NYC developer seeks to acquire Peekskill apartment complex

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

The New York City-based real estate developer Tredway, through the entity Peekskill Plaza Owner LLC, is seeking to acquire the Peekskill Plaza Apartments at 901-907 Main St., in downtown Peekskill. 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 currently is owned by Courtyard Housing LLC.

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 develop -

ing new housing. Tredway manages a national portfolio of more than 5,300 multifamily units, with an additional 1,500 units in active development.

Tredway is seeking financial assistance with its acquisition of the Peekskill complex from Peekskill’s Industrial Development Agency. The IDA is considering providing sales and use tax exemptions, mortgage recording tax exemption, and a PILOT (payment in lieu of taxes) agreement covering real estate taxes.

According to Tredway, the complex has been the site of drug activity and unauthorized entry. It says the issues are largely attributable to uncontrolled access points, gaps in security camera coverage, limited on-site secu-

rity presence, and the continued presence of exterior scaffolding, which has created areas that enable loitering. The company says 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 on-site security staffing to ensure consistent monitoring and rapid response.

Tredway is planning to upgrade the units with new stainless steel appliance packages. It says that as apartments become vacant it will replace cabinets, flooring and other items as needed.

It would hire a full-time, on-site property manager who would be present five days per week and would oversee daily operations and improve responsiveness to resident needs. It also would hire a resident service coordinator to help residents access food services, coordinate in-home health visits, arrange transportation, and help residents connect to eligible benefits and local support resources.

Tredway says that its total acquisition costs would be $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.

Tredway plans a $3.6 million one-time payment to Peekskill to help cover the costs of repairs to the municipal garage that is part of the complex.

Tredway says that rents for all apartments will be maintained to be affordable to households at or below 60% of the Area Median Income.

The company told the IDA, “Tredway is committed to being a contributing member of the Peekskill community not just as an owner, but as an active partner. We take pride in being good stewards of our properties, with a proven track record of strong operations and meaningful investment in the communities we serve. Tredway will ensure the property once again stands proudly across from City Hall with a vibrant, welcoming streetscape.”

Westport’s Nyala Farms Corporate Center on the block

By Gary Larkin / glarkin@westfairinc.com

WESTPORT – The 389,916-square-foot, five-building iconic Nyala Farms Corporate Center that sits on 53 acres of property on former farm land is on the market, according to Cushman & Wakefield.

The center, which has been home to Playtex, Terex, Smith Barney, Deloitte & Touche, Morgan Stanley and the Royal Bank of Canada, is now the headquarters of the hedge fund Bridgewater Associates. The campus was last sold in 2014 to Building and Land Technology for a record $130 million. The sale was made after Bridgewater’s failed attempt to move its headquarters to Stamford. The owner of record is 60 Nyala Farms Road LLC, which is listed as the second top property owner on Westport’s 2025 Grand List. Its assessed real estate value is $95.95 million.

Bridgewater Associates, which Cushman & Wakefield describe as the owner of the property, is willing to enter into a sale-leaseback arrangement, providing near-term occupancy and income while preserving long-term optionality for future ownership.

Bridgewater Associates still maintains its headquarters at One Nyala Farms.

Nyala Farms is located within a zoning district that allows general business and research labs along with certain residential uses consistent with an adjacent residential district. Additionally, the campus is subject to open space restrictions covering about 23 acres of the property.

According to a flyer issued by Cushman & Wakefield, Nyala Farms Corporate Center is the last kind of

development allowed in Westport due to a moratorium on commercial properties exceeding 10,000 square feet. The property traces its roots to the early 1900s as Nyala Farm, a working farm once known for its award-winning Guernsey dairy cattle. In the 1960s, Stauffer Chemical Co. acquired the property and built its new headquarters there in 1972. After Stauffer left in the 1980s, the property was repositioned as a multitenant corporate center.

Sacred Heart among ‘Pioneers’ of collegiate flag football

By Gary Larkin / glarkin@westfairinc.com

EAST RUTHERFORD, NEW JERSEY – After playing only two scrimmage games as a team last semester, the Sacred Heart University women’s flag football team will get to actually play games that count starting March 13. And a chance at winning The Betty trophy and an Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) title.

The Pioneers club team, which was only formed last semester, joined 14 other colleges and universities Friday at a Media Day for the New York Jets | ECAC College Flag Football League. The teams were given tours of the NFL team’s locker room, listened to a panel discussion on the growth of the sport from youth and high school beginnings led by Kay Adams former NFL Network Good Morning Football host and were given an opportunity to create content for their team social media feeds.

The inaugural season, which kicks off later this month, was driven financially by New York Jets owner Woody Johnson and the Betty Wold Foundation that donated $1 million. The foundation is named after Betty Wold Johnson, Woody Johnson’s late mother who was renowned for her philanthropic efforts and was a longtime contributor to arts, education and healthcare initiatives in New York and New Jersey.

The team will play 12 games as it tries to qualify for the championship game May 3 at the Jets’ practice facility in Florham Park, New Jersey. The winner will be proclaimed an ECAC champion and recipient of The Betty trophy until the next season. The trophy is named after Betty Wold. Starting next season, the title game will be played at MetLife.

