The luxury packaging founder on a mission to change the world
When Zimmerman contacted Robert Lockyer four years ago to ask if his company would supply its packaging, he had no idea who was calling. 'I had to look them up,' he says of the fashion powerhouse founded by Australian sisters Nicky and Simone Zimmermann in 1991. How things change. Despite having to wear a moon boot after tearing a ligament in his ankle in the cobblestone laneways of Sydney's The Rocks, the genial founder and chief customer officer of the UK-based sustainable luxury packaging company Delta Global was a fixture at Australian Fashion Week last month. He even braved stairs at Carriageworks in the hammering rain to get to shows, greeting designers and insiders by name.

USMNT's Folarin Balogun to miss Gold Cup with injury; World Cup vet Walker Zimmerman added
Folarin Balogun is the latest projected United States men's national team starter to withdraw from Concacaf Gold Cup duty this summer, joining the likes of Christian Pulisic, Antonee Robinson and Yunus Musah. Monaco striker Balogun was unable to recover in time from the ankle ailment he suffered last month playing for the French Ligue 1 club and will be replaced on USMNT coach's 27-man training camp roster by Eintracht Frankfurt winger Paxten Aaronson. Two other players were also dropped from the squad on Sunday because of injury, U.S. Soccer announced. San Jose Earthquakes fullback DeJaun Jones has what the federation called a "lower body injury," while midfielder Sean Zawadzki of the Columbus Crew has a knee problem. The changes come two days after Crew keeper Patrick Schulte (oblique) was forced out of camp in favor of Chicago Fire backstop Chris Brady. Philadelphia Union defender Nathan Harriel and center back Walker Zimmerman, who started three of the Americans' four games at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, were summoned to replace Jones and Zawadzki. With 43 career caps, Zimmerman becomes the third-most experienced player in camp after Tim Ream and Matt Turner. Zimmerman, who plays for Nashville SC in MLS, helped the U.S. win its most recent Gold Cup title back in 2021. Aaronson is the younger brother of USMNT vet Brenden Aaronson. The 21-year-old had six goals and four assists in 28 games for Dutch Eredivisie side Utrecht last season while on loan from Frankfurt. He, Harriel and Zimmerman were teammates on the 2024 U.S. Olympic squad that reached the second round at last summer's Games in Paris. The U.S. plays the first of its two Gold Cup tuneups on Saturday against Türkiye in East Hartford, Connecticut, then travels west to face Switzerland three days later in Nashville, Tennnessee. Pochettino's team opens the tournament proper on June 15 against Trinidad and Tobago in San Jose, California, then closes out group play with matches against Haiti and guest nation Saudi Arabia.

Unhinged doomsdayer terrorizing NYC apartment building
An unhinged doomsdayer is allegedly making life hell for his Gramercy Park neighbors — blasting pornography out his window, ranting about Jews, and shrieking about the end of the world. William Zimmerman's behavior has been erratic for over a decade — but it's gotten so unbearable his landlord is asking a court to give him the boot, according to a lawsuit filed in Manhattan Supreme Court claims Zimmerman, 34, is accused of spitting and urinating in the hallways of his East 21st St. apartment building, threatening another tenant's dog, pilfering packages, and using racial and antisemitic slurs –along with 'threats of mass harm' against tenants, the suit claims. The apparently unemployed tenant has so far created $75,000 worth of damage in his 13 years in his rent stabilized pad, including allegedly creating a water leak in his second-floor bathroom that continues to damage apartments below, claims the May 16 lawsuit. In addition, he blared videos or audio on a speaker 'of what sounded like people being murdered with audio of women screaming for their life and gun shots' after shrieking, 'We will all be killed tomorrow,' according to the suit. Several tenants have even asked to break their leases because of Zimmerman, the landlord claimed in the suit. One former tenant said life in the building was miserable. 'We put up with a lot for a very, very long time,' the person, who moved out in 2021, told The Post. 'I felt I had no other choice but to move.' Tenants claim Zimmerman is making life in the building miserable. J.C. Rice Another tenant recalled how 15 to 16 NYPD officers evacuated the building several years ago after Zimmerman barricaded himself inside his apartment. 'I think they got his father on the phone to try to talk him into opening the door,' the ex-tenant said. 'They were yelling through the door for him to come out.' The NYPD reported fielding 46 911 calls 'for various reasons' from the building within the last three years. None resulted in criminal charges for William Zimmerman, who has never filed taxes, according to court records. The building's owner and landlord, Apartment Management Incorporated, has tried since 2012 to evict Zimmerman and his father, Frank, who first leased the pad in 1968, records show. In previous legal filings arguing his 'succession rights' to the apartment, William Zimmerman has blamed his erratic behavior on 'depression,' saying he was treated at Bellevue Hospital in 2011. The landlord settled a lawsuit with Zimmerman three years ago in which he agreed to behave, but he has failed to abide by any of those terms, according to the court papers. The suit seeks monetary damages as well as an injunction barring Zimmerman from remaining in the apartment. Neither Frank nor William Zimmerman could be reached for comment. No one came to the door when The Post knock on William's apartment Thursday.
