter what we did on this project."

Davenport Lofts is a 6-story structure built in 1914, on Leroy Place, a one-block, one-way street. It originally housed Ware's Department Store and later a Bloomingdales. In 2004, after laying vacant for many years, it was converted to condominiums.

The petitioners – Shaun Wayawotzki, Jim Killoran, Marian Whitaker, Serge Vecher, and Thandiwe WattsJones – were among the new residents "serving as pioneers believing in and investing in the revitalization of downtown New Rochelle."

A decade after Davenport Lofts opened, the city approved an ambitious plan to redevelop downtown New

Claim the high-rise will impact their condos

Rochelle with 5,500 residential units. Since then, 25 buildings with more than 5,000 units have been completed, according to the petition.

More than half of the new housing is within 600 feet of the Davenport Lofts, according to the petition, in an area that accounts for only 9% of the development zone.

Crossroads Centre LLC, also referred to as Allstate Ventures, is a developer based in Monroe, Orange County that is associated with Mikel Jeremias. Crossroads' plan is to build a 28-story structure at 570 Main Street, adjacent to the Davenport Lofts, with 504 residences and 371 parking spaces.

The petitioners claim that the highrise will increase traffic, impede parking, block sunlight, increase pollution, and possibly jeopardize the foundation of their 112-year-old building.

In March 2025, according to the petition, a traffic consultant told the

planning board that a previous study of 29 street intersections determined that 21 would fail if developments were completed. And he said the Crossroads would be about 100 parking spaces short of city requirements.

A 2025 parking study found that in most places downtown the demand for parking is nearly three times higher than the supply.

The 28-story structure would be 30 feet from Davenport Lofts, and on most days put the 6-story building in shadows by noon, the petition states. The plans also call for excavations for a 3-story underground garage, six feet from the Davenport Lofts' foundation.

The petitioners claim that the planning board acted capriciously and arbitrarily by failing to take a hard look "at real-world environmental impacts," as required by the state environmental conservation law.

They are asking the court to annul the planning board's approval of Crossroads' site plan, and prohibit construction until the developer produces a full environmental impact statement.

Weingarten said Crossroads made significant design changes, such as moving the building 30 feet, after public hearings and receiving comments from neighbors. "Despite our efforts, five individuals have decided to try to stop the project."

Apple Store at Trumbull Mall slated to close soon

TRUMBULL – The Apple Store at Trumbull Mall is one of three that will close across the country due to “declining conditions,” the parent company Apple Inc. announced late last week.

For the Trumbull Mall, the closure marks a disappointing trend for the shopping center whose owner has defaulted on a $152.3 million loan for the 5065 Main St. property and finds itself in bankruptcy court.

The court-appointed receiver of the 62-year-old Trumbull Mall has hired Newmark Group as the company with exclusive rights to seek investors to purchase the financially troubled mall. Creditors foreclosed last year on the property after Namdar Realty Group defaulted on the loan.

The Cupertino, California-based Apple released the following statement April 9 when it announced the planned closures.

“At Apple, we are constantly striving to deliver exceptional service and great experiences for our customers. As we continue investing to expand and enhance our retail stores and offerings worldwide, we remain deliberate about evaluating our exist-

Yale New Haven Health expands medical offices in Stratford

STRATFORD – Yale New Haven Health (YNHHS) has opened new medical offices for gastroenterology, internal medicine and family medicine, as well as a blood draw station, at 2909 Main St. in Stratford.

The new offices consolidate several local practices and expand Yale New Haven Health’s footprint at the Stratford location and join existing services at the location, including radiology.

“This consolidation and expansion reflects our commitment to convenience and meeting people where they are,” said Jorge Rodriguez, executive vice president and chief ambulatory officer for YNHHS. “By bringing

more primary and specialty care services directly into the community, we’re making it easier for patients and families to get the care they need, closer to home.”

The addition of these services supports Yale New Haven Health’s ongoing efforts to promote greater access, continuity of care and convenience for patients throughout the region.

“These new offices reflect our continued investment in the health of our communities and our promise to deliver coordinated, patient-centered care that is accessible, seamless and convenient,” said Dr. Patrick Kenney, chief ambulatory physician executive for YNHHS.

ing locations to ensure that we can meet our customers’ needs in the best way.

“Following the departure of several retailers and declining conditions at Trumbull Mall, the Shops at North County, and Towson Town Center, we’ve made the difficult decision to close our stores at these locations.

“Our team members at Trumbull and North County will continue their roles at nearby Apple Retail stores. Towson employees will be eligible to apply for open roles at Apple in accordance with the collective bargaining agreement. We look forward to continuing to serve customers at nearby stores and on Apple.com [apple.com], the Apple Store app, and at Apple Authorized Resellers and Service Providers throughout the states.”

Once the store closes, Connecticut will be left with fewer Apple locations, with the nearest alternatives in Norwalk, Danbury, and New Haven.

In a written statement posted on the town website, Trumbull First Selectman Vicky Tesoro said she “is deeply disappointed by Apple’s decision to leave the Trumbull Mall.”

“The region has come to depend on the store for technology services and for employment,” she added. “This closure leaves a major gap in services for customers. We will be reaching out to Apple to ask them to reconsider closure of the Trumbull location. Customers can also express their disappointment in the closure directly to Apple at (408) 996-1010 and request them to reconsider their decision.”

A customer walking through the Trumbull Mall last week took video of a closed Apple Store with a sign that read: “

In the summer of 2025, the town updated its plan to transform the Trumbull Mall district when it released its Trumbull Area Market Feasibility and Land Use Study. Tesoro said that the town continues to “stack up potential opportunities for the future as the disposition of the property ownership plays out over the coming months.”

The town hopes to create a new mixed-use district that would encompass the mall and include senior housing, a hotel, a prepared fresh foods grocer, innovation and research employment space, as well as a recreation and wellness area.

Tredway closes on Peekskill apartment purchase

Westfair’s Westchester County Business Journal reported on March 3 that New York City-based real estate developer Tredway, through the entity Peekskill Plaza Owner LLC, was seeking to acquire the Peekskill Plaza Apartments at 901-907 Main St., in downtown Peekskill. On April 8, Tredway announced that it has closed on the purchase.