Sacred Heart’s journey to a possible ECAC title starts at 7 p.m. on March 13 against Mercy University at its own Campus Field. For Coach Catherine DuBois, that game seems like a long time coming for her and her players.

“For a professional team to support a growing sport, it really shows how serious they are and how big this sport is actually going to become,” she said. DuBois, who was a coach at Maloney High School in Meriden prior to being hired at SHU, started out with a bare minimum of seven players in

September 2025. The roster has since grown to 27 players, and that was without having played an official game.

“These girls have shown up from Day One. They have worked hard every single day not knowing when their next game is,” Coach DuBois said. “Honestly, it started with Preview Day as a way to get the program to grow. But these ladies they are the ones that made it grow.”

While she was initially a softball coach and player, DuBois was drawn to flag football when Maloney High School started a Powder Puff program.

“It's been like four years coaching flag football at Maloney,” DuBois said. “It was very informal. We worked with some of the travel teams and played some pickup games on the weekend. Then, this opportunity (at SHU) came along and I said, ‘Yes, I want to be a part of it.’ It’s growing.”

SHU senior and New York Jets fan Dayna Mercogliano of Staten Island, New York, who is majoring in exercise science, says she sees the opportunity to play actual competitive games as a lifetime dream. She has been playing the sport for 15 years in the parks of New York City.

“I love playing flag football at SHU because it has become a community of girls who get together each week and play the sport they love,” she said. “We have players who have been playing since they were little, some who only played Powder Puff and some who never played at all, but everyone comes together and gives it their all.”

Her teammate Victoria Zurawski, a sophomore linebacker from Newtown, New Jersey, who roots for the New York Giants and studies psychology, described how the team grew exponentially last semester.

“A big part of what happened is that we had our original seven and it grew to 10, 11. Then we started to make our Instagram. We had some filming time and made our Reels. Once I posted our first Reel, it went crazy. Our club sports department reposted that and we had so many girls reaching out saying they wanted to join.

ECAC Commissioner and CEO Dan Coonan, who was one of four people to sit on the Media Day panel discussion, told his story about how in only seven months the New York Jets | ECAC Flag Football League was formed.

The Betty trophy, named after Jets owner Woody Johnson's late mother, goes to the winner of the ECAC women's flag football championship in May.

“When I heard the (2028 Los Angeles) Olympics were doing this and I started seeing the NFL was all in, I thought college is kind of late to the party with flag but with youth sports and high schools it is exploding,” Coonan told reporters. “I started looking around and thought this would be another thing for us to tackle. I started reaching out to the NFL organizations. Then, I got a call from the Jets in the process of that. Everyone took my calls on flag football. But no one had the urgency that the Jets had. That was in June.”

The interest for women’s flag football collegiately is only growing, according to Coonan. “We have four committed new schools for next year: Union, Caldwell, Fairleigh Dickinson and Dominican,” he said. “We have dozens more that want to be with us next year.”

In fact, if interest continues and the league grows to say 40 teams in the near future, Coonan believes the league could hold a March Madness-type tournament that could be played in a short timeframe.

The official flag football rules that ECAC will use calls for 7-on-7 competition with no contact, games starting on the 5-yard line, 4 downs to reach midfield, 4 downs to score on a 100-yard field, two 60-second timeouts

with two 20-minute halves. So, a full game is generally about 40-44 minutes in actual play time.

THE JETS INVOLVEMENT

The New York Jets have spearheaded girls and women involvement in the sport in 2011 when it began to support New York Police Athletic League and the New York City Public Schools flag football leagues. That has grown elementary and middle schools to high schools with the Jets and sponsors such as Franklin Sports company donating money and sports gear to the schools.

“The Jets were the first NFL club to establish high school flag football as an official varsity sport with the PSAL,” said Jesse Linder, New York Jets vice president, community relations. “There are more girls flag team in the PSAL than there are boys’ tackle.”

The Jets have supported 260 teams, including some in Ireland, and have invested $2.5 million to grow women’s flag football, Linder said.

It seems involvement in flag football will only grow for young women on the collegiate level, according to Coonan.

“The NCAA D-I, D-II and D-III all voted to make it (flag football) an emerging sport,” the ECAC commissioner said. “It has the NCAA stamp of approval.”

Starting from Strength: How Enduring Values Power ELM’s Next Chapter

“When you grow up around the business, you don’t see it as a brand. You see it as people you’ve known all your life.” ~ Bruce Moore, Jr.

Most family businesses are about more than profits and operations—they carry both the weight and the privilege of relationships. For Bruce Moore Jr., inheriting the unmatched work ethic of company founder Bruce Moore Sr., came with the responsibility to protect a reputation built on trust, handshakes, and deep community ties.

“My dad didn’t cut corners, and that’s why people trusted him—for decades,” said Bruce Moore, Jr., current CEO and President, whose decision to step into leadership in 2018 felt less like a transition and more like a continuation—one grounded in values and respect earned over time.

As ELM moves into its fiftieth year and beyond, growth remains anchored in what has always mattered most: the people it serves, the outdoor environments it cares for, and the role it plays as a long-term business partner. “When you build personal relationships over decades, pride in the quality and consistency of the work becomes non-negotiable—and that pride, and that sense of care, is what shows up in award winning results year after year.”

