Developer pulls plans for Heritage Square rezoning in Durham
A Chicago developer proposing a new life sciences campus near downtown Durham has pulled its rezoning application from the City Council at the 11th hour. Why it matters: The plans from Chicago-based Sterling Bay envisioned a mixed-use life sciences campus on the site of the Heritage Square shopping center on the edge of the Hayti neighborhood and across the Durham Freeway from downtown. The shopping center currently sits vacant, but was once home to a grocery store, some smaller shops and restaurants. Driving the news: The developer's plans, which were set to be heard at Monday night's Durham City Council meeting, were facing pushback from residents of Hayti, a historically Black neighborhood that has faced rising costs in recent years. Many of those residents expressed concern at the City Council meeting that a project of that size will cause property valuations across the neighborhood to soar even more, the News & Observer reported. Before the council could vote, however, Sterling Bay withdrew its application, a move that surprised the council and the dozens of people in the audience. The council ultimately voted to approve the withdrawal 5-2. Zoom in: A Sterling Bay spokesperson told Axios the company is disappointed that the project will not proceed, and noted that it's worked for the past three years to speak with residents in the neighborhood about the project. The company said it proposed $2.3 million in contributions to the local community as part of its rezoning, including scholarship money for N.C. Central University and Durham Technical Community College, a contribution to the Hayti Promise Community Development Corporation, affordable retail space and several other measures. "While the initiative will not move forward, we remain proud of the collaborative efforts that shaped it," the spokesperson said in a statement. What's next: The withdrawal means that Sterling Bay could resubmit another rezoning in six months or potentially build without it. Sterling Bay only filed the rezoning after discovering issues with the bedrock that made building underground parking more expensive and required taller buildings. The company had bought the 10-acre property for $62 million in 2022, according to county records. Sterling Bay said it was "exploring new steps" but declined to comment further on what might become of the property. Between the lines: The pulling of the rezoning also comes at a time when financing for office and lab buildings is much harder to come by.

Milford Entities of NYC allegedly scammed out of $19M — thanks to single phishing email
A well-known city firm that owns and manages luxury properties was allegedly scammed out of nearly $19 million thanks to a single phishing email, The Post has learned. Milford Entities/Management Company — whose tony properties include Liberty View and Liberty Luxe in Battery Park City — was the victim of thieving cybercriminals in early July, sources and emails show. The 'spoofing'' email led to the gargantuan sum getting accidentally transferred to a TD Bank account posing as the Battery Park City Authority, according to sources with knowledge of the situation and the internal correspondence. Advertisement Milford Entities/Management Company — the owner of Liberty Luxe in Battery City Park — lost nearly $19 million in a phishing scam. Google Maps The Department of Homeland Security is now leading a multiagency task force investigating the whopping fraud, according to sources and emails obtained by The Post. 'Last month, Milford Management was the victim of a fraud involving the theft of funds through the creation of a fraudulent bank account in the name of the Battery Park City Authority,' the Manhattan-based company said in a statement. Advertisement 'The theft involved buildings directly owned by Milford Management-related entities, as well as others the company manages,' it said. 'As this fraud is the subject of an ongoing law enforcement investigation, we will have no further comment on the matter.' The BPCA — a state entity that maintains and develops the Hudson River-side Manhattan neighborhood — confirmed it did not receive the company's quarterly payment due in early July. The luxury real estate firm transferred money to an account posing as the Battery Park City Authority. Google Maps Advertisement The lifted funds involved ground-lease payments and taxes, or PILOT fees, that are collected from Battery Park City apartment owners and sent to the BPCA on a quarterly basis. PILOT fees — or 'Payment In Lieu Of Taxes' — are essentially property taxes paid by condo owners to their building, which then sends the funds to the BPCA to cover operations. Milford Entities owns three buildings in Battery Park City and is the management company of at least six others in the trendy downtown neighborhood — collecting PILOT fees and ground-lease payments from more than 2,000 units. Every morning, the NY POSTcast offers a deep dive into the headlines with the Post's signature mix of politics, business, pop culture, true crime and everything in between. Subscribe here! Advertisement The board of managers at one luxury Battery Park residential tower managed by the firm was informed July 18 that $3.5 million worth of its quarterly dues were lost in the scam, an email shows. The BPC Homeowners Coalition, a non-profit composed of elected members representing 18 condos and 5,000 homeowners in the neighborhood, also sent out an email obtained by The Post warning residents in buildings unaffected by the scam to review their cybersecurity policy. 'This appears to have been the first cyber-attack in BPC, but it will not likely be the last,' the letter said. Justine Cuccia, president of the BPC, wrote, 'This is time for open, verbal dialogue between the condominium Boards, as this could have happened to any one of our building management agents, and so, to any one of us.'' BPCA said in a statement to The Post, 'The Battery Park City Authority has been made aware of a cyber incident resulting in payment issues that affected several buildings in Battery Park City. 'BPCA was not involved in this incident and its operations are not impacted. 'BPCA will continue to work with residents of the affected buildings, the property management company, and law enforcement agencies as the investigation continues.' DHS did not respond to The Post's request for comment.
