From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Blue Hill Plaza Located in Pearl River, New York, approximately 20 miles north of New York City, Blue Hill Plaza, is an office complex consisting of a 21-story office tower and an eight-story office building on 90-acres of landscaped and wooded property.

The two buildings comprise nearly 1.2 million square feet of leasable space [1], about 40 percent of the office market in Rockland County[2], with approximately 1,800 people employed by tenants ranging from smaller startups to large offices of well-known corporations such as Verizon, Orange & Rockland Utilities, Active Media, Fujitsu, and Hunter Douglas.

History

[edit]

Originally planned as the first two buildings of a four building complex at the northwest end of Lake Tappan, Blue Hill Plaza was designed by notable modernist architectural firm Skidmore, Owings and Merrill [3]. Completed in 1972, it was one of the last projects built by the Uris Brothers of New York City ([4]. Blue Hill Plaza was acquired in 1996 by Glorious Sun Robert Martin LLC, partnership of Westchester County-based Robert Martin Company and Hong Kong- and Manhattan-based real estate company, Glorious Sun. It is leased and managed by Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI). [5]

Features

[edit]

Blue Hill Plaza’s main lobbies and concourse feature full-height mahogany wall panels, satin aluminum reveals, acoustical tile ceilings with architectural energy-efficient pendant lighting, zolatone-finished columns, and a touch screen directory. The concourse also features regular art exhibits displaying works from local and national artists.

Building amenities include a health club, childcare center, retail, café, approximately 3,000 parking spaces, and 24/7 building access with on-site security.[6]

Location

[edit]

Blue Hill Plaza is located in Pearl River, NY, Rockland County, approximately 20 miles North of the George Washington Bridge to Manhattan. It is directly across from the Hilton Pearl River and the Blue Hill Golf Course, off Veterans Memorial Drive between the Tappan Zee and George Washington bridges, with nearby access to I-80, I-87, I-95, I-287, and the Garden State and Palisades parkways. It borders Bergen County, NJ, a NYC suburb and home to numerous corporate headquarters.

Sustainability

[edit]

In 2008, Blue Hill Plaza received the Rockland Recycles Award, and the Rockland County Distinguished Service Award for its recycling strategies that reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills, while also reducing costs .[7][8] The recycling program has 100 percent tenant participation, and has reduced solid waste disposed by the complex by 40 percent since inception, with an estimated accumulated savings of $250,000. Blue Hill Plaza has diverted over 9,300 tons of cardboard, over 2,100 tons of mixed papers, and over 40 tons of bottles, cans and plastics. [9][10]