Peekskill Plaza is a senior affordable housing community. Tredway says that its acquisition and recapitalization of the property will preserve long-term affordability, fund capital improvements and resident services. All units will be maintained as affordable for households earning at or below 60% of Area Median Income (AMI).

As part of the acquisition, Tredway is committing over $4.5 million in capital improvements, the implementation of a social services program to support residents’ health and well-being, a partnership with the City of Peekskill on workforce development

initiatives, and the placement of a full-time, on-site property manager to ensure responsiveness to residents’ needs.

The 168-unit senior affordable housing community was constructed in 1980 and has a seven-story brick building and three two-story garden-style buildings. The site also has 11,000 square feet of commercial and retail space. It had been owned by Courtyard Housing LLC.

Will Blodgett, CEO of Tredway said, “This investment will help ensure the senior residents of Peekskill Plaza can continue living with dignity, stability, and security for years to come. We are proud to partner with the City of Peekskill, the PIDA, and our state partners, whose collaboration has been essential in bringing this project to fruition. We look forward to deepening our roots in the community and making investments that enhance residents’ day-to-day quality of life.”

The project will receive a newly extended 40 year Payment In Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) through the Peek-

skill Industrial Development Agency. The property will also benefit from expanded rental assistance through the City’s Section 8 program. As part of the PILOT agreement, Tredway will make a one-time $3.8 million contribution to the City to support the City’s infrastructure repairs. SVN brokered the transaction.

Tredway was founded in 2021 and says that its mission is to create and preserve affordable housing nationwide. The company acquires and rehabilitates existing affordable housing units in addition to developing new housing. Tredway manages a national portfolio of more than 5,300 multifamily units, with an additional 1,500 units in active development.

According to Tredway, the complex had been the site of drug activity and unauthorized entry. The company said as the new owner it would improve building safety by addressing deferred maintenance, eliminating the need for permanent scaffolding, and implementing modern security and management practices. It would restrict building access to residents and authorized visitors through new access control systems, expand and

upgrade security camera coverage to eliminate blind spots, and increase onsite security staffing to ensure consistent monitoring and rapid response. Tredway previously had put total acquisition costs at $33,731,009, consisting of $2,270,000 for the land, $20,430,000 for the buildings, $4,859,278 for reconstruction costs, $2,371,731 for soft costs such as professional services and $3,800,000 in additional costs.

COURTS

Mount Vernon business couple charged with larceny and tax fraud

A married couple who are the owners of a Mount Vernon retail business have been arrested and arraigned on tax-related charges, according to Westchester County District Attorney Susan Cacace. The business the couple owns and operates is known as the Mangoville Meat & Grocery store. It functions as a meat market, grocery store and restaurant with a menu of prepared food offerings, often catering to Caribbean or diverse culinary tastes.

According to Cacace, Estrado Willis and Eleanor Willis, 45 and 46 years old respectively, were arraigned on charges of Grand Larceny in the Second Degree, Criminal Tax Fraud in the Third Degree, Criminal Tax

Fraud in the Fourth Degree and Offering a False Instrument for Filing in the First Degree, all felonies. The defendants appeared before Mount Vernon City Court Judge Nichelle Johnson and were released on their own recognizance.

The charges stem from the defendant’s alleged failure to report personal income and their failure to remit sales tax funds to the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance collected from sales at their store from March, 2018 through April, 2025. These funds are said by the District Attorney’s Office to amount to approximately $76,000.

According to the district attorney’s office, Eleanor Willis and Estrado Willis also allegedly received income

from Mangoville, as well as income from other sources, but knowingly failed to include all the income they received on tax returns filed with New York state. It’s alleged that when the defendants filed personal income tax returns with the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance for tax years 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 they did so with the intent to defraud.

Cacace said, “This arrest sends a clear message: individuals who attempt to evade their tax obligations will be held accountable. Our office is committed to protecting the integrity of the financial system and ensuring fairness to all taxpayers.”

The investigation was conducted by the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance with District Attorney Cacace’s office handling the prosecution.

AG James names Westchester sites in settlement with NY-Presbyterian

New York Attorney General Letitia James on April 13 announced a settlement agreement with New York-Presbyterian Hospital following an investigation into the way the health care provider has treated some patients with mental health issues. NY-Presbyterian is paying $500,000 for its misconduct and faces a $10,000 penalty per violation for any future violations of the settlement terms.

The investigation by James’ office found a pattern of failures that put vulnerable patients at risk. Failures included not properly evaluating and stabilizing patients in emergency departments, leaving critical psychiatric beds offline during a worsening mental health crisis, and frequently diverting ambulances from bringing mental health patients to the emergency department. The settlement

requires NY-Presbyterian to implement extensive reforms to better serve emergency department patients experiencing mental health and substance use challenges and improve its screening, stabilization, and documentation procedures.

The settlement said that NY-Presbyterian operates 10 hospital campuses in New York City and Westchester and named Hudson Valley Hospital in Cortlandt Manor and NY-Presbyterian Westchester in Bronxville.

“Mental health care is necessary medical care, and hospitals have a legal and moral obligation to treat these crises with urgency and compassion,”

James said. “These sweeping reforms will protect patients, strengthen oversight, and help ensure that no one is left without care in their most vulnerable moments.”

The attorney general’s investigation found that patients were routinely dis-

charged without the care, stability, or follow-up support they needed, and NY-Presbyterian’s records did not always include complete or accurate documentation.

In multiple cases, patients experiencing serious psychiatric symptoms left the hospital before being properly discharged or transferred due to inadequate supervision and safety protocols, putting both patients and the public at potential risk, the investigation found.

The investigation found that NY-Presbyterian failed to bring all of its licensed inpatient psychiatric beds back online after the Covid-19 pandemic, despite clear legal requirements and growing demand for care. The settlement said that 23 beds at NY-Presbyterian Westchester Behavioral Health had been taken out of service as a result of Covid and not timely restored. The settlement requires Westchester Behavioral Health to add two inpatient psychiatric beds, for a total of 235 licensed and operational inpatient psychiatric beds, by December 2026.

“Mental health care is necessary medical care, and hospitals have a legal and moral obligation to treat these crises with urgency and compassion.”

