Herbert Roy Zucker is a Merrill Lynch executive who leads The Zucker Group and works with clients in defining objectives and delivering asset allocation strategies. Community involved Herbert Roy Zucker has supported waterfront revitalization efforts in the small community of Glen Cove, Long Island.
Situated on Long Island’s north shore, Glen Cove offers easy access to New York City, making it a manufacturing hub for more than 200 years. However, by the early 1980s, the industrial sector had largely departed the area, leaving approximately 200 waterway-adjacent acres contaminated, abandoned, and undredged for over three decades. With economic activity and property values impacted, a Glen Cove Waterfront Revitalization Plan was drawn up in the mid 1990s that employed a community-based approach in bringing together private and public cleanup partners. The result of this $40-million effort led to the restoration of a full mile of the waterfront into a commercially usable condition. The Partners to Revitalize Glen Cove’s Waterfront also implemented open space preservation measures. It established a network of bike and pedestrian pathways to encourage the recreational use of a shared community asset.
