Evergreen Development Brings Fitness, Dining, and Retail to One of Gilbert’s Last Master-Planned Commercial Sites
GILBERT, Ariz., March 18, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Evergreen Development has construction well underway on Parkview at Morrison Ranch, a Mountainside Fitness-anchored neighborhood center at the northeast corner of Higley Road and Warner Road in Gilbert, Arizona. Completion of the approximately 15-acre development is targeted for Fall 2026. Sitework began in November, with vertical construction starting in February 2026.

Parkview at Morrison Ranch is one of the final remaining commercial parcels within the Morrison Ranch master-planned community. As Gilbert approaches build-out with a projected population exceeding 330,000, sites like this represent some of the most compelling development opportunities remaining in the East Valley.
The project advances alongside an active Evergreen pipeline across Arizona. The company recently started construction on Marketplace at Tres Rios, a Fry’s Marketplace-anchored shopping center in Avondale developed in partnership with the Vanderwey family and the City of Avondale, earning the support of both the mayor and city council. In multifamily, Evergreen executed a 90-day close on a shovel-ready Mesa apartment site which will join a second Evergreen apartment project already underway in Mesa. Three industrial projects are also nearing completion, advancing a sector expansion launched with the company’s first Arizona industrial groundbreaking in 2023.
“While many companies are forced to drop projects because they’re unable to secure debt or equity, we continue to move forward with the deals in our pipeline. We make it happen––that’s who we are,” said Laura Ortiz, President of Evergreen.
The center will include an approximately 41,000-square-foot Mountainside Fitness, a freestanding Chipotle Mexican Grill with dine-in service and a mobile pickup lane, Black Rock Coffee, a retail shops building, and multiple additional freestanding retail and service pads.
Evergreen developed Parkview at Morrison Ranch through a joint venture partnership with members of the Morrison family. That model has become a defining element of how Evergreen works: partnering directly with long-standing landowners to bring legacy parcels to market, structuring deals that align interests over the long term and delivering high-quality destinations that become natural extensions of the communities they serve.
“We are excited to see Parkview at Morrison Ranch come to life and to welcome Mountainside Fitness as a destination for health, wellness, and connection within the Morrison Ranch community,” said Bryan Lamond, Senior Vice President of Arizona Acquisitions at Evergreen. “Evergreen has earned a reputation as a partner of choice in the market, and we are grateful for the trust and collaboration of the Morrison family in bringing Parkview to fruition.”
The development team includes Joe Doucett (Newmark), Upward Architects, Hubbard Engineering, AR Mays, and Equity Bank.

Coastal Windows & Exteriors Completes Fifth ‘Roof for Heroes’ Donation for Marine Veteran in Middleborough
MIDDLEBOROUGH, Mass., March 20, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Coastal Windows & Exteriors (CWE) of Beverly today announced the installation of a complete GAF roofing system installation at no cost for Marine Corps veteran Lenny Szrlong at his Middleborough home. This marks the 5th Roof for Heroes donation since the program launched in 2020.