What Care Looks Like on the Ground

As a full-service commercial landscaping partner, care is built into how the work is done— through disciplined operations, highly trained teams, and systems designed to deliver consistent results.

One partner. One standard. Fewer handoffs.

Fewer surprises. For real estate clients in the commercial property space, that means outdoor environments that are safer, more reliable, and easier to manage. Issues are identified early. Seasonal transitions are anticipated. Work is completed without the need for constant oversight.

Strong Teams. Smart Systems. Built for What’s Next Advanced equipment. Next-generation strategies. Every investment is made with a single goal in mind: delivering measurable, long-term results from highly trained teams.

Managed locally, supported regionally, and certified nationally, ELM combines the responsiveness of a neighbor with the reliability of an award-winning organization. With expertise, reach, and disciplined execution, our team is ready in any season, in any weather—continuing a tradition of personal service that began in 1976.

Successul partnerships—like healthy landscapes—don’t happen by chance. They are planted with care. Nourished by trust. Sustained by shared vision.

Let’s grow what matters – together.

NRWIB moves job center to WestConn campus

By Pamela Brown

The Danbury American Job Center of the Northwest Regional Workforce Investment Board Inc. (NRWIB) plans to relocate to the midtown campus of Western Connecticut State University at 181 White St. in Danbury. This announcement comes on the heels of receiving a $10,000 grant from Webster Bank.

Patrick Donnelly, NRWIB chief strategy officer, called the move to WCSU’s White Hall necessary for strengthening the organization with the community.

“This strengthens our connection to students, educators, and the regional talent pipeline,” Donnelly said. “Locating the NRWIB on a university campus creates new opportunities for collaboration, internships, and employer engagement. It positions the NRWIB and Western Connecticut State University to work more closely in preparing students and residents for in-demand careers.”

As for the Webster Bank grant, he is

appreciative for the continued support from the bank.

“We are incredibly grateful to Webster Bank for this significant investment in our community and our programs,” he said. “They have been a trusted partner to the NRWIB and a strong supporter of workforce development in our region. We value their continued commitment to economic opportunity, employer engagement, and community investment.”

Donnelly added that while $10,000 may seem modest, it’s a pivotal investment for the nonprofit organization because the funds support the coordination and outreach that make employer partnerships and youth programs work.

“These funds help us stay responsive, visible, and effective across the region. Partnerships like this are essential to helping individuals achieve economic self-sufficiency," he said.

The NRWIB serves the Greater Danbury, Waterbury and Torrington areas. Its mission is to foster economic

vitality and prosperity in Northwest Connecticut by developing and maintaining a skilled workforce through strategic partnerships, tailored programs, and innovative initiatives. The NRWIB works to align the needs of job seekers and employers by equipping individuals with the skills needed for success in the region's evolving job market.

Mayor Roberto Alves lauded the grant as another step forward as NRWIB’s American Job Center expand its presence in Downtown Danbury.

“Bringing workforce resources closer to students strengthens the connection between education, training, and real job opportunities, while helping build a stronger workforce and economy for Danbury and the entire region,” he said.

Webster Bank, a leading regional bank, is committed to supporting NRWIB’s mission to connect regional employers with qualified job seekers and provide essential workforce development services. Donnelly appreciates the bank’s commitment to corporate philanthropy that is focused on creating opportunities and building economic vitality in the communities where its

employees live and work.

“The $10,000 donation reflects its belief in partnering with organizations doing valuable work for those who need it most,” he said.

The funding will support the Northwest Connecticut Regional Sector Partnerships in Manufacturing, Healthcare, and Architecture, Engineering, and Construction, while expanding youth outreach through the Connecticut Youth Employment Program and other critical programs, according to Donnelly.

“Webster Bank’s investment helps the NRWIB connect employers, educators, and young people to clear, in-demand career pathways,” he added.

NRWIB offers in-person and virtual services to help people obtain employment, explore new career opportunities, and build valuable workforce skills. Some of its comprehensive support services include career counseling, career/job related training tuition assistance, job search assistance, resume and interview preparation, and CTHires registration assistance and other online resources.

White Plains passes resolution critical of ICE; council looks at making ICE tactics illegal

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

“If we do nothing we are making a statement — that we accept what is happening to our immigrant brothers and sisters across the country.”

In a unanimous vote at its March 4 meeting, the White Plains Common Council approved a resolution that puts it on the record as supporting immigrants and denouncing the current tactics being used by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to conceal the identity of agents.

positively to our city, state and nation, strengthening our economy and our community.”

— Evelyn Alicea-Santiago, councilwoman, White Plains

When discussing the resolution, Councilman Jeremiah Frei-Pearson raised the possibility of going further and determining whether the city can draft, pass and enforce an ordinance that would making it illegal for ICE agents and other law enforcement operating in the city to wear masks and otherwise conceal their identity including by not displaying badges except when operating undercover.

According to census statistics, the City of White Plains in 2024 had a population of 62,561 of which 32.1% identify as Hispanic or Latino, with 30.7% being foreign born.

