The nonprofit Westchester Disabled On the Move (WDOM), which has been at 984 N. Broadway in Yonkers, has leased 4,304 square feet of space at Simone Development Companies’ building One Executive Boulevard in Yonkers.
One Executive Boulevard was renovated by Simone from a traditional office building to become a 133,768-square-foot, four-story state-of-the-art medical building.
WDOM empowers people with disabilities to live independently in the community by providing services such as housing assistance, transition services from nursing homes, and benefits counseling. It helps its clients find affordable and accessible housing, and assists with transitions from institutional care to community living. It offers counseling to help clients navigate and understand benefits systems and works to advance the civil rights of people with disabilities.
“We are delighted to welcome Westchester Disabled On the Move to their new home at One Executive Boulevard,” said Simone Development’s President Joe Simone.
Maria Samuels, executive director of WDOM, noted that the organization had been at its former location for 40 years.
“The convenient location and accessibility for our clients made this the perfect choice,” said Samuels. “This next chapter in our continued growth marks our commitment to providing leading services and advocacy for all of Westchester’s disability community. We are delighted to remain in Yonkers.”
In the leasing transaction, WDOM was represented by Craig Ruoff of Colliers. Simone Development Companies was represented by Matt Lisk, Tara Long, and Kevin McCarthy of Cushman & Wakefield, alongside Simone’s in-house leasing and legal teams.
Simone Development Companies is headquartered at the Hutchinson Metro Center, and has a real estate portfolio of more than seven million square feet throughout the Bronx, Manhattan, Queens, Long Island, Westchester County, Orange and Fairfield Counties and New Jersey.
