• Danone North America, relocating its headquarters to 1 Maple Ave. and expanding the 4th floor space by an additional 15,000 s/f as well as an additional 23,000 s/f mezzanine level to accommodate their needs.

“We are honored to be associated with these major projects, each of which significantly contributes to the transformative impact on Westchester and the region, particularly the I-287 corridor,’’ said partner Seth Mandelbaum.