The resolution that was approved says, “White Plains recognizes that these immigrants from throughout the world work hard and contribute

While the resolution did not mention the Trump administration or Donald Trump by name, it accused the administration of pursuing immigration enforcement policies and actions based on fear and intimidation. The federal government is accused of engaging in violence against both non-citizens and citizens as well as using inhumane tactics such as family separation. The resolution cites the recent shootings of two U.S. citizens, Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis by federal agents.

The resolution blasts the administration for having federal agents cover their faces with masks so they cannot be readily identified, not wearing clear identification and not displaying badges as do members of the White Plains Police Department.

The resolution notes that White Plains police do not participate in immigration-related activities by federal agencies and White Plains police do not profile people based on race, eth-

nicity, skin color, or language spoken.

The resolution urges members of the New York State Legislature as well as the U.S. Congress to pass laws prohibiting federal law enforcement officials from concealing their identities in any way and ensuring that they openly identify themselves to protect immigrant communities.

Frei-Pearson noted that 37 people have died in ICE custody since Donald Trump returned to the White House.

“We condemn that,” Frei-Pearson said. “We condemn our federal government building giant concentration camp systems. We condemn the hateful rhetoric and the fearmongering and the scapegoating against our immigrant community. Now, I’m not opposed to all immigration enforcement. It makes good sense to have immigration agents protecting our borders. It does not make sense to have poorly trained people in masks conducting military operations and mass roundups inside our country.”

Frei-Pearson said that in functioning democracies law enforcement shows their faces except in rare circumstances. He spoke of White Plains police showing their faces and added that prior to 2025 ICE agents showed their faces. He noted that fascist gov-

ernments often have secret police that wear masks.

Councilwoman Evelyn Alicea-Santiago said, “If we do nothing we are making a statement. That statement is that we accept what is happening to our immigrant brothers and sisters across the country. Most immigrants who have been violently captured and detained do not meet the test of criminality. Criminality now includes people in our community who work very hard, are law-abiding members of our community, send their children to school and give back to the community in the form of labor and taxes paid and invigorate our economy.”

Mayor Justin Brasch said, “My grandparents were immigrants, no different than the immigrants in our city today. Hard-working people who work and contribute to our society and just want the freedoms and rights that we have as Americans. That’s all they want, to join our lovely, American, diverse family and unfortunately they are filled with fear and intimidation and that’s totally unacceptable.”

$97.4M Bear Mountain Bridge project to begin in spring

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

A $97.4 million project to replace the deck of the Bear Mountain Bridge over the Hudson River that carries U.S. Routes 6 and 202 is due to begin in the spring in accordance with contracts that were awarded by the New York State Bridge Authority Board of Commissioners.

A construction contract valued at a not-to-exceed cost of $93.8 million was awarded to El Sol Contracting/ ES II Enterprises, which is based in Maspeth in Queens. A separate construction inspection contract, valued at just under $3.6 million was awarded to engineering firm HDR, based in White Plains.

The work will involve replacing the bridge deck, widening sidewalks, upgrading the barriers that separate pedestrian walkways and vehicles, enhancing safety fences, upgrading

drainage systems and installing four overlooks from where people can view the river and local scenery.

Bear Mountain Bridge. According to New York state, the Bear Mountain Bridge last underwent a deck replacement in the 1970s. Concrete bridge decks typically last between 30 and 50 years, depending on usage and environmental conditions. The new deck will utilize lightweight concrete designed to accommodate heavier modern truck loads and is expected to serve the bridge for more than 50 years.

Construction will occur in three major phases, beginning with preliminary work on the south side of the bridge before starting major work for Phase 1 on the north side of the span. The Bridge Authority says that work will be sequenced to maintain typical

traffic patterns and minimize disruption to motorists. Special measures are to be taken that would minimize impacts on bird species that nest on or near the bridge, such as peregrine falcons. The project is expected to be completed by the end of 2028.

Joan McDonald, who chairs the Bridge Authority Board of Commissioners and also is Deputy County Executive for Westchester County said, “This milestone contract represents our continued commitment to maintaining and improving this beloved Hudson Valley icon and critical regional connector. The board looks forward to seeing this important project move forward.”

Westchester County Executive Ken Jenkins noted, “The Bear Mountain Bridge is an iconic structure that has long connected both halves of the Hudson Valley, and by investing in its future, we are investing in the safety, mobility and economic strength of the

entire region. This critical infrastructure project will ensure our residents, commuters and visitors can continue relying on this crossing as a main option for transportation.”

According to Gov. Kathy Hochul, “Over a century ago, the Bear Mountain Bridge played a groundbreaking role as a connecting link for the Hudson Valley and gateway into the Hudson Highlands. The bridge stands as a symbol of New York’s innovative and resilient infrastructure. Through this deck replacement project, we will strengthen and enhance this vital bridge for the continued benefit of New Yorkers for generations to come.”

The New York State Bridge Authority operates the Bear Mountain, Newburgh-Beacon, Mid-Hudson, Kingston-Rhinecliff and Rip Van Winkle bridges and performs maintenance work on the Walkway Over the Hudson pedestrian bridge.

Pace in Pleasantville receives $2.1M for healthcare simulation center

Pace University in Pleasantville is receiving $2,175,000 in funding arranged by New York State Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins of Yonkers. The money is to help cover the costs of capital improvements and technology upgrades at its Center of Excellence in Healthcare Simulation.