The settlement specifies that NY-Presbyterian must strengthen its screening policies to identify risks such as suicide, violence, and substance use, with required follow-up assessments and ongoing reassessment for higher-risk patients. It must also strengthen patient safety and monitoring, including establishing mandatory observation protocols, maintaining monitoring logs, and documenting clinical decisions. If a high-need patient goes missing, staff must immediately escalate the situation, notify leadership, and fully document and review each incident.

Mixed-use 28-story 414-unit building planned for North Avenue in New Rochelle

The entity 260 N LLC is proposing to construct a new 28-story, 414-unit apartment building with 7,000 square feet of retail space on the ground floor at 260 North Ave. in New Rochelle. The project would need site plan approval from the city’s Planning Board.

The project has been named “260 North” and was designed by Papp Architects, which is based in White Plains. The building would include a mix of studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom units, onsite parking for 432 cars, and amenities for residents that include a roof deck with a pool.

The plan for retail on the ground floor includes a 4,000-square-feet space intended for a restaurant and 3,000 square feet of miscellaneous retail spaces.

Architect Philip Fruchter told Westfair’s Westchester County Business Journal that the location “acts as the gateway into downtown after crossing the Metro-North overpass on North Avenue. To celebrate the gateway, we designed a building with a curved prominent corner creating a multi-story rotunda featuring a site-specific art installation. To activate the streetscape, we have located retail spaces on all three sides of the building and inserted landscaped perennial

planting beds into the sidewalks and enhanced the traffic island on North Avenue with landscaping.”

According to Fruchter, the site is on a corner of North Avenue at the intersection with Huguenot Street that presently is owned and occupied by Citizens Bank, NA. The bank is in contract to sell the 32,800-square-feet site to 260 N LLC. The existing building on the site is 14,671 square feet and was built in 1926. The bank has committed to reoccupy 3,500 square feet of ground floor space after construction of the new tower is completed. The bank will continue to have a drivethrough ATM and street-level parking for bank customers. Citizens Bank will relocate to a temporary location during construction.

“The location acts as the gateway into downtown.”

Other requirements include NY-Presbyterian improving its electronic health record system to ensure providers have real-time access to complete patient information and can follow care protocols. NY-Presbyterian also is required to ensure that patients with complex needs leave the hospital with appropriate follow-up care, including scheduled appointments and connections to ongoing services.

— Philip Fruchter, Papp Architects

Fruchter pointed out that the exterior building design features a green-tinted and clear glass and metal curtain wall with Virginia black granite and foamed aluminum wall panels on the ground floor. He explained that the exterior includes recessed accent balconies and that the existing traffic island on North Avenue is proposed to be enhanced with landscaping.

The site for the new building is one block from the New Rochelle Transit Center. New Rochelle has a project to transform the station into a modern, pedestrian-friendly transit hub. The estimated cost of the transformation is $100 million to $125 million. It’s estimated that the Transit Center project could be completed late next year or early in 2028.

Attorney Anthony B. Gioffre III of the White Plains law firm of Cuddy and Feder is representing the developer as the proposed 260 North building undergoes New Rochelle’s review process.

“Eliot Engel devoted his lifetime to public service.” — George Latimer

Former Rep. Elliot Engel dies at age 79

“The NFL clearly stands apart in terms of trust, but it’s not without skepticism.”

Former U.S. representative Elliot Engel, who served 16 terms in Congress and represented part of Westchester and the Bronx, has died on April 10 at age 79. Engel was born on Feb. 18, 1947, in the Bronx. The cause of Engel’s death was not immediately announced.

He attended Bronx public schools, Herbert H. Lehman College and New York Law School. He was elected to the New York State Assembly in 1977 and served there through 1988. In November of 1988, he was elected to Congress, serving on Capitol Hill from 1989 through 2021. Engel lost a primary for the Democratic nomination to run for another term to Jamaal Bowman, who was elected in 2020 to the New York 16th Congressional District seat.

Engel was an outspoken liberal voice both in Washington and in his home district. He was often seen at events in Westchester, especially those that advocated liberal causes.

Engel was one of the most consis -

tently pro-Israel representatives on Capitol Hill.

U.S. Rep. George Latimer, who now serves in the New York 16th Congressional District seat once held by Engel, said, "Eliot Engel devoted his lifetime to public service - as a teacher and as an elected official in Albany and Washington D.C.

His legacy consists of hard work on issues and kindness to all. His work in helping bring peace to the Balkans in the 1990s was a major accomplishment, among many others. We mourn with his family, and extend to them our deepest condolences. May he rest in peace."

Westchester County Executive Ken Jenkins said, “We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of former Congressman Eliot Engel, a tireless public servant who devoted more than three decades to representing the people of New York.

“Throughout his career, Congressman Engel was a fierce advocate for his constituents in Westchester and the Bronx. He was a champion of

human rights and as Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, he helped shape U.S. policy on the global stage while never losing sight of the needs of the communities he represented at home.

“His legacy is one of commitment, conviction and service. He understood that public office is a responsibility to speak up, to stand firm and to deliver for the people who entrusted him with their voice.

“We extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends and all those who had the privilege of working alongside him. His impact will be felt for generations.”

U.S. Rep. Ritchie Torres of the Bronx praised Engel as "a giant of New York politics and one of the greatest champions the Bronx has ever had in Congress. He served for more than three decades with unyielding dedication, fighting for his constituents and standing up for democracy around the world. He was a trailblazer for the Bronx in Washington, and a fierce advocate for Kosovo and the Albanian community at a time when few others

Poll: NFL most trusted league, NBA least trusted on integrity

Heart University

FAIRFIELD — A new national poll from Sacred Heart University and GreatBlue Research finds that public trust in professional sports leagues varies widely, with the NFL viewed as the most trusted league to protect the integrity of its games.

Meanwhile, the poll found that the NBA draws the most skepticism. According to the 2026 Sacred Heart University Nationwide Sports Gambling Poll:

• The NFL ranks first as the most trusted league with 31.7% of Americans saying it protects game integrity

• The NBA ranks second in trust (10.6%), but also appears most frequently as the least trusted league, with 19.1% of respondents

selecting it

• The NFL is also cited by 15.6% as least trusted, highlighting polarized views around the nation’s most prominent leagues

• MLB was third with 7.5% as most trusted and 7% as least trusted

• The NHL was fourth with 5.1% as most trusted and 3.8% as least trusted

These findings point to a complex and divided public perception of professional sports, emerging at a time when legalized sports betting and league partnerships have become far more visible.

