HOLDS GROUNDBREAKING AT NEW ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MELVILLE, NY (June 10, 2006)—The Nature Conservancy's Earth & Ocean Gala, Under the Sea 2006, honors Ted Weiss of T. Weiss Realty. T. Weiss Realty is honored to support the Nature Conservancy's work - their statement is available for view here. ### HIS BUSINESS BEGAN ON GROUND FLOOR
MELVILLE, NY (July 27, 2005)—It was the end of a long workday at a construction site in Massapequa. Two heavy rods of steel had been placed on top of masonry walls. Contractors assured Ted Weiss, who was building the corporate headquarters for his flooring business, that the weight of the steel would be enough to keep them in place, Weiss said. Then they called it a day. "The following morning when I came to the job site, I found that the steel, these two 40-foot steel girders, had actually blown off of the building," Weiss said, adding that they were bent like pretzels. "I immediately had an anxiety attack." That was 24 years ago and one of Weiss' early building experiences. Weiss, of Melville-based T. Weiss Realty, has since left the flooring business and concentrated on commercial real estate. With his fourth corporate office scheduled to break ground next month, Weiss has established himself as one of the area's well-known developers of office space. The new building, at 324 S. Service Rd. in Melville, will be a wireless Internet-ready, four-story, 109,500-square-foot office space with a glass atrium, fitness center, conference room and restaurant. It will also feature a sun shield to cut back on energy consumption, as well as four "meditation gardens" with carp ponds - a popular feature in an adjacent Weiss building at 330 S. Service Rd. Weiss expects the new building, which recently got zoning approval from Huntington Town and goes before the planning board, to be completed in less than a year. The entire project is to cost $25 million, Weiss said, $6.9 million of it for acquiring the property. Kathy Giamo, a former Reckson Associates executive who launched her own consulting business, said Weiss has made a name by doing "top-of-the-line" conversions of old buildings into "Class-B-plus" office space at a time when others were serving up Class-A buildings with top rent. Weiss, 57, who considers his buildings to be Class-A space, said his rents typically run $2 to $4 less per square foot than his competitors' rents. "I think he's always played the market well. He hasn't come on-line without putting a lot of feelers out there," Giamo said. "His timing was good." Weiss has an eclectic background. Raised in a housing project in the East New York section of Brooklyn, he was on the swimming team at Southern Connecticut State College, where he received a degree in education. He taught physical education in Patchogue and Copiague; to supplement his $6,900 salary, he took a job as a waiter but switched to carpet cleaning after talking to a man working on the floors in his parents' Seaford home, where he was living at the time. The carpet business grew, and soon Weiss was putting in floors of all types in homes and offices. He moved the company from his apartment to a modest building he purchased in Massapequa. He renovated it, but soon outgrew the space; so he leased it and moved into another building, and did the same until he had five buildings and two showrooms. The flooring company took a beating with the crash of the stock and real estate market in the late 1980's, and Weiss got out of the business to focus on real estate. "Our real estate holdings had reached a point...where the greatest bang for our buck and my time was going to come from it," he said. In 1996, Weiss bought a commercial building on Broadhollow Road in Melville and renovated it into office space. He followed a year later with 2150 Joshua's Path in Hauppauge and launched Melville Corporate Center I in 2001 and Melville Corporate Center II in 2003. He hopes to expand his portfolio, around 600,000 square feet, to well over a million in five years. "I found my niche," he said. "You can't be everything to everybody. I know we do a good job at what we do." ### T. WEISS REALTY PLANS NEW CLASS A OFFICE BUILDING IN MELVILLE
MELVILLE, NY (March 1, 2005)—T. Weiss Realty Corp. is developing Long Island’s newest high-tech office building in the heart of the Melville business district, Ted Weiss, president of the Melville-based development firm, said today. T. Weiss Realty plans to construct the new office building on the site of the current Superior Packing Inc. plant at 324 S. Service Rd., Melville. The existing building, about 60,000 square feet, will be stripped to its steel and doubled in size to 120,000 square feet. The building, which sits on about 6 acres, will be two stories tall and will feature a three-story glass atrium. It will be wired with all the latest technology and will be environmentally friendly. The new Class A granite and glass office building, which fronts on the Long Island Expressway in the bustling Route 110 Corridor is to be called the Melville Corporate Center III. Signage rights will be available to a tenant that leases at least half of the development. The project is the latest in a string of redevelopment projects undertaken by T. Weiss Realty. “We’ve had a good amount of success,” said Weiss. Similar successful TWR projects in Melville include the 532 Broadhollow Corporate Center, Melville Corporate Center I at 105 Maxess Rd., and Melville Corporate Center II at 330 S. Service Rd. “Melville is the downtown of Long Island,” Weiss said. “It’s where the largest corporations have gravitated to.” The Melville Corporate Center II recently reached 100 percent occupancy – less than 20 months after its opening. Tenants in the planned building will be able to control temperatures in their own spaces through a state-of-the-art HVAC system and air in the building is to be filtered, Weiss said. The building will be pre-wired for Internet access and will have a computerized proximity access system, an on-premise café, health club and a conference center with a full-range of business services. Melville Corporate Center III is scheduled to be ready for occupancy by April, 2006. T. Weiss Realty Corp. is one of Long Island's oldest and largest developers. Founded in 1969, T.