Simulation exercises provide hands-on training opportunities for students to practice providing care to simulated patients. in high-demand health programs, helping prepare more nurses and clinicians. Pace says that by expanding and modernizing its simulation facilities, it will be able to prepare even more practice-ready nurses, physician assistants, and allied health professionals to meet the growing demand

for personnel. Simulations are conducted in a variety of settings including pediatrics, maternity, medical-surgical, and critical care.

Pace has simulation labs on both its Westchester and New York City campuses, with a combined total of 15,000 square feet of laboratory learning space. It says that there are more than 20,000 hours of simulation conducted per year, offering students an opportunity to practice skills at basic and advanced levels across the curriculum.

“Pace is a regional and national leader in health education simulation, and this investment will enable it to increase its capacity and train more nurses,” Stewart-Cousins said. “The better we prepare them, the better our health care will be for all New Yorkers. These simulation suites allow students to

learn in spaces that are modeled after emergency departments, labor and delivery rooms and clinics. They are videoed to receive playback and debriefings by their professors.”

The facilities include simulation suites, standardized patient rooms and clinical labs. Pace describes simulation suites as being modeled to mimic various clinical settings such as an emergency room, hospital rooms, or labor and delivery rooms or outpatient clinics. Each room is equipped with realistic hospital equipment that the students would use in the clinical environment. Students can interview simulated patients, perform a

physical examination and provide an assessment and plan of action. Pace says that the expanded simulation training capabilities will enable it to graduate and place more nurses at hospitals throughout the Hudson Valley.

“We’re giving them business practice skills in everything from quality assurance to marketing — along with the softer, social skills that often challenge the neurodivergent.”

— Robin L. Davies-Small, executive director, Yes She Can

At a time when Mattel is modernizing — some would say Barbie-fying – part of its American Girl line of historical dolls, Yes She Can Inc. is providing neurodivergent individuals with job skills by training them to refurbish donated American Girl dolls that are sold, along with donated companion books, clothing and accessories, at the nonprofit's Girl Again store in the heart of downtown White Plains.

“We’re giving them business practice skills in everything from quality assurance to marketing,” said Robin L. Davies-Small, M.Ed., Yes She Can’s executive director, along with the softer, social skills that often challenge the neurodivergent. The term refers to those who function mentally and neurologically in a way that is atypical. It is often used to describe those on the autism spectrum.

On the day we visited – a late-winter morning that was both characteristically frigid but uncharacteristically brilliant – the store offered some welcome warmth, humming with activity as the trainees worked at a long table that is deliberately visible to customers. Soon it was time for a movement break – studies have shown workers are more productive if they periodically get up and move around, Davies-Small said – and then lunch, the trainees flowing seamlessly from one activity to another.

For the 20 individuals –despite the name Yes She Can, the nonprofit has male as well as female trainees –in the Work Skills Training program, refurbishing the dolls is a path to employment success.

The 16-week program, which runs on a tri-semester basis, is one of three Yes She Can programs. Peer Connect has three students ages 14 to 21 with the hope of expanding to 10, Davies-Small said. It’s designed to build self-awareness and self-confidence as participants consider what they want to do beyond high school. These two programs are fee-based.

The free Mentorship program pairs 10 participants with 10 business mentors, including a chef, a librarian and representatives from Regeneron and Toyota.

Besides program income – which accounts for 22% of Yes She Can’s $726,000 operating budget – the nonprofit receives grants from the local, state and federal governments as well as foundations and corporations (32%) store revenue (27%), individual donations (14%) and money from special events (5%). Last year, supporters donated 11,000 items to Girl Again – including dolls, clothing and accessories – with sales of about $100,000. The store sets its price points below that of what new dolls sell for. Customers can expect to pay from $50 to $115 for a doll. (They generally range in price

from $65 to more than $275). With clothes and accessories, fans can easily drop $1,000 on a visit to an American Girl Place, like the one in Manhattan, Davies-Small said, adding, “They’re not going to do that here.”

A PHENOMENON IS BORN

However, when Mattel “retires” a doll, as the company periodically does, it can have a beneficial effect on Girl Again’s offerings – occasionally big time. A rare Kirsten Larson doll, which tells the story of a Swedish girl growing up on a farm in 1854 Minne sota, sold for $2,500.

It helped that it was signed by Pleas ant T. Rowland, an educator, journal ist and textbook publisher who came up with the idea of teaching American history through a series of dolls and books representing fictional girls living in various periods. In 1986, she founded Pleasant Co. in Wisconsin to manufacture the first of the American Girl dolls – including Kirsten; Saman tha Parkington, an orphan growing up amid the Gilded Age’s wealth and reforms; and spirited Molly McIntyre, doing her part on the home front during World War II – using most of the $1.2 million in textbook royalties that she had saved. In the first two years, the company’s sales grew from $1.7 million to $7.6 million.

Over the years, American Girl introduced Historical Character dolls of various races and ethnicities. (Addy Walker, a fugitive slave who escapes to Philadelphia, became the first Black American Girl doll in 1993.) Pleasant Samantha

Co. also produced two other lines of dolls – Bitty Baby and the diverse, contemporary Truly Me. (Some of these are available at Girl Again.)

