Windrows Sale
CareMatrix has sold two of its properties at the
Windrows
at Princeton Forrestal Village to a senior living developer and
operator
in White Plains, Schwartzberg Associates.
Chancellor Park at the Windrows broke ground four years ago and has
83 units for assisted living. Forrestal Skilled Nursing &
Rehabilitation
Center is a three-story, Y-shaped 180-bed skilled nursing facility.
Adjoining these two buildings is a medical office building, and also
on this $77 million campus is a condominium retirement community with
254 villas, town homes, and apartments.
Based in Needham, Massachusetts, CareMatrix Corporation was founded
in 1990 by two brothers, Michael Gosman (Skidmore, ’85) and Andrew
Gosman (Babson, ’88), as a wholly owned subsidiary of Mediplex
(800-969-3004).
Founded by their father, Abraham, Mediplex had gone public, was then
sold, and went public again. Abraham Gosman spun off the physician
care and outpatient part and took that public, leaving the residential
development and management business to his sons. In 1996 the company
was operating in North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Arizona,
and Georgia.
Schwartzberg Associates is also a privately-held and family-owned
company with a long history — more than 40 years — in senior
housing. It owns and operates independent living communities, assisted
living communities, and skilled nursing centers in New York and
Nevada.
"As a family-owned company, we have a special understanding of
the importance of individualized attention and the personal
touch,"
says Florence Schwartzberg, co-founder.
Windrows was the first continuing care retirement community in New
Jersey to sell the independent living condos to their over-50 owners
rather than make the condos part of a health insurance package. The
university sold the land to the Gosmans outright, as it did to the
Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Merrill Lynch, Siemens, and
Bristol-Myers
Squibb.
Princeton’s cachet was attractive to the Gosmans (U.S. 1 March 30,
1994). "Just tying in with this university is something special
for us," said Andrew Gosman. "The area is wonderful —
the name, the address . . . the alumni list."

08540. S. Anthony Trombino, president. 609-921-2002; fax,
609-921-7245.
Anthony Trombino has moved from rented space to an office with 1,600
square feet that he bought at Montgomery Knoll; he has the same phone
and fax.
He does publications — production and printing and graphic design
— for corporate clients, and he also produces directories and
technical magazines. "We produce anything that goes into print,
and our forte is periodical publications," says Trombino.
The son of a shoemaker in Manhattan and Brooklyn, Trombino majored
in graphics at New York University and has been in printing and
graphics
for 30 years, but he was also a rock drummer in the 1960s and ’70s,
working with such stars as Stevie Wonder, Bobby Darrin, and Smokey
Robinson.
As a matter of fact, he is producing records with a sister company,
Century Sound Studios, and has two CDs out from Jim Gafgen, a tenor.
"We’re mixing an operatic tenor voice with big band jazz,"
he says. He is producing the records and a show with Gafgen’s band.

in-house maintenance and porter services, file room administration,
and more.

business,
we do everything under the office services banner," says Mike

their core competencies.

Police Report
September
13, for filing a false police report with West Windsor Police and
theft by deception for fraudulently reporting the theft of $100,000
in merchandise. He is believed to be the son of Jane Carlson, of the
Scandinavian import firm, the Skandii Group, formerly a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Scan Global at Riverview Executive Park.
The police say that Christopher Carlson claimed that thousands of
items meant for Skandiisigns had been stolen from a warehouse at 743
Alexander Road. The merchandise included between 500 and 600 Swedish
wool blankets, 2,000 Bumpe plush toys, 250 iron candle holders, 14
rolls of fabric, 200 record albums, and 100 tote bags.
In his report to police, Carlson claimed that the goods were stolen
sometime between June 1 and August 14. An investigation revealed that
the report was generated for the purpose of filing an insurance claim.
Instead of paying his moving bill, say the West Windsor police,
Carlson
tried to recoup his costs by filing an insurance claim for theft.
All of the lost merchandise was recovered and Skandiisign no longer
occupies the Alexander Road space.
