It was a relatively cool day when White Plains Mayor Tom Roach joined a group from Berlin Productions to plant flowers at Renaissance Park adjacent to the intersection of Main Street and Mamaroneck Avenue. The firm”™s offices on Main Street overlook the park.

The company, a marketing and promotion agency, decided to make the beautification effort in commemoration of having received Westchester Green Business certification from the Business Council of Westchester”™s Green Business Partnership.

Rick Berlin, the company”™s president and CEO, said, “Volunteering to beautify the downtown area is one way of giving back.”

Mayor Roach chimed in, “They”™ve helped make an already beautiful location even more enjoyable for the people of White Plains.”
