Main Street Retail Master Leaseholder Hudson Related’s representative Arianna Sacks Rosenberg briefed and answered questions from the Roosevelt Island Operating Corp ( RIOC ) Board of Directors and members of the community during last night’s RIOC Real Estate Advisory Committee meeting (audio web cast of meeting will be here ).
