The Engel Burman Group, developer of The Bristal at Armonk assisted living facility, donated $25,000 to replace the town of North Castle”™s landmark American eagle at the intersection of Routes 22 and 128.
Erected in 1976 for the nation”™s bicentennial, the 40-foot-long wooden eagle stood in disrepair until the Long Island-based developer stepped in to fund its replacement with an identical-looking raptor made of aluminum.
“One of the guiding principles of our company is to be an active and contributing member of the communities where we operate,” Jan Burman, president of The Engel Burman Group, said at a recent ceremony to mark the new eagle”™s landing at the gateway to the hamlet of Armonk. “When we learned about the need for restoring this historic landmark, we immediately decided this is something we should do.”
