Case Study: Columbia Island – Paradise Awaits

Everyone dreams about having their own private island. From the beautiful views, the calm ocean, and relaxing atmosphere, what isn’t there to love? For our stainless steel equipment, the dream has become a reality.

Accessed only by boat, Columbia Island is home to an innovative 5,600 sq. ft. residence located in New Rochelle, New York, about 30 minutes from Manhattan. The home features an open kitchen and an amazing view of the Long Island Sound and nearby Pea Island. Head up to the roof and enjoy stunning views of New York City and New Rochelle as well. This is what dreams are made of.

The home’s current owner, Al Sutton, is a human rights activist & film producer who decided to undertake the project of building the perfect home on a perfect island. After much work & endless debate, he decided to put Columbia Island up for sale for an asking price of $13 million. 

So, how did our equipment end up on this island? Here’s the long and the short of it.

A Distinct Opportunity

We were approached by a well-known consultant regarding a collaborative effort on a different kind of project. Little did we know the project turned out to be a private island! Seeing that our equipment is found in dining facilities, hotels, casinos, restaurants, schools, prisons, etc., this was certainly an opportunity that could not be passed up.

Engineering & fabrication were put on high alert for this one as it was one of the most unique applications ever. Once the items were constructed, delivery & installation was carried out with incredible efficiency.