“The NFL clearly stands apart in terms of trust, but it’s not without skepticism,” said Andrew Miller, director of Sacred Heart’s sports communication & media graduate program. “At the same time, the NBA’s position on both

ends of the spectrum suggests Americans are more conflicted about its ability to safeguard competitive integrity.”

TRUST GAP EMERGES AS BETTING EXPANDS

The data come amid broader concerns about the influence of sports gambling on professional leagues:

• 59.3% of Americans believe sports gambling creates incentives that could compromise competitive integrity

• 48% say gambling has changed how leagues make decisions around rules, scheduling or officiating

were paying attention."

New York Attorney General Letitia James said, “For over three decades, Congressman Eliot Engel dedicated himself to serving New Yorkers in Westchester and the Bronx, and New York is grateful for his service to our state. My deepest condolences to his family and loved ones. May his memory be a blessing.”

Gov. Kathy Hochul said, “The son of Ukrainian-Jewish immigrants, Eliot Engel brought the best of the Bronx to Congress. I had the honor of serving alongside Eliot, who fought tirelessly for the people he served. I’m keeping his family and loved ones in my thoughts today.”

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer recalled, “Even as he took on the weight of global challenges he carried the Bronx and Westchester with him. From building Mitchell Lama affordable housing to expanding health care coverage, to improving maternity care, to fighting for sensible gun control laws, he leaves behind a rich legacy of advocacy and impact.”

• 38.9% report feeling skeptical of injury reports or officiating due to gambling partnerships Together, these perceptions help explain why public trust varies so sharply across leagues, particularly as betting becomes more embedded in the sports experience.

With the NFL draft and NBA playoffs drawing intense national attention, the poll suggests fans are watching not just the games, but the systems behind them.

“Moments like the NFL drafts and the NBA playoffs put leagues under a microscope,” said Josh Shuart, director and professor of SHU’s sport management program. “As betting becomes more integrated into the fan experience, so too does public scrutiny around fairness, transparency and decision-making.”

ABOUT THE POLL

The Sacred Heart University 2026 Nationwide Sports Gambling Poll was conducted Feb. 2–5, 2026, among 1,500 U.S. adults. The survey carries a margin of error of +/- 2.43% at a 95% confidence level. The sample was weighted according to age, gender and U.S. Census region.

Ulster Legislature to take up proposal to ban masks by ICE and other law enforcement

The Ulster County Legislature is expected on April 21 to take up a resolution that would schedule a public hearing and allow it to move forward with consideration of a new local law that would ban law enforcement from wearing masks and not showing proper identification in the county.

The legislation is titled the “Baseline Standards for Law Enforcement Identifiability Law.” It would establish a presumption against the use of facial- concealing masks unless there is a specific operational necessity, such as undercover work, emergency protective equipment, or other narrowly defined circumstances. Officers engaged in public-facing law enforcement activity would be required to display visible identification, such as a last name, badge number, or unique identifying number, and to provide that information verbally upon request.

The move to pass the new law follows numerous nationwide complaints

about the Trump administration sending masked ICE agents into U.S. cities and agents who had no visible identification violating the civil rights of people who were acting lawfully.

“Public trust is the foundation of public safety,” said Ulster County Executive Jen Metzger. “When someone is stopped, questioned, or directed by law enforcement, they should be able to clearly identify who is exercising authority over them.”

Metzger characterized the proposed law as a “common- sense standard that will protect the public and officers, alike, by reducing confusion, preventing impersonation, and strengthening transparency.”

The proposed law gained the endorsement of Ulster County Sheriff Juan Figueroa.

“Anonymity undermines oversight and transparency,” Figueroa said. “While masking can be justified in confidential investigations, it is unnecessary in routine operations.

Public trust diminishes when law enforcement creates fear rather than communicating with common sense transparency.”

If an officer or agency fails to comply with the law, the matter would be reviewed through an administrative process. All complaints would be handled by the Ulster County Hu-

Solar generating and storage development at Croton-Harmon train station acquired

Altus Power, which is based in Stamford, has acquired a solar generating and battery storage facility at the Croton-Harmon train station in Croton-on-Hudson from Arevon, an energy company based in Scottsdale, Arizona. Arevon had worked on developing the project with Sol Systems of Washington, D.C., which served as the project developer, construction manager and asset manager.

When asked by Westfair’s Westchester County Business Journal, a spokesperson for Altus declined to disclose the purchase price.

The solar generating project at the train station features canopies with about 10,000 solar panels over certain areas where cars are parked that can produce 4.2 million watts of electricity. There is a battery storage system that can store 15 megawatt hours of electricity, enough to supply a million watts of electricity for 15 hours.

The project will deliver the solar-generated electricity to customers that include Columbia University, which will be buying it through Con Edison, residential apartment buildings and a local medical center.

“Battery storage is essential to a stable, reliable and cost-effective energy grid,” said Abhi Parmar, chief investment officer of Altus Power. “As the industry rapidly evolves, Altus is committed to the implementation and build out for our stakeholders in New York.”

Altus said that the acquisition reflects a strategy of expanding its portfolio with high-quality assets that combine solar generation with storage. The company now owns and operates more than 80 projects that produce a total of approximately 266 megawatts of electricity in New York state. It has facilities in 30 states and the District of Columbia.

The Croton-Harmon solar project at the train station began

The attorneys would determine whether a violation occurred and whether a warning, corrective order, or civil penalty is appropriate.

in 2020 when the Village of Croton-on-Hudson released a Request for Proposals for the installation of solar canopies at the station. It was sent to 168 solar contractors. A total of seven proposals were received. Croton-on-Hudson’s Sustainability Committee, village staff and the Village Board of Trustees reviewed the various proposals and ultimately signed a lease agreement with Sol Systems. Before construction began, the project went through reviews including by the Village Planning Board, Village Zoning Board of Appeals, Village Waterfront Advisory Committee and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. Construction was delayed by Covid and began in late 2022. Beginning in December of 2024, Sol Systems and its successor Arevon began making lease payments to the village, which are expected to total about $12 million over the 25-year lease that covers use of the parking lot site.

