New York To Practice At Northwell 9/1/16-2026

Related Topics: mention

Long story short we found out 3/7/16 what became of what was Charles Wang's former agreement at Cantiague Park for the 5.1 million dollars he was owed from the Lighthouse project back in escrow from June of 2015. (see past entries)

Islanders agree to move all practices to Northwell beginning 9/1/16.
Cantiague get's one million for upgrades, no mention of the Islanders involvement.
No mention of the other 600k. (5.1m vs 3.5+1m last summer)

County legislature of course cleared room, and went into special session for a long time, before Islanders lawyer took a few questions, most from one representative about agreement being binding and construction being within footprint of current building.
