T. WEISS REALTY CORP. COMPLETES 5-YEAR GREEN INITIATIVE

MELVILLE, NY (Nov. 11, 2008) -- T. Weiss Realty Corp., one of Long Island’s leading commercial landlords, has completed a five-year green initiative aimed at reducing its carbon footprint.

The Melville-based developer/owner/manager of more than 600,000 square feet of Class-A office space has, among other things, converted all the fuel-oil powered boilers in its buildings to clean-burning, North American natural gas.

Natural gas burns more cleanly than other fossil fuels. It has fewer emissions of sulfur, carbon, and nitrogen than coal or oil, and when it is burned, it leaves almost no ash particles. And, significantly, most of the natural gas used in the United States is produced in North America. Converting to natural gas heat reduces carbon dioxide by up to 40 percent and sulfur dioxide by 99.9 percent, according to National Grid.

“These steps help to reduce our carbon footprint and have the added benefit of helping to reduce our overhead as well,” said Ted Weiss, founder and president of T. Weiss Realty Corp.

T. Weiss has taken these additional steps toward becoming an environmentally aware landlord:

All T. Weiss buildings have been converted to energy-efficient, high-performance lighting and electric-based energy support system. The company’s buildings are fully lit by compact fluorescent lighting, which uses 75 percent less energy than incandescent lighting
More than 500,000 square feet of the T. Weiss portfolio has been converted to a state-of-the-art Internet-based energy management system, which provides total control of temperature, lighting and overall energy consumption
The company has gone almost completely paperless by implementing a system through which tenants may pay bills by way of the Automated Clearing House. Additionally, T. Weiss provides electronic billing of monthly invoices.
Set aside parking spaces for alternative fuel vehicles at each of its buildings,
The company’s Melville Corporate Center III at 324 S. Service Rd. features back-up electric power provided by a 750 KW generator. T. Weiss Realty has an agreement with the Long Island Power Authority to take the recently constructed building off the grid if there is a brown out, allowing the utility to provide electricity to other customers and hopefully helping to alleviate the brownout.

T. Weiss Realty has consistently been at the forefront of the Long Island commercial development scene, and these recent changes are a testimony to our established reputation as innovators in our field,” said Ted Weiss. “These days, doing good business also means doing right by the environment, and we hope to set a precedent among commercial developers.”

J. DE SENA & ASSOCIATES, AN AMERIPRISE PRACTICE, LEASES SPACE AT T. WEISS REALTY'S MELVILLE CORPORATE CENTER III

MELVILLE, N.Y. (Oct. 23, 2008) -- T. Weiss Realty Corp. said J. De Sena & Associates, an Ameriprise Private Wealth Advisory Practice, has signed a long-term lease for 3,000 square feet at Melville Corporate Center III, a recently completed Class-A office building.

De Sena is expected to relocate in December to the new 133,000-square-foot building, which also is known as 324 S. Service Rd. Terms of the lease were not disclosed. The company currently is at 425 Broadhollow Rd., Melville.

“We welcome J. De Sena & Associates to Melville’s newest, most amenity rich office building,” said Ted Weiss, president of T. Weiss Realty. “Our prime location and the superior amenities offered by this building will produce significant benefits for J, De Sena & Associates and its employees and visitors.”

“J. De Sena and Associates, an Ameriprise Private Wealth Advisory Practice, is delighted to have found such a state of the art building in Melville,’ said Joseph De Sena, president of the firm. “I am certain that my team will be impressed with their new work environment, grill, health club, virtual golf, wireless atrium, etc. We are certain that our clients will be equally impressed with our new office and conference center.”

De Sena joins Janney Montgomery Scott as a tenant in the building, the newest Class-A office property in Melville. The building offers uninterruptible power, full-service conference facilities, a well-equipped fitness center, dining and conference facilities and the only virtual golf studio in an office building on Long Island.

De Sena was represented in the transaction by Ralph Benzakein, LEED AP, SIOR, a vice president with CresaPartners LLC in Melville, N.Y. T. Weiss Realty was represented in house by Craig A. Weiss, director of leasing at T. Weiss.