The 'counterweight' gets heavier 1

New York Attorney General Letitia James on April 13 announced a settlement agreement with New York-Presbyterian Hospital following an investigation into the way the health care provider has treated some patients with mental health issues. NY-Presbyterian is paying $500,000 for its misconduct and faces a $10,000 penalty per violation for any future violations of the settlement terms.

When Pope Leo XIV was elected last May 8, becoming the first U.S.born pontiff, many saw him as a counterweight to President Donald J. Trump, a view that would come to be shared by Trump himself. Perhaps few, however, would have imagined that the two would square off on a global stage over the most existential issues –war and peace, death and life.

Yet that is exactly what has happened. In an excoriating post on Truth Social, the president has accused the pope of being part of the American radical left, weak on crime and terrible at foreign policy. He said he was not true MAGA like Louis Marius Prevost, the U.S. Navy veteran who is the older of the pope’s two older brothers, and implied that Pope Leo was ungrateful, since he owed his papacy to the president.

(While Roman Catholics believe the Holy Spirit is at work in the College of Cardinals’ selection of the pope, the president may have a point, although not in the way he imagines. Again, see the counterweight argument.)

Trump also posted a picture of himself as Jesus that critics quickly labeled blasphemous. Though the president said he was portraying himself as a healer, the image was removed. However, Trump said he will not apologize to Pope Leo.

For his part, Leo – in a manner echoing Jesus before Pontius Pilate –

said on his flight to Algeria, part of a four-country African tour: “I have no fear, neither of the Trump Administration, nor of speaking out loudly about the message of the Gospel. And that’s what I believe I am called here to do.”

Although even a pope can throw a bit of shade: Asked about Trump’s Truth Social post, the pontiff, whose sense of humor tends more toward the nerdy, said: “It’s ironic – the name of the site itself. Say no more.”

If Leo seems serene in the maelstrom that may be because this is not a fight of his own volition, said Daniel Rober, Ph.D., associate professor of Catholic Studies and chair of the Catholic Studies department at Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, where he contributes to the school’s Cor Ecclesiae podcast on all things Catholic and papal. Rather, he added, “Pope Leo is enunciating basic ideas from ancient Catholic sources” while also aligning himself with the popes of the modern era, who denounced war. They range from Benedict XV in World War I; to Pope Paul VI in his “Never Again War” speech at the United Nations on Oct. 4 (St. Francis of Assisi’s feast day), 1965; to Pope St. John Paul II’s pleas in 2003 to the U.S. not to invade Iraq.

In the run-up to the Iraq War, then-President George W. Bush and John Paul agreed diplomatically to disagree, Rober said. The Trump-Leo face-off is unprecedented, but that

doesn’t mean it hasn’t been building a long time – from initial conservative skepticism about Leo, a registered Republican, after his election to the papacy; through to the pope and U.S. bishops’ criticism of the Trump Administration’s handling of the migrant situation and wars in Gaza and Iran.

Indeed, Trump’s post on Leo – on April 12, Divine Mercy Sunday in the Catholic Church – follows a controversial April 6 article in The Free Press that had the Pentagon allegedly threatening the pope via a meeting with then-papal nuncio Cardinal Christoph Pierre that invoked the Avignon Papacy. (The Avignon Papacy, in which the French controlled the Holy See through a succession of seven pontiffs, began with the kidnapping and murder of Pope Boniface VIII in 1303.)

While the Pentagon and the Vatican have said the meeting has been mischaracterized, Rober said that it was “contentious.” But he added that the notion that it was what led to Leo’s decision not to visit the U.S. for its 250th birthday is the stuff of influencers’ fancy. There was never any real chance Leo was going to be here for that anniversary. (He will instead receive the nonpartisan Liberty Medal July 3 via video.)

A more pointed reaction to U.S.-Vatican relations, Rober said, was the pope’s decision to visit Lampedusa, an Italian island that is a gateway to

Europe for migrants, instead on July 4. What does all this mean for Catholic voters, the majority of whom supported Trump in 2024? Catholics are traditionally swing voters, Rober said, and they are likely to swing again. While the attack on Leo will not be the deciding factor, he added, it helps fuel the growing criticism the president faces on his policies.

What everyone should know about rabies

With the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) temporarily pausing tests for rabies and pox viruses, the family of viruses that includes smallpox and mpox, and a rabid coyote attacking people and dogs in the Eastchester-Bronxville area on March 9,  a discussion of rabies awareness has rarely been more relevant.

The viral disease – which spreads through bites or contact with saliva from infected animals and affects the nervous system – is almost always fatal once a person develops symptoms. Nevertheless, it is preventable if exposure is recognized early and treatment begins promptly. In New York, common wildlife with the potential

for becoming rabid includes coyotes, raccoons, skunks, bats, foxes and groundhogs. Under New York and Connecticut laws, owners of dogs, cats and ferrets must vaccinate their pets against rabies or face stiff fines – and in Connecticut’s case, even imprisonment. (On Sunday, April 19, Westchester County was scheduled to hold a free rabies vaccine clinic for pets at Stamen Animal Hospital in New Rochelle.)

“To protect yourself and your family, verify that your pets’ rabies vaccines are up to date, and arrange for a free booster shot if needed,” Sherlita Amler, M.D., Westchester County Department of Health commissioner, said in a statement. “If you, your child or your pet is bitten or scratched by someone

“To protect yourself and your family, verify that your pets’ rabies vaccines are up to date…”

else’s pet, wash the wound right away, seek medical attention immediately, call the Health Department (914-8135000) and get the name and address of the owner so that the biting pet’s rabies vaccine records can be verified. That way, the bite victim may be able to avoid a series of rabies shots.”

HOW WILDLIFE ENDS UP ON YOUR PROPERTY

LONG-TERM PROTECTION – PROFESSIONAL WILDLIFE EXCLUSION

— Sherlita Amler, M.D., Westchester County Department of Health commissioner

Wild animals seek food, water and shelter. Unsecured trash, food or water bowls, bird feeders and open spaces under decks, porches or in attics make yards and homes attractive and easy for animals to access. When an animal finds a reliable resource, it is likely to visit again, increasing the potential for contact with people and pets, along with health hazards and property damage.

PRACTICAL STEPS TO REDUCE YOUR RISK

One of the most effective ways to prevent exposure to rabies is to make your property less attractive to wildlife.

• Remove food enticements, securing garbage with tight lids.

• Clean up fallen fruit, bird seed and yard debris.

