Yesterday Long Island Builders Institute released the findings of a study on the home building industries contribution to Long Island’s economy. We support 194k jobs (14% of all jobs) and generate $41 billion in total sales (almost 10% of all sales). Yet, we are in danger of losing builders to other parts of the country where the barriers and cost of building are not as burdensome.

I recently wrote this op-ed for Long Island Business News discussing the impact the Fed rate cut will have on housing.

What a spectacular day at Spy Ring Golf Club for the annual YMCA Golf Classic, honoring our own President, Chris Capece. From pristine golf rounds on our top-tier public 9-hole course to thrilling pickleball matches at our dedicated courts, and ending the day with a poolside cocktail party at our stunning pool deck - this event was pure perfection! Thanks to our amazing sponsors and participants, this year’s event has become the most profitable Golf Classic in the 100+ year history of the YMCA Long Island. We couldn’t have done it without you! ? ?#YMCALIGolfClassic? #Heatherwood? ?#SpyRingGolfClub? ?#TeeOffForKids

Last but certainly not least for Associate Appreciation Month is John Tancredi, Jr. of Kings Building Material. John is not only VP of Architectural Sales at Kings, but also LIBI’s very own Associate Council Coordinator. Kings is a brick & stone supplier that serves architects, engineers, and developers in the tri-state area.

Kings offers hundreds upon hundreds of different varieties of brick for use in all types of developments, with an expertise in large-scale projects like multi-family development projects and large buildings. Point to any brick in his showroom, and John can tell you it's type, use, and its technology, showcasing his in-depth knowledge of building materials.

On September 11th, 2002, TRITEC employees and subcontractors proudly took the flag that flew at the construction site of 100 Motor Parkway and brought it to Yankee Stadium, where it was unfurled in the outfield during the National Anthem. It was a powerful moment of unity and remembrance for our nation. Years later, we discovered a photograph capturing this special moment and are reminded of the strength and resilience that brought us together. Today, as we honor the memory of September 11th, 2001, our thoughts remain with everyone affected. We will never forget. ????

Newsday Media Group brought attention to how the issue of housing has taken front and center stage in this upcoming Presidential election. Both parties recognize that our country is in desperate need of more affordable housing and have offered their views on how to tackle it.
