Stop & Stor Celebrates 25 Years of Providing Self Storage Services to NYC This Month

Saturday, February 1st, 2014


New York, NY (PRWEB) December 18, 2013

More than two decades ago, two families in the real estate business sensed a need in our community. Twenty-five years later their business acumen and commitment to providing a necessary and affordable self -storage service has enabled them to grow a business with over 70 employees, 15 locations, and all anchored on Staten Island through its corporate offices located in Willowbrook.

Stop & Stor is pleased to announce that this month they are celebrating their 25th year anniversary.

As professionals in the real estate industry, the Henick and Simon families witnessed the growth of Staten Islands communities and interacted with the many families looking to build their home and their future here. This experience naturally translated into forming a family-owned partnership – Stop & Stor assisting our community and beyond with a service needed by a growing borough.

As the company grew the principals of Stop & Stor – Ken Henick and his son, Jeff, along with Morty Simon and his son, Neil, – had a vision of the type of service they wanted to provide to their customers leading them to open up self storage facilities that were drive through; affordable; clean; and equipped with uniformed and professional staff.

Stop & Stors first storage facility at 780 Gulf Avenue in the West Shore section of Staten Island is still operational (opened in November of 1988) and was the first outdoor storage facility in New York City. From day one, Jeff Henick was responsible for operations of this Staten Island storage location, and now 25 years later, is Chief Operating Officer responsible for close to 18,000 customers.

Jeff Henick has a philosophy: Offer a superior product, quality service, with professional and courteous employees. I enjoy giving our customers the very best in the self-storage industry. Plain and simple, We Care about our customers. Jeffs philosophy and leadership has contributed to Stop & Stors reputation as New Yorks Self Storage Leader.

Every day Stop & Stor delivers on a basic need extra space! From the basic move from one house to another, to the downsizing during the golden years, to fellow business owners who just need to store and secure their records, we provide an option an affordable, clean, and secure one, said Neil Simon.

Providing a quality self storage service is just one piece of the companys fabric at Stop & Stor. Being part of a community and setting an example of leadership giving is essential to Stop & Stors operating philosophy. Through the Stop & Stor Charitable Fund, the company has given back to every neighborhood where it does business. The fund supports a diverse range of organizations with a major focus on education, arts and culture, community development, humanitarian, government, animal protection, beautification of parks, and medical research.

The fund has given over 1.5 million dollars in donations since it began in 2002. Examples of the type of organizations the company has donated to are: Fund for Public Schools, all N.Y.C. Public Libraries, Wounded Warrior Project, Lincoln Center, Metropolitan Museum of Art, City Harvest, Doctors Without Borders, AmeriCares, Brooklyn Academy of Music, the Muscular Dystrophy Association, the Wildlife Conservation Society, A Very Special Place, and the Boy Scouts of America. The Stop & Stor Charitable Fund also responds swiftly to crises and natural disasters across Staten Island and across the world. The fund is currently in the process of identifying an organization to support that is helping the victims of the recent typhoon in the Philippines.

Some of the Staten Island charities supported by Stop & Stor are: Adopt A Highway, American Cancer Society (Staten Island Chapter), A Very Special Place, College of Staten Island Center for the Arts, Foundation For the Advancement of Autistic Persons, Meals On Wheels of Staten Island, National Lighthouse Museum, Snug Harbor Cultural Center and Botanic Garden, Staten Island Ballet, Staten Island Community Services, Staten Island Museum, Staten Island Project Homefront, and Staten Island Childrens Museum.

Incidentally, the Staten Island Division of the Boy Scouts honored Jeff Henick at an event this month for the support the organization has received from Stop & Stor.

Although Stop & Stors roots are in Staten Island, it has branched out and now has self storage facilities in all of New York Citys boroughs including self storage units in Brooklyn, Staten Island, Bronx, and Queens with the exception of Manhattan.

The Kolter Group Announces Second Luxury Condominium Development in Florida this Year

Wednesday, November 27th, 2013

North Palm Beach, Fla. (PRWEB) November 18, 2013

The Kolter Group announced today the opening of the Sales Gallery for Water Club North Palm Beach, a new waterfront community of twin 22-story luxury condominium towers and 20 waterfront villa residences.

Located at 1280 U.S. Highway 1, Water Club North Palm Beach will feature a total of 166 two- and three-bedroom residences, including 12 penthouses and 20 villas. The luxury condominiums, priced from the $ 700s, range in size from 1,728 to 2,602 square feet, with Penthouse Residences ranging from 2,499 to 3,330 square feet. Construction is slated to begin April 2014.

The design of the two architecturally distinctive towers allows for impressive through-views to incorporate the panoramic vistas of the Atlantic Ocean, Lake Worth Lagoon and the Intracoastal Waterway. Each of the condominium residences features expansive great rooms, spacious living areas, dens and two oversized terraces. Private access elevators take tower residents from the secured covered parking and storage areas to their residence.

Water Clubs seven-acre waterfront site offers a private, resort-like setting that includes a Residents Club with owners lounge, resort-style pool, spa, lap pool and fitness center as well as a yoga and Pilates studio, and steam and sauna rooms. Owners can gather around the fire pit and outdoor seating areas or kayak along the Intracoastal Waterway. Boating enthusiasts will enjoy dedicated boatslips, as well as the convenience of the adjacent full-service Old Port Cove Marina, with additional state-of-the-art floating docks, high-speed fuel pumps and full maintenance service.

Water Club North Palm Beach marks the second luxury condominium development start for Kolter this year. Recently, Kolter broke ground on Water Club Snell Isle in Tampa Bay, Fla. which has recorded more than $ 14 million in sales since August. Buoyed by the excellent reception of our product in St. Petersburg and our near sell-out success of 4001 North Ocean in Delray Beach, we feel this is the ideal time for a waterfront community like Water Club in North Palm Beach, said Kolter Urban President Bob Vail. The overall economy is steadily improving and real estate inventory continues to diminish while the pent-up demand for luxury condominiums in this area continues to grow.

We have already seen a lot of interest from potential buyers who feel that this is an exceptional value for a luxury lifestyle on the waterfront in North Palm Beach, added Kolter Vice President of Sales Ed Jahn. Water Club combines the best of both worlds; the luxury and privacy of this waterfront enclave and the close proximity to everything the Palm Beaches has to offer.

The on-site Sales Gallery for Water Club North Palm Beach is now open. Hours are Monday through Saturday 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. and Sunday noon until 5 p.m. Those interested in more information can register for updates at http://www.waterclubliving.com/north-palm/ or call 877-859-2333.
