The new 260,000 s/f $92 million retail development located at Maple Avenue and Bloomingdale Road in White Plains was developed R Squared LLC. Pictured are: Whole Foods Market's Christina Minardi, North Atlantic Regional Vice President; David Lannon, president of the North Atlantic Region; and Chris Snell, store team leader; Mayor Delfino; owners and managers of The Source at White Plains Gregg and Mitchell Rechler of R Squared LLC; and Edward Gellert of EDGE Partners. A prime 11,000 square-foot block of space remains on the first level of the four level retail center, which is anchored by a new Fortunoff. The Source at White Plains reached 95 percent occupancy just months after its completion in September 2003, becoming the most successful new retail development in Westchester County in the past several years.