In 1998, Rowland sold her company to Mattel, makers of Barbie, for $700 million (about $1.4 billion in today’s money). Since then, Mattel has looked to update the brand, with Girl of the Year, featuring contemporary dolls facing today’s problems until they are retired at the end of the year; and custom-made Create Your Own dolls. For American Girl’s 40th anniversary, however, Mattel hit a nerve with its contemporary iterations of the first six historical dolls, which include Revolutionary War era Felicity Merriman and Josefina Montoya, who lives on a ranch in 1824 New Mexico, as well as Kirsten, Samantha, Molly and Addy, shrinking them from 18 inches to a more svelte 14 ½ inches.

“I’ve heard they’re making it more like Barbie,” Davies-Small said of the main criticism being leveled at Mattel (MAT), whose 2025 fourth-quarter earnings and 2026 guidance missed market expectations, causing significant stock price drops. Though the company had scored a marketing coup with the 2023 billion-dollar blockbuster “Barbie” film, grossing more than$125 million and seeing Barbie doll sales rise 16% in the third quarter of that year, the road has since been rockier. Q4 2025 net sales grew 7% to $1.76 billion, but net income declined to $106 million due to higher costs, weak U.S. demand and inventory

Other critics have noted that the addition of contemporary versions of some of the historical dolls suggests the continuing dissolution of historical education, with the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), often called "The Nation's Report Card,” noting that 40% of eighth graders scored "below basic" in history

BEING SEEN AND HEARD

Nonetheless, some fans have observed that the new dolls still look like girls — the characters are generally 8 to 14 years old — and may even offer an entrée to the potentially more collectible historical dolls, such as those on American Girl’s website and at Girl Again. And that’s fine with Davies-Small, who became executive director of Yes She Can in August 2022, a month after the nonprofit and Girl Again moved to its current location at 10 Church St., across from

“The October art show highlights the creativity of neurodivergent artists and gives them a platform to be seen and heard.”

Grace Church and a short walk to City Center. The new locale doubles the organization’s footprint to 1,650 square feet and increases its visibility from its old locale in the shadow of the financial district on the edge of the city.

Greater visibility for Yes She Can, Girl Again and the neurodivergent community is key for Davies-Small, who grew up a severe asthmatic on Long Island, yearning to help the disabled.

“My parents made accommodations, not excuses,” she said of their approach to her asthma.

A mentally ill aunt whose condition wasn’t taken seriously only fueled her desire to make the mentally and emotionally marginalized seen and heard. She earned a Bachelor of Science degree in special education and elementary education with a minor in psychology and a Master of Educational Administration degree

specializing in nonprofit administration at Boston University; worked at a number of Arcs, which advocate for those with intellectual and developmental disabilities; served as director of Westchester Jewish Community Services’ (WJCS) Shelanu program for young adults with autism; and worked as a consultant.

At Yes She Can, she took over from the retiring Marjorie Madfis, a former IBM-er who founded the organization in 2013 out of her frustrations at the lack of programming and professional options for daughter Izzie, who is autistic and an American Girl buff. (Today she works one day a week at Girl Again and has another job, Davies-Small said.)

Approximately 5.4 million-plus adults in the U.S. live on the autism spectrum. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), one in 31 (about 3.2%)

of 8 year olds are diagnosed with autism, with the prevalence rate among adults estimated at 1 in 45. And while there are genetic and possible environmental factors at play, the Mayo Clinic backs the preponderance of studies that says there is no link between vaccines and autism.

One reason for autism’s seeming prevalence may be a growing awareness. And with awareness comes greater acceptance, Davies-Small added. She is strengthening that acceptance, hence the training area of Girl Again being visible to customers, who are waited on by the trainees. (Yes She Can also has nine employees.)

There are also two annual community events. One is the April 30th fundraiser, the “Voices in Autism Leadership Awards,” which will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. at The Mansion on Broadway in White Plains. (April is World Autism Month.)

The second is the October art show for neurodivergent artists, held at the Westchester Children’s Museum at Playland in Rye.

“I want to build Yes She Can into a strong nonprofit,” Davies-Small said. “We’ve added birthday parties, craft projects and a collaboration with the Girl Scouts.”

All of which suggests that while some of the American Girl dolls may be shrinking, Yes She Can and Girl Again are only getting bigger.

Girl Again, 10 Church St. in White Plains, is open 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sundays; 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesdays; 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays. 914-358-1460.

Eye on Small Business –The Tiny Mess Club, Pleasantville

Industrial waste and large-scale mess can signify big bucks in the business world for those who remove and treat it. But two Westchester County friends, Valerie Geschwind and Jessica Piccinich, educators who first met almost 20 years ago in what they describe as a “sunny classroom,” are showing there’s money to be made in “small messes,” too. What’s more, they say a mess isn’t simply something to clean up; it’s also “something to celebrate.”