• Seal gaps, vents and openings around your home.

• Keep lawns trimmed and eliminate hiding spots.

• Supervise pets and children, especially at dawn and dusk when coyotes and other nocturnal animals are most active.

• Eliminate standing water and close off easy water sources (such as pet bowls and unattended bird baths).

Using lights, noise and repellents can help keep animals away for a short time. For lasting results, the best approach is to keep animals out of your home and yard. Professional wildlife exclusion services inspect your property, remove animals if needed and seal entry points such as vents, chimneys, eaves and garage edges.

Many homeowners seek permanent, chemical-free solutions that prevent wildlife from returning.

At JP McHale Pest Management LLC, headquartered in Buchanan, our Home Shield Exclusion System uses several types of barriers on the outside of your home to close off common entry points, like eaves, vents, doors, windows and foundation seams. By sealing gaps and cracks from top to bottom, this system creates a strong barrier to keep animals out. It’s a chemical-free approach that is preventive rather than reactive and designed for long-term protection.

BALANCING PUBLIC SAFETY AND WILDLIFE CONSERVATION

Coyotes and other wild animals are part of the local ecosystem. The goal of exclusion and good backyard habits is not to get rid of wildlife, but to reduce the risk of dangerous encounters that can harm people, pets or wildlife.

Using humane, preventive measures, staying informed and promptly reporting any exposures help keep both people and animals safe.

Eye on Small Business –Professor Detail Auto Care LLC, North Salem

“PR not only builds trust but is also costeffective and reaches a wide audience. In this analogy, PR forms the foundation, paid ads build the house and sales is the roof.”

As AI reshapes the workforce, 23-year North Salem resident Peter Rossi has chosen to leave a traditional white-collar marketing career to pursue a skilled trade he believes is nearly impossible to automate – professional auto detailing.

For Rossi, making the move – and with it launching Professor Detail Auto Care, his mobile car care and detailing business serving Westchester, Fairfield, Putnam and surrounding counties – reflected what has been coined by HR Dive, a human resources website, https://www.hrdive. com/as “AIxiety Pivot,” a growing movement of Gen–Z workers who are switching careers to hands-on trades in response to AI-related job uncertainty.

Premium), but quickly realized that most customers did not know much about detailing or the benefits of each package. They also tended to anchor to the lowest price package, so he switched to a prescription model instead. This involves asking customers a series of questions about their vehicle and then prescribing a custom detail, tailored to specific needs. Pricing is benchmarked against local competitors and then adjusted, “based on how dirty each car is.”

Asked about key setup costs and how many jobs a week he will need to break even, Rossi was obligingly forthright.

interior of my van, complete with a generator, water tank, water filter and air compressor, with a family friend helping hook up the plumbing. On a good month, I can break even with about four cars.”

Long-term, Rossi said he wants the business to scale to a point where it can run passively, allowing him to focus solely on growing the “Professor Detail” brand.

“The most important metric in detailing is the lifetime value of a client. Just because someone calls for a onetime detail doesn’t mean they won’t be interested in a ceramic coating or a maintenance plan in the future.”

the money I earned working at the PR agency because I still live at home.” It helped, too, that he had little student loan to pay off and that his father, who owns an accounting firm, will be helping him manage his cash flow and profits and loss account.

Rossi chose his skilled trade perspicaciously. As a college freshman, he had worked at a local detailing garage, while simultaneously running what he calls his own side-hustle, “Pete’s SacO-Suds,” so he already had valuable experience in the field, as well as feeling confident about the demand.

In a recent interview, he told the Westfair Business Journal how he had initially wanted to offer three distinct packages (Express, Standard,

He said that the van, which he is financing over five years to manage cash flow and build business credit, was his biggest purchase. He added that the payment is manageable and that he already had most of the equipment from college, “and it does the job just fine.”

He pays van and business insurance each month and most of the products used cost “a modest amount.”

Furthermore, he has been able to save a lot on branding and website design because he has done it himself.

“I designed my website on WIX and created my logo with Google Gemini. I also built out and redesigned the

Customer acquisition cost is an important consideration for Rossi, which is why he is focusing on strategic public relations early on, to build a strong customer base. “PR not only builds trust but is also cost-effective and reaches a wide audience.” Later, he plans to ramp up Meta and Google ads which he believes should help drive more traffic and improve sales conversion rates. “In this analogy, PR forms the foundation, paid ads build the house and sales is the roof,” he said.

Startup costs came from Rossi’s savings. “Detailing has a very low barrier to entry and low startup costs, and I was able to save virtually all of

Using the Square platform to keep track of customers’ contact information and invoicing and at this point focusing primarily on Westchester. County, Rossi said that once he has more clients, he will schedule jobs in a logical sequence that will save gas. He also plans to add another vehicle once his monthly turnover exceeds $10,000, he said, adding that while currently a one-man-band, he looks forward to adding additional staff, “by midsummer, if Professor Detail continues to grow at the current rate.”

And Rossi had a final word for the Journal, reiterating that while Professor Detail was conceived as a kind of AI-proof business, he naturally uses the digital tool to his advantage. With software called Suno, he has developed an AI-generated jingle for the business, inspired by classic 1970s TV jingles like Band-Aid and McDonald’s.

Eye on Small Business –Fruition Chocolate Works, Poughkeepsie

stores nationwide, including Adam’s, Bread Alone and Whole Foods in the Northeast.

That expansion hasn’t come at the expense of local identity. If anything, Graham views “Hudson Valley-made” as a built-in advantage.

“People love shopping local,” he said, emphasizing that Fruition remains tied to its Catskill Mountains / Hudson Valley identity.

After nearly 15 years growing Fruition Chocolate Works from its main factory and retail café in Shokan, New York, chocolatiers Bryan and Dahlia Graham saw an obvious next step – cross the Hudson River and bring the brand closer to a new set of customers in Westfair country.

In a recent interview with the Westfair Business Journal, Bryan Graham explained how expanding to the vibrant Eastdale Village location in Poughkeepsie seemed lika a natural progression as Fruition’s Hudson Valley business continued to build momentum.

In the first year, he and wife Dahlia are tracking a range of indicators for the new shop – particularly the basics of whether people are discovering Fruition and walking through the door.

