Westchester’s “Mall Knocker-Downer” Is Key to Region’s Revitalization
Louis Cappelli, a veteran developer with decades of experience reshaping Westchester County, has recently embraced the moniker “the Mall Knocker-Downer,” a testament to his current ambitious projects focused on revitalizing urban centers.
