Situated on the site of the former White Plains mall, AVE Hamilton Green is a $380 million mall-to-housing conversion project that brings a mixed-use residential development to downtown White Plains. Recently celebrating the projects topping out, AVE Hamilton Green will bring elevated apartment living to the city, with a variety of floor plans ranging from studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom to bi-level loft and penthouse layouts, including fully furnished apartments with flexible lease options for stays of 30 days or longer, coupled with AVE’s award-winning service and community amenities. AVE Hamilton Green is slated for a phased completion in 2024 and 2025. It features two residential buildings: 25 Cottage, a 12-story, 170-unit building and 5 Cottage, a 26-story, 307-unit tower.

Located in downtown New Rochelle, One and Two Clinton Park are at the center of RXR’s master development plan for New Rochelle. Two Clinton Park, opened in June 2024, offers an elevated residential experience with its 390 designed apartments, ranging from studios to three-bedroom penthouses. The tower has 24,000 s/f of amenities and over 7,500 s/f of retail space. Located next to its sister tower, One Clinton Park, which opened in 2022 and features 352 units, RXR shows its commitment to luxury living without compromise. Together, the properties offer 50,000 s/f of amenity and outdoor space across the shared complex.

Louis Cappelli, founder and managing member of The Cappelli Organization and chairman and CEO of LRC Construction and Fuller Development Company, will present the Real Estate Award to Todd Rechler.

“It is truly an honor and a privilege to be presenting the prestigious March of Dimes Real Estate Award for 2024 to RXR and specifically to my partner and friend, Todd Rechler, a Founding Partner and the Chief Construction and Development Officer of RXR,” said Cappelli.  “I have had the privilege of knowing and working with RXR and specifically with Todd for more than 25 years. RXR’s accomplishments and contributions to the communities in which it develops and operates are far too numerous to mention but suffice it to say that the impact that RXR has had in each one of those communities is enormous and very impactful.  There is no company or individual more deserving of the 2024 March of Dimes Real Estate award than RXR and Todd Rechler.”

“It’s truly an honor to receive this year’s March of Dimes Real Estate Award,” said Rechler. “March of Dimes leads incredibly important work for some of the most at-risk members of our community through their research, fundraising, and advocacy. At RXR, our operational ethos is “Doing Good and Doing Well means Doing Better, and this recognition by the March of Dimes only reinforces our company’s mission to build strong, vibrant, and successful communities. I want to thank everyone at March of Dimes for their recognition and we are looking forward to continuing our work as stewards of the White Plains and Westchester communities.”