“We’re certainly interested in foot traffic and brand awareness,” Graham said. But when it comes to judging early performance, he made clear that the most reliable scorecard

is financial: “Ultimately, we are looking most closely at revenue targets.”

To keep the evaluation grounded, Fruition – already the recipient of 75 national awards for its product, made from ethically sourced Latin American cacao – is benchmarking the Poughkeepsie shop against the established Shokan location.

“We are measuring it against revenue at the factory store in Shokan and, so far, we’re pleased with the trajectory.” But he added cautiously,

“Because the store only opened officially on Feb 1, 2026, we will see what the future brings.”

Retail growth is only part of Fruition’s broader footprint. On the wholesale side, Graham pointed to one channel as the most repeatable.

“Specialty grocers have been the most scalable in terms of our wholesale market,” he said, adding that Fruition’s reach now extends well beyond the Hudson Valley. That may be an understatement, as Fruition products can now be found in 600

Graham also described a company structure designed to protect that identity and the creative decisions behind the product. He and his wife own the business outright and value the control that comes with it. He said that while the company is exploring opportunities for the future, the team is happy to have built a strong foundation and “to maintain full control over the creative process and pace of growth.”

That preference for control also shaped how Fruition approached the costs of opening in Poughkeepsie. Rather than adding new borrowing for the second shop, the company financed it internally without taking on additional debt.

Earlier in Fruition’s growth, however, Graham did make use of local financing support to expand manufacturing capacity. The business received loans from the Ulster County Economic Development Alliance and the Catskill Watershed Foundation to help scale the factory. The trade-off, Graham said, was administrative lift. But he described the terms as “worth it,” citing low interest rates and adding that Fruition was very close to having both paid off in full.

On the people side, Graham acknowledged that staffing can be difficult in chocolate and retail –particularly keeping teams stable. “Turnover is a challenge, especially in our industry,” he said. Fruition’s response has been to invest in internal culture and development. “We do a lot of team building,” he added, as the company “incorporate(s) room for growth into our plans with respect to employees.”

Lastly, when asked what most singles out Fruition chocolate in a crowded premium chocolate market – and which marketing levers deliver the best returns – Graham put it down to the product itself.

“Just taste the chocolate, and you will see,” said Shokan’s – and now Poughkeepsie’s – rightfully proud chocolatier.

Yonkers studies landmarking library branch as 100th anniversary nears

Yonkers is considering whether to designate the Crestwood Library at 16 Thompson St., as a landmark. Construction was completed in 1926. An application has been filed with the city’s Landmarks Preservation Board, referred to the city’s Planning Board and if recommended would be considered by the City Council.

The Crestwood Library building is described as a strong example of early 20th-Century Tudor Revival architecture. It features steeply pitched gables, half-timbered detailing, and textured masonry walls that are said to be characteristic of the Tudor Revival style as it was often adapted for small civic buildings.

The building has a grey slate roof along with a prominent brick chimney rising from a stuccoed base. The central entry bay is framed in carved, beige-colored limestone, featuring an arched surround with ornamental relief panels and a carved inscription “Crestwood Library” set within the gable face. Stonework appears original and secondary facades are finished in smooth stucco, painted a warm cream tone to match the stone. The use of stucco, in combination with brick accents at window sills and surrounds, is typical of Tudor Revival buildings. The doors appear to be original or early replacements consistent with the historic character.

Disrupting the original appearance of the building are several window-mounted air conditioning units that have been installed.

According to Architect Emily Brewer, a member of the Landmarks Preservation Board, “Overall, the building is a well-preserved example of Tudor Revival civic architecture. Alterations primarily reflect modern mechanical, accessibility, and operational updates rather than major sty-

listic changes. Despite these modifications, the building retains strong architectural integrity, with its massing, materials, and decorative program clearly expressing its Tudor Revival origins.”

According to a history of the Crestwood Library, after World War I Mrs. Horace Healey convened 50 women to organize the Crestwood Women’s Club with one of its purposes being the establishment of a library. The Women’s Club formed a six-member Library Committee to pursue the chartering of a “free library” that would be open to the entire community. That led to formation of a Library Association that tried to secure a state charter for its library.

The State Education Department encouraged the Library Association to seek services solely through the City of Yonkers. On July 8, 1921, the Library Association opened a library in a room at Public School 15 with a collection of 800 books, operating three hours a day, two days a week. By September, the collection had grown to 1,100 books. The State Board of Regents on Sept. 9, 1921, granted a provisional charter to the Crestwood Free Library, later followed by the issuance of a Certificate of Registration allowing it to continue operations. In Jan. 1922, a Building Committee was established to construct a permanent home for the Free Library.

On May 22, 1924, the Library Association acquired a site at Thompson Street and Chittenden Avenue at a cost of $1,200. On Dec. 10, 1924, the Library Association deeded the property to the city with the proviso that title would revert to the Association if the city failed to construct and operate a library within one year. That time period was extended for an additional year. On Dec. 12, 1925, the city awarded the construction contract and

“The building is a wellpreserved example of Tudor Revival civic architecture that retains strong architectural integrity.”

appropriated $20,000 toward construction. Groundbreaking occurred on Dec. 12, 1925 and the library was completed on Oct. 16, 1926.

Plans for building new library were drafted free of charge by Yonkers architect Otto J. (O.J.) Gette. He was the architect who designed other significant buildings and projects in the city that included the buildings and swimming pool for Tibbetts Brook Park, and the landscaping of Mulford Gardens.

Over the years, increased book circulation coupled with programming demands necessitated the conversion of the basement into a children’s room

in Jan. 1961. Six years later the main and basement levels were expanded to provide office space and additional room for the juvenile department. The 1980s saw repeated efforts to close or curtail operations at branch libraries in Yonkers and in 1981, 1983, 1986, and 1988, the city proposed closing the Crestwood branch but it remained open. In 1991, a 60% cut in service relegated the Crestwood Library to eight hours of operation two days a week. On Sept. 28, 1996, for the first time in 20 years, fulltime service, six days a week, was restored and today the Crestwood Library is open seven days a week.

Lamont submits SEBAC agreement to General Assembly

HARTFORD – Gov. Ned Lamont on Monday, April 13 announced that, following union ratification of agreements reached between his administration and the State Employees Bargaining Agent Coalition (SEBAC), the contracts have been transmitted to the Connecticut General Assembly for its consideration.

