The Hudson Gateway Association of REALTORS® is a not-for-profit trade association consisting of over 13,000 real estate professionals doing business in Manhattan, the Bronx, Westchester, Putnam, Rockland, and Orange counties. It is the second largest REALTOR® Association in New York, and one of the largest in the country.
The portfolio includes two significant New York properties: iPark 84, a 270-acre business park in East Fishkill, and Trilogy Lofts, a transit-oriented multifamily development in Yonkers.
The property's location provides convenient access to the Hutchinson River Parkway, I-95 and U.S. Route 1, as well as Bee-Line bus service.
According to Newburgh Planning Director Ali Church, the study is examining the city's existing metered parking as well as parking needs associated with residential development.
The transactions span Larchmont, Ossining, Mount Kisco, White Plains and Irvington and include tenants in the nonprofit, personal services, technology, wellness and recreation sectors.
Projects supported by the grants will include lighting and beautification improvements, wayfinding, public art, marketing initiatives and merchant organizing.
According to the OCIDA, the project is projected to generate more than $56 million in local economic impact and create 218 temporary construction jobs.
