Louis R. Cappelli
CEO
LRC Construction
For Louis R. Cappelli, the recipient of our Lifetime Achiement Award this year, revitalization of the county he calls home is more than a business venture; it is a mis- sion. As CEO and chairman of LRC Construction and Fuller Development Company, Cappelli has spearheaded the revitalization of several local downtown districts, in- cluding that of New Rochelle, White Plains, and Stamford. Cappelli has also pio- neered the construction of White Plains’ City Center, Atlantic Station in Stamford, New Rochelle’s New Roc City and Trump Plaza, as well as the former Ritz-Carlton Westchester (now The Opus Westchester). In addition, the hardworking University of Notre Dame graduate is the founder of the Cappelli Organization, which has emerged as a leader in construction and real estate development in the Northeast. Cappelli has also striven to be a positive influence in his community by establishing the Louis R. Cappelli Foundation, which has provided millions of dollars in grants to organizations involved in education and social services. —PA

The past couple of years have been challenging for many industries, includ- ing real estate. Tim Jones, the CEO of Robert Martin Company, has been riding the storm by continuing to execute the real estate company’s investment and growth strategy while overseeing the management of its existing assets. For 65 years, the company has been acquir- ing, developing, and managing land and commercial properties throughout the Tristate area and in Florida. The firm’s current portfolio has more than six mil- lion square feet of properties and 200 acres of developable land.
Jones, along with company president Greg Berger, has successfully led RMC, which is now regarded as a pioneer in the development of executive office parks across Westchester and Fairfield coun- ties. The CEO earned his undergraduate degree at Yale University and received an MBA from Columbia University. In 2004, he returned to Robert Martin Company after having served as president of Mack- Cali Realty Corporation. Since that time, RMC has invested in transactions with a retail value in excess of $2 billion.
A resident of Rye, Jones currently serves as vice chair of economic de- velopment for the Business Council of Westchester and as first VP of the board of trustees at the Windward School in White Plains. —JJ