They founded The Tiny Mess Club in Pleasantville to fill a gap they had identified in local kids’ programming. It’s a play studio built around child-led, open-ended exploration, with sensory, messy and creative experiences designed to support development while letting children experiment and express themselves. Their education backgrounds –Piccinich’s leadership experience in school operations and Geschwind’s work in literacy and curriculum development – complemented each other perfectly and shaped both the product and the operations. On the business side, they split responsibilities, with Geschwind leading marketing and finances and Piccinich running operations, systems and logistics to keep daily programming consistent and scalable. They also sought mentorship and built business skills as they went, translating years of managing classrooms, staff and large initiatives into entrepreneurship.

Before signing a lease, the friends said they had validated demand through pop-ups at community centers across Westchester. Those sessions served as both an initial offering and market research, as they tracked what engaged children, “what kept families in the room and what brought them back.” Strong repeat attendance and word-of-mouth confirmed the concept and clarified their niche. As they told the Westfair Business Journal, there was no shortage of kids’ activity options in the region but fewer environments that were purpose-built for toddlers with a thoughtful balance of freedom, safety and purpose.

The Tiny Mess Club’s revenue streams include drop-in classes, memberships, birthday parties, camps,

By Jeremy Wayne / jwayne@westfairinc.com

pop-ups and private events, with membership as the core. But a lot of the structure is still evolving or being refined. For instance, after initially trying a traditional semester schedule, the pair told the Journal that they had shifted to a more flexible model to match customer reality.

Families can choose four or eight classes per month and attend on any day or at any time. Unused sessions can roll over, siblings can share classes and members receive access to quarterly events and additional perks. Parties, camps and private events extend the same “creative, child-centered” experience while diversifying income beyond classes.

Like so many small businesses, The Tiny Mess Cub was bootstrapped from the start, Geschwind and Piccinich said. By launching without a permanent space, early costs stayed focused on consumable play supplies, sanitation and setup materials.

Then, as pop-ups grew, they reinvested into a dedicated studio, keeping a close watch on spending. The two also figured out how to build their own website and, from the getgo, taught classes themselves, handled cleaning and laundry and even built furniture when needed.

Operationally, The Tiny Mess Club’s largest fixed costs, the owners confirmed, are now rent and staffing, while its most significant variable cost is materials. The studio refreshes its environment constantly with new sensory stuff, art supplies and open-ended “provocations.”

“Through every step of growth, our priority remains the same — providing intimate, highquality play experiences that nurture children’s imagination, confidence and unique voice.”

Food is sometimes incorporated as a play material. For every dollar spent on food items used in play, The Tiny Mess Club donates to Feeding Westchester in Elmsford, the largest hunger-relief organization in Westchester County, responsible for approximately 95% of all emergency food distributed throughout the region.

As for safety and risk management, these are built into the business through waivers, allergy policies, sanitation protocols and clear supervision expectations. Most sessions are “caregiver-and-me” and can run with one instructor, but birthday parties and drop-off programs require two or more staff. The founders provide consistent leadership, supported by part-time instructors and party hosts as needed (they are currently recruiting for qualified, high-caliber part-time assistants) and they maintain small class sizes to protect quality and safety.

— Founders, The Tiny Mess Club

Over the next 12 to 24 months, the pair said their focus is on “growth that feels intentional rather than rushed.” They plan to expand class offerings, particularly after-school programs for older children, launch summer camp sessions for toddlers and deepen their partnerships within the community.

“Looking (at) 2026, we hope to open a second location. Through every step of growth, our priority remains the same – providing intimate, high-quality play experiences that nurture children’s imagination, confidence and unique voice.”

An ambitious projection, which, if it comes off, could show that while making a mess, the smart operators might simultaneously “clean up.”

Restaurant proposed for site of former Verizon store, movie theater in Hartsdale

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

Brixmor SPE 6 LLC located in Manhattan, which owns the Dalewood Shopping Centers I, II and III in Hartsdale, is asking the Town of Greenburgh for approval to convert what had been a Verizon store and before that a movie theater into a 421-seat Korean restaurant. The restaurant would be operated by Gen Korean BBQ, which was founded in 2011. In November, the company reported it had 57 locations in 11 states and South Korea.

In the 1960s, General Cinema Corporation opened an 850-seat theater at 355 N. Central Ave. in the shopping center. The single-screen theater was turned into a twin in 1970, then divided into two more theaters in 1976. It closed in 1994 and the space became a Verizon store.

Marc Newman of Brixmore told the Greenburgh Planning Board that Verizon vacated the space in July of 2022, so it has been vacant for more than three years, “which is a long time in our industry. We’ve been working very hard to backfill the space and have had a few deals fall through.”

Newman said that Gen Korean BBQ has signed a lease for the space.

According to Mike Finan of Langan Engineering, a Special Use Permit and Shared Parking Waiver are being sought from the town to permit the change of use of the 10,725-square-foot space.

“The restaurant will provide for three different dining experiences,” he said. “These experiences include a Korean BBQ section, where customers will grill their own food at the table; a

Hot Pot section, where customers prepare their own soup-based meals; and a traditional Sushi restaurant.”

Finan said that Brixmore believes a restaurant serving lunch and dinner will be beneficial to the public interest by providing an alternative to existing food establishments. They also take the position that leasing vacant space at this time will serve the public interest by expanding the local economy and will contribute to the economic health of the community.

