WPCNR MAIN STREET JOURNAL. By John F. Bailey. November 7, 2005: Bruce Berg Senior Vice President of Cappelli Enterprises today confirmed to WPCNR News that the Louis Cappelli 221 Main Street Hotel & Condominium project under construction on Main Street will be incorporating "a 5-Star Restaurant" on the 40th Floor of the first tower of the project. Berg told WPCNR that his organization is negotiating now with several possible operators of the planned establishment. Berg said it would have wrap-around views of Westchester County.

Mr. Berg said the plans have not been submitted to the Common Council as yet, but have been in development for weeks, since the Common Council had made it known (Councilmen Benjamin Boykin, particularly, and Robert Greer), they hoped a rooftop showcase dining establishment could be incorporated into the project.

Berg told WPCNR that the hotel being considered is definitely a 4-Star hotel, and he expected to name it within 4 weeks.

The news of the hotel came to WPCNR's attention via a last minute Mayor Joseph Delfino campaign brochure, announcing a 4-star hotel and rooftop restaurant. A call to the Mayor's office for details has been placed.

As originally approved, the 221 Main Hotel-Condoplex did not include a rooftop restaurant.
