President's Letter

VOLUME 20, ISSUE 4

A few years ago, we were all ready to welcome Marcus Samuelsson to Central New York for our 2020 Taste of Fame celebration. That, of course, had to change due to the pandemic.

Publisher Mitch Gelman Editor Lauren Easton Photographers Eric Hayden Francis Tavino

But Marcus was a generous participant in what was then a novel approach to getting people together. We worked with him and his team to have the ingredients for our Taste of Fame dinner shipped to homes across the region. During the evening of the event, Marcus joined us on Zoom from the kitchen at his new restaurant to engage and entertain as he walked us through the steps to make a gourmet, three-course dinner in our homes. Then, he popped into private rooms throughout the evening to check in with guests during the dinner.

VP, Philanthropy Shannon Hanrahan VP, Sales & Marketing Rich Ezzo

If you joined us for that event, thank you, and I know that my family and friends will never forget peeling the world’s largest sweet potatoes as we made an incredible curry that was the centerpiece of the meal.

This year, we are so pleased to have Marcus back at Taste of Fame! This time, in person.

He will be working with the wonderful kitchen at Drumlins Country Club at Syracuse University to mark our 12th Annual Taste of Fame fundraiser. We know the food will be amazing and hope to see you there.

Directors Emeriti

And while I love cooking with family and friends, this year I will not miss peeling the potatoes! For more information and to purchase tickets, visit wcny.org/tasteoffame.

From Blueprint to Breakthrough: Tackling Affordable Housing in Buffalo Sponsored by JPMorganChase

Finding an affordable place to live continues to be a challenge for many as widespread housing shortages persist across the U.S. Rising home prices and high interest rates have made homeownership inaccessible for a large portion of the population. Meanwhile, as rental demand increases, the number of renters facing affordability challenges is also on the rise.

The State of the Nation’s Housing 2025 by Harvard University’s Joint Center for Housing Studies reveals that cost burdens for renters reached another record high in 2023. Similarly, the JPMorganChase Institute reports that renter affordability is declining and forcing people to devote more of their take-home pay to housing costs. There is a growing need for affordable housing across the U.S. and that rings true here in Buffalo.

To close that gap, it’s essential that all Buffalo residents share in its growth with housing options that accommodate a range of needs and budgets. For Regan Development Corp., this meant delivering a concrete solution to the local community, resulting in housing for individuals and families who otherwise might not have been able to live in the area.

Expanding Opportunity in Buffalo In Buffalo’s Central Park neighborhood, Amherst Commons is designed to help more individuals and families stay rooted in the community—close to everyday essentials, neighbors, and opportunity—without housing costs forcing tough tradeoffs.

Developed by Regan Development Corp., and constructed with support from JPMorganChase, the property brings 133 affordable apartments to 47 East Amherst Street. The development pairs stability with dignity and accessibility: ADA accessibility features help ensure more residents can live independently and community space for tenants creates room for connection, where neighbors can gather, share resources and build a stronger sense of belonging. In a tight housing market, Amherst Commons isn’t just a new building, it’s added capacity for Buffalo’s growth to include the people who keep the city running.

Larry Regan of Regan Development Corp. stated, “For the past 35 years, Regan Development Corp. has served as a tool for

redevelopment in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut’s older established cities, like Buffalo, where existing infrastructure, transportation options, services and employment opportunities already exist. This allows for the targeted smart growth of affordable housing in partnership with local and state authorities.”

“We’re proud of the far reaching impact this project will have.

It reflects Regan Development Corp.’s mission to uplift our communities and expands the supply of high quality, affordable homes,” said Jane Silverman, Community Development Banking, J.P. Morgan. “Every additional housing unit matters—and increasing the number that are affordable is critical.”

A broader commitment to Buffalo’s future While Amherst Commons is foundational, the vibrancy of a community depends on much more. In Buffalo, the firm provides banking services to more than 230,000 customers and works across sectors to expand economic opportunity. Over the last five years, JPMorganChase has invested more than $5 million in local nonprofit organizations, supported 10,000 small business clients and delivered financial health education to thousands of residents to broaden access to banking, financial health resources, homeownership and other wealth building tools.

“As we work with local stakeholders to expand housing options, JPMorganChase’s goal is to create inclusive economic opportunity for all,” said Matt Tipple, Managing Director, Private Bank and Chair, Upstate New York Market Leadership Team at JPMorganChase. “When our communities thrive, we all thrive.”
