Esteé Lauder’s Aramis Inks Deal at 105 Maxess Road Aramis Inc., a division of Estée Lauder Compa-nies Inc., the beauty products company, leased 18,240 square feet of office space at T.Weiss Realty Corp.’s Melville Corporate Center I. The new Estée Lauder/Aramis space at 105 Maxess Rd. was previously leased by the Gar-den City Group, a division of Crawford & Co. The space is less than one-half mile from Estée Lauder’s other corporate facilities in Melville, on Pinelawn Road, Corporate Center Drive and S. Service Road. The company’s executive offices are in midtown Manhattan at the GM Building.

Craig Weiss, managing director at T. Weiss, represented the landlord in-house in a direct deal with the tenant.

“We are pleased that Estée Lauder has chosen to lease space in our building,” said Ted Weiss, CEO of T. Weiss Realty Corp. “We are cer-

tain that that the company will benefit from the convenient location of our building in the heart of the Melville business district and that its employees will enjoy our building’s amenities, including the res-taurant and health club.”

The lease, completed against a backdrop of a challenging busi-ness environment, “was made possible by our location and our ability to compete finan-cially with other buildings,” said Ted Weiss, noting that his company, in 2010, leased more space than in any other year in its 42-year history.

The Melville Corporate Center, built in 2001 and about 95 percent occupied throughout the

past 10 years, offers a Class-A image at a sig-nificant value. From DixHillsPatch.com, March 12, 2011

Letter from the CEO The Argument For Long Island

As an advocate for Long Island and an optimist in general, I believe the benefits of living and working on Long Island far outweigh the problems that have been continually put for-ward by half-empty prognosticators. The reasons that precipitated the development of Long Island by our parents and grandparents still hold true today, but need to be re-identified and vocalized, so that we remember why we chose to live and work in this special place. 1. Long Island is geographically unique—we are just a stone’s throw from the world’s greatest city, yet still have access to beautiful beaches, parks and wildlife preserves. 2. This island is home to vast supply of highly educated workers and a population that has always been committed

to the education of it’s youth. 3. Cultural diversity flourishes here, bringing about an environment of global awareness nec-

essary in today’s environment. 4. Long Island’s local governments are able to truly represent their local constituency, giving

us a much more granular feeling in our communities. Long Islanders have a lot of say in how our government is run.

5. Long Island is a source of cutting edge technology, supported by some of the world’s best research institutions—Cold Spring Harbor Labs, Brookhaven National Labs, Stonybrook University, State University at Farmingdale, and many other of the country’s finest Univer-sities and Medical Centers.

The above is only a small representation of the best of what Long Island has to offer. We’ve seen an economic downturn before, and I’m certain that because of Long Island’s singular characteristics, we’ll be seeing a complete turnaround in a short time. Yours truly, Ted Weiss, CEO
