The agreement is subject to approval by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New Jersey, which ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ hopes to obtain in the coming days. ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½B will retain its ownership interest in the British Colonial and Margaritaville Beach Resort hotels, which the company believes will benefit the entire Bahamian community well into the future.

The resolution follows ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½, ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½B and CSCECB’s motion to appeal the New York State Supreme Court’s prior decision and ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½â€™s filing for chapter 11, which had been pursued in parallel to protect the interests of the co-defendants’ stakeholders.

“We are pleased to have successfully resolved this matter and to move forward with clarity and certainty for our employees, customers and partners,â€� said Yan Wei, Chairman & CEO of ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½. “While we remain convinced by the strength of our legal arguments, bringing this matter to a close is in the best interests of our stakeholders and will allow us to focus fully on our strategy for delivering world-class construction projects and hospitality operations to our customers. We thank our team and partners for their continued support and look forward to many opportunities together. We also want to extend our appreciation to the people and businesses of The Bahamas for their continued friendship and trust as we look to deepen our relationships in the country.â€�

Takes Strategic Actions to Address Wrongful New York State Court Decision and Protect Interests of all Stakeholders"]]> Consistent with these objectives, ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ today commenced a chapter 11 case under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey. The court-supervised process provides, among other things, for an automatic stay of enforcement of any claim or pursuit of any litigation against ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½. The chapter 11 case does not include any of ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½â€™s subsidiaries, including Plaza Group Holdings LLC, ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ Civil, Inc, China Construction America of South Carolina, Inc., Strategic Capital (Beijing) Consulting Co., Ltd., its parent company CSCEC Holding Company, Inc, or any other affiliates, the business and operations of which will continue as normal.

The Company intends to ask the Bankruptcy Court to modify the automatic stay and authorize ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ to join its co-defendants, ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ Bahamas Ltd. (“ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½Bâ€�) and CSCEC Bahamas, Ltd. (“CSCECBâ€�), in pursuing an appeal of the New York State trial court decision. Non-debtor defendants ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½B and CSCECB are not subsidiaries, parents or shareholders of ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ and are not included in ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½â€™s chapter 11 case.

Yan Wei, Chairman & CEO of ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½, said: “Our actions today are intended to protect ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½â€™s right to appeal the New York state court’s fatally flawed decision and preserve the value of ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ for the benefit of all stakeholders while the appeal process plays out. The record is clear that BML Properties’ losses were entirely the result of its own gross mismanagement and irresponsible actions, and that the lower court’s decision suffers from multiple, insurmountable errors of law. Among its many failings, the lower court’s decision completely ignores the reality that ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ was not involved at all in the Baha Mar construction project. We look forward to presenting our arguments to the appellate court.â€�

The Company has filed “first day” motions to obtain the requisite court authority for ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ to continue operating its business in the ordinary course for the duration of the chapter 11 process. ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½â€™s parent company, CSCEC Holding Company, Inc. is providing the Company $40 million in debtor-in-possession (“DIPâ€�) financing. ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ expects the DIP financing will provide it with sufficient liquidity to continue operations in the ordinary course during the chapter 11 process. CSCEC Holding has also agreed to provide additional funding directly to ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½â€™s subsidiaries so that they have the funding they need to continue their operations in the ordinary course during the duration of the chapter 11 case.

The 3.65-acre parcel is now a surface parking lot. The final chapter of the planned community is designed by Handel Architects and is set to feature high-end for-sale units in a compound that tops out at eight stories. A split in the site creates a new pedestrian plaza between the proposed buildings.

The original master plan consisted of 2.8 million gross square feet of development and includes over 1,500 residential condominium units, 45,000 square feet of ground-level retail and 1,600 parking spaces. Amenities on the larger development sites include a spa, yoga studios, media center and kids’ rooms.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul joined Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) officials for a ceremonial first ride and press conference marking the opening of the first section of LIRR Expansion Project.
“The opening of the Third Track marks a huge milestone for commuters and visitors that is decades in the making,� Hochul said at the Monday press conference. “Thanks to this extraordinary project, LIRR trains will run more often, and passengers will have a smoother ride than ever.�

MTA Chairman and CEO Janno Lieber said this Third Track project is different from other mega projects in the past. It’s more than $100 million under budget and ahead of schedule, for which he gave thanks to MTA Construction & Development and the LIRR team as well as design-build team 3rd Track Constructors, a joint venture between John Picone, Dragados, ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ Civil and Halmar International.

MTA Construction & Development President Jamie Torres-Springer added, “Commissioning the first block of the LIRR Third Track is a major milestone as we deliver this transformative project on time and under budget for Long Islanders. This project is our model going forward as we deliver great benefits for our customers better, faster and cheaper.�

The three-mile section of the 9.8-mile expansion project is just the beginning, and there are two more blocks to be commissioned and cut over within the next two months. Once achieved, it will have the potential to boost train capacity by 50 percent for Long Islanders, according to MTA officials.


Governor Kathy Hochul, MTA Chair & CEO Janno Lieber, and SMART General Chairman Anthony Simon were joined by other officials on a ceremonial train ride from Jamaica to New Hyde Park to inaugurate the first completed section of LIRR Third Track between Floral Park and Merillon Avenue on Monday, Aug 15, 2022.

The ground floor features retail space, the residential lobby and porte-cochere. The basement of the existing building was re-used.

Plaza worked with Triton Construction on the demolition of the original building and construction of the core and shell for a 51-story, 730,000-square-foot tower with 490 residences. The building rises 620 feet above the street. The project required careful planning so as not to disrupt the service for the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) subway lines running beneath Fulton Street on the north side of the site. The building’s exterior is like a sculpture, with the elements migrating across its facade. More than 190 unique floor plans accommodate a diverse mix of residents. Built of precast concrete, the scalloped facade units were prefabricated and installed on-site.

The pre-existing building housed a mixture of parking, storage and ground-floor retail spaces. The new structure is primarily cast-in-place concrete with a structural steel-framed roof. The plan called for retaining the existing structure below grade, including the ground-floor slabs east and west of the tower. The superstructure tower section consists of reinforced cast-in-place concrete and contains flat plate floor slabs.