“The restaurant will not generate adverse impacts such as excessive noise, traffic congestion, or waste overflow that could affect adjacent districts,” Finan said. “All deliveries and waste management operations occur at the rear of the property in the current condition and will continue to do so to avoid disruptions with customers.”

Finan takes the position that the available parking at the shopping center is adequate for the new restaurant as well as existing businesses. He

COURTS

points out that there is Bee-Line bus service along Central Avenue and sidewalks make the site accessible for pedestrians.

“Changing the use from general allowable commercial use to restaurant, as contemplated here, is not expected to create additional traffic or pedestrian hazards as the building has both adequate available parking and easy access to the property entrance,” Finan said. “No additional exterior lighting, mechanical equipment, noise-producing features, or odor-emitting systems beyond what already exists on site will be introduced.”

Ex-employee sues

Monsey health clinic for retaliation

A former employee of a nonprofit Monsey health clinic claims she was fired for singling out possible misuses of federal funds.

Johanna Amar-Eichenwald accused Community Medical and Dental Care Inc. of retaliation, in a complaint filed on Feb. 26 in U.S. District Court, White Plains.

On her first day, the complaint states, "it became alarmingly clear to her that she was stepping into an institution operating well outside the bounds of medical, ethical, and legal standards."

The clinic did not reply to a message asking for responses to her allegations. According to an independent auditor's opinion, in 2024 the clinic complied with all requirements "that could have a direct or material effect

By Bill heltzel / bheltzel@westfairinc.com

on each of its major federal programs."

Community Medical, also known as Monsey Family Medical Center, says on its website that its mission "is to enhance the lives of the community we serve by delivering the highest quality comprehensive and preventive medical, dental and behavioral health services."

The clinic recorded $20.2 million in revenues in 2024, according to its nonprofit tax return, including nearly $1.3 million in federal grants.

Mendel Hoffman, the president and chief executive, and Chana Amsel, the chief financial officers, also are named as defendants in the lawsuit. Hoffman was paid nearly $1.2 million in wages and other compensation in 2024, and Amsel was paid more than $300,000.

Amar-Eichenwald, of Englewood,

New Jersey, joined the clinic as director of clinical services in July 2024.

She claims that federal grant funds were deposited into an account labeled "Special 2," transferred to two bank accounts, and withdrawn nearly weekly in increments of $5,000, $25,000, and $50,000.

The withdrawals, she alleges, were not accounted for in budget records, raising "serious suspicions that federal funds were being used on private expenses."

According to the independent auditor's report, in 2024 the clinic received $1,258,474 from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

When Amar-Eichenwald told Hoffman about her findings, he allegedly removed her access to financial records.

She says she shifted attention to clinical care issues and found that

“Rather than investigate or rectify the inequities, they retaliated and questioned her loyalty.”

the clinic had no medical director, as required for federal funding. Instead, a secretary with no medical training was listed as the compliance officer "to circumvent federal oversight."

She alleges that a patient broker was paid $8,000 to $15,000 a month in kickbacks to steer patients to the clinic. And she claims that male employees were paid tens of thousands of dollars more than women in identical roles.

"Rather than investigate or rectify the inequities," the complaint states, Hoffman and Amsel "retaliated and questioned her loyalty."

On Jan. 4, 2025, she was fired.

Amar-Eichenwald says she was fired in retaliation for disclosing activity that poses danger to public health and safety.

She is demanding payment for lost wages and benefits, and unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.

Ex-Nuvance Health CEO Murphy appointed Union Savings chair

By Gary Larkin / glarkin@westfairinc.com

DANBURY – Union Savings Bank has named Dr. John M. Murphy, former president and CEO of Nuvance Health, as chair of the Board of Trustees, effective Feb. 2.  Dr. Murphy succeeds Lucie Voves, who is retiring from the position of chair but will remain on the board.

Murphy has spent more than 20 years with the bank, beginning with his election as a corporator in 2003. He later became a trustee and has since played an active role in the bank’s governance through service on numerous board committees, including his role as chair of the trust, risk and the loan policy review committees, among others.

“Dr. Murphy is a natural choice for the chairman of the board position," said Chelen Reyes, president and CEO of Union Savings Bank. "He has a deep understanding of USB and our strategic vision for the future. Dr. Murphy consistently demonstrates a strong commitment to our institution and the communities we serve, and we look forward to his continued guidance and leadership.”

Before retiring in 2025, Dr. Murphy

had a distinguished career spanning more than four decades in healthcare leadership and clinical practice in neurology. Most recently he led Nuvance Health from 2010- 2025. He was instrumental in the merger between Western Connecticut Health Care Network (WCHCN) and Health Quest Systems, which formed Nuvance Health. Prior to that he was executive vice president of Danbury Health Systems, where he also served on the board.

In 2020, Dr. Murphy was named the inaugural Businessperson of the Year by Westfair Communications, in recognition of his advocacy on behalf of the healthcare industry and patient care on the local, state, and national level.

"I am honored to assume the role of chairman and eager to collaborate with the leadership team as well as our board members in steering the bank toward continued success,” said Dr. Murphy.

Dr. Murphy earned a Bachelor of Science degree in biology from Fordham University and is a graduate of medicine from Rutgers Medical School. He resides in Newtown.

“Dr. Murphy is a natural choice for the chairman of the board position.”