“State residents and businesses depend on our state employees, who keep us safe, maintain our roads, educate students, protect our environment, and deliver assistance to our most vulnerable residents,” Gov. Lamont said. “This agreement recognizes their dedication, supports retention and recruitment, and delivers a fair deal for taxpayers. I urge the General Assembly to act quickly to approve this agreement and deliver these reasonable wage increases to our state employees.”

The wage contracts were tentatively agreed upon over the past few weeks and ratified by the respective unions. Pursuant to state statutes, the contracts must now be considered by the state legislature.

The agreements include 2.5% general wage increases retroactive to July 1, 2025, and continuing prospectively on July 1, 2026, and July 1, 2027. In the fourth year, the parties will reconvene to negotiate wages.

The SEBAC 2026 agreement between the state and the SEBAC, which was ratified on April 10, includes all the individual unit agreements made by the separate state employee unions. As required by law, these agreements have been reviewed and approved by the governor's designee for collective bargaining, and the State Office of Policy and Management.

The governor’s office released the following statement relating to the agreements: “In accordance with Section 5-278(b) of the Connecticut General Statutes, the Office of Labor Relations hereby files with the Clerks of the House of Representatives and the Senate the SEBAC 2026 Agreement, including all addenda, and including for Attachment C, the cost statements of implementing all the companion unit agreements.”

The Granite program in Georgetown receives bluegrass grant

GEORGETOWN – The Granite is the region’s newest church-turned nonprofit community arts and music venue that connects generations through live performance, dance, visual arts, wellness activities, and educational opportunities. It was recently named one of 11 bluegrass programs across eight states and Canada to receive grant funding from the IBMA Foundation to support bluegrass education and community programming initiatives.

“It’s a recognition that the program has gained enough momentum and attention to earn support at the national level,” said Austin Scelzo, program director for bluegrass and Old Time Music at The Granite and founder of the Connecticut Bluegrass Association.

“As a lifelong resident of Connecticut, I recognize that this music is not as common or as visible than in the states where it originated – Kentucky, Tennessee, West Virginia.

“So, I feel reinvigorated and inspired to build up the community and continue to educate folks in my home state about this incredible American art form.”

Bluegrass at The Granite, which is located at 5 N. Main St. at the former Granite Church, presents monthly bluegrass nights alongside youth and adult music education programming.

A newly developed 2026 series will feature coached and uncoached jam sessions, educational workshops, and performances by professional bands.

The IBMA Foundation awarded a total of $20,000 in 2026 project grants. The nonprofit organization supports programs that foster the growth of bluegrass music by investing in arts and culture initiatives, education, literary work, and historic preservation. According to its website, its mission is to “build a brighter future for bluegrass music.”

The Granite received a $2,000 grant from the foundation. The IBMA Foundation was created by the International Bluegrass Music Association in 2007 with a bequest from the Richard Barnhart estate. Barnhart was a musician from northern Virginia who loved bluegrass and wanted to support educational programs for children.

“It’s important to our bluegrass

program and a great vote of confidence in The Granite and the program Austin is building,” said Richard Wenning, executive director of The Granite. “The biggest challenge is raising enough money to keep the lights on. We’re handling this by building The Granite as a true community space with superb programming to build local and regional commitment for sustaining its financial future.”

This is the first time The Granite has received a grant from the IBMA Foundation.

“It’s the largest organization that supports this music. More than just the fiscal support, winning this grant also means recognition at the annual World of Bluegrass Conference, which will be held in Chattanooga Tennessee this year,” Scelzo said. “The conference brings together all the biggest movers and shakers in the bluegrass community.”

Previously, the IBMA foundation has supported public education through “Bluegrass in the Schools” mini grants that have allowed Scelzo to bring educational programming to Ridgefield and South Windsor public schools, and soon to Danbury schools.

“This consistent public work has put Connecticut on the map as a state where the IBMA Foundation’s support is put to good use,” Scelzo added.

According to Trisha Tubbs, IBMA Foundation board chair and president, “We are grateful to donors who continue to support the Foundation. Project grants are the flagship program of the IBMA Foundation, dating back to 2011. We’re especially pleased to help fund important work across the U.S. and beyond with these annual grants that make an enormous difference in lives and communities.”

Nancy Cardwell, IBMA Foundation executive director, noted the foundation is pleased to help support bluegrass programming at The Granite in Redding.

“We’re aware of the rich tradition of bluegrass music in Connecticut from Phil Rosenthal to Austin Scelzo, and we’re proud to be a part of sharing bluegrass with the next generation of new listeners and musicians on a weekly basis in Redding,” Cardwell said. “The project grant review committee was especially impressed with the edu-

cation-related aspects of the program at The Granite including workshops, coached jam sessions, mentorships, peer-to-peer learning, and of course the Wernick Method Jam class.”

According to Scelzo, the grant funds will support the production of live concerts and dances in addition to educational and community programming including banjo, fiddle, guitar, dobro, mandolin, bass, and harmony singing instruction. Scelzo has been working with Wenning to create sus-

tainable systems to support additional programming.

“In addition to grants, donations, and fundraisers, we’re building live event ticketing structures that support artists, sustain operations at the Granite, and remain affordable to local families,” explained Scelzo. As Wenning noted, as a public charity, The Granite also relies on memberships and sponsorships to carry out its mission of preserving the national landmark church for future generations.

The town of Redding and neighboring communities have benefitted from the dedicated music and arts space.

“The opportunity to dance, sing, play, clap, or listen intently at The Granite brings new life to the town. We want our venue to become what people feel is their ‘Third Space,’ a term more common these days, especially as more people find themselves working from home,” Scelzo said. “I dream that The Granite becomes the premier center for folk and community arts and culture in Connecticut, much like the School of Jalopy in Brooklyn, Caffe Lena in Saratoga Springs, Club Passim in Boston, and 317 Main in Yarmouth, Maine.”

Much of this vision will be made real with the first coming together of our programming at the Planet Granite Festival this coming Sept. 1920. Scelzo and Wenning are bringing together folk, country, bluegrass, and old-time music programs.

“We’ll have two step dancing, swing, line dancing, flatfooting, harmony singing instruction, a kids showcase, jamming classes, live music outdoors, food vendors and more. We’re excited to be inviting more folks into this wonderful space,” Scelzo said.