Photo caption: Stephanie Vanderbilt and Marine veteran Lenny Szrlong at the Middleborough home during the Roof for Heroes installation.
Szrlong, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran residing in Middleborough, Mass., was selected for this donation through Coastal Windows & Exteriors’ Roof for Heroes program. The initiative reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to serve those who have served our nation.
“This initiative holds dear to our hearts and mission as a company,” says Stephanie Vanderbilt, Owner of Coastal Windows & Exteriors. “Providing shelter means making a promise — a promise of protection and security. Donating a free GAF roofing system is a great way to keep that promise, as its layers of high-quality protection work together to keep the home and the people inside safe from the elements.”
The energy-efficient roofing installation features America’s #1 shingle brand, offering multi-layered defense against weather damage. The winter roof replacement helped provide leak prevention, guard against moisture penetration, minimize attic heat buildup, and prevent ice dam formation during harsh New England winters. This winter, the Farmers’ Almanac forecast a “Chill, Snow, Repeat” pattern, reinforcing the importance of a durable roofing system to protect homes from heavy snow, ice dams, and freezing temperatures common across New England.
Szrlong expressed his gratitude for the life-changing donation. “I’d like to thank Coastal Windows & Exteriors for this incredible opportunity,” said Szrlong. “As a Marine Corps veteran, and lifelong Massachusetts resident, it warms my heart that there are companies like this who help local veterans through real action and tangible results. Most contractors I’ve dealt with didn’t know their product, and only wanted a sale. Theo, and the rest of the team at Coastal proved they were different. And for that I am grateful!”
Roof for Heroes addresses an incredibly important need for veterans across the region. Many service members face financial hardship after their military service, making major home repairs impossible without assistance. A failing roof can lead to structural damage, health hazards from mold and moisture, and significant energy loss. Poor roofing performance accounts for up to 25% of a home’s total energy loss.
A properly installed roofing system from Coastal Windows & Exteriors regulates attic temperatures and maintains consistent heating in New England homes. The timing of this donation is critical, as electricity rates have increased 31% since 2021. Over the past year alone, National Grid rates increased 13% and natural gas rates jumped 27%. With a cold winter bringing higher energy bills, a high-performance roof delivers both immediate comfort and long-term savings for veteran families.
“Thank you so much for supporting our amazing Veterans. GAF is proud to support Coastal in this Roof for Heroes event,” said Lisa Kingsley, GAF New England Regional Sales Director.
“Reaching our 5th Roof for Heroes donation is a meaningful achievement for our team,” says Vanderbilt. “Each veteran we help represents a life changed and a family protected. We’re honored to continue this mission and look forward to supporting more veterans in the years ahead.”
“We can’t thank Coastal Windows & Exteriors enough for honoring those who served with a free roof…there is no better feeling than helping veterans in need. The town and veterans applaud your company for its compassion and commitment to helping veterans!” said Stephen Adelman, Chief Warrant Officer 2 (Retired), Veterans Service Officer, Town of Middleborough. “This is wonderful what you are doing, and the Veterans Office and Town can’t thank you enough for what you are doing for Lenny.”
“The town of Middleborough is grateful to Coastal Windows & Exteriors to provide this roof for Lenny, a deserving Vietnam veteran and Middleborough resident,” said Jay McGrail, Town Manager, Middleborough.
“I am so impressed that Coastal offers these free roofs for our veterans and I’m thrilled that they chose to replace one for Lenny, a Marine Veteran here in Middleborough,” said State Representative Norman Orrall (Precincts 2, 4 & 5).
“Our veterans deserve to feel safe and secure in their own homes. The Roof for Heroes program is a meaningful example of a community honoring service with action. By providing a new roof for Marine veteran Lenny Szrlong, Coastal Windows & Exteriors is making a real difference, and I’m proud to join Middleborough in recognizing Lenny’s service and sacrifice. Thanks for all you do!” said State Senator Kelly Dooner (3rd Bristol & Plymouth District).
CWE earned the Minuteman Service Award in 2022 for outstanding dedication and leadership supporting active-duty American military personnel and veterans. As an SBA award recipient for exceptional community service, the company’s commitment extends beyond the Roof for Heroes donations, offering a $750 additional discount on top of any current promotion for all military personnel, plus up to 20 years of financing based on credit approval.
“You protect our country, we protect your home,” Vanderbilt adds. “That’s the foundation of our Roof for Heroes program. We believe actions speak louder than words, and this is our way of demonstrating gratitude to the men and women who have sacrificed for our freedom.”

LOWELL, Mass., March 20, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — The Lowell Chamber Orchestra is proud to announce the finalists of its annual Young Artist Competition, along with the selection of 15 outstanding works from its Call-for-Scores initiative—together highlighting a vibrant season of emerging performers and composers.

Following a highly competitive preliminary round, a select group of young musicians has been chosen to advance as finalists in the Young Artist Competition. Representing exceptional talent from across the planet, these artists stood out for their technical command, musical sensitivity, and compelling artistry.
The finalists will perform in a live final round before a panel of distinguished judges. One winner will be selected to appear as featured soloists with the Lowell Chamber Orchestra in its upcoming season—an invaluable professional opportunity at a pivotal moment in their development—among other prizes.
In parallel, the orchestra’s Call-for-Scores attracted over 200 submissions from composers worldwide. After careful review, 15 scores have been selected to advance to a second round, with a new set of judges, from which one will be selected for performance in the orchestra’s 2026-2027 season. The selected scores reflect a diverse array of voices, styles, and creative perspectives. These selections underscore the orchestra’s commitment not only to performance excellence, but also to the cultivation of new music and living composers.
“Our mission is not only to perform great music, but to actively shape its future,” said Orlando Cela, the orchestra’s Music Director. “This year’s finalists and selected composers represent an exciting spectrum of creativity and talent. We are thrilled to support and showcase their work.”
The Lowell Chamber Orchestra continues to deepen its role as a cultural leader in the region by providing meaningful opportunities for both performers and composers. The Lowell Chamber Orchestra is Lowell’s only professional orchestra, and its concerts are free to the public, overcoming the socio-economic barriers that separate audiences from the best performances of classical music.

Adonna Wines Makes Its California Debut This Spring, Celebrating Heritage, Resilience, and the Art of the Moment
HEALDSBURG, Calif., March 20, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — On March 20, the first day of spring, Adonna Wines officially opens its spring allotment to the California market. Founded by Donna Kato, a Japanese American biochemist who left the world of science to tend the land and make wine of uncommon elegance, Adonna Wines is an allotment-only label available exclusively to mailing list members. The spring release includes the 2023 Pinot Noir, the 2024 White Pinot Noir, and the 2024 Chardonnay — each a reflection of a vineyard, and a founder, devoted to beauty, intention, and the irreplaceable nature of each moment.

Photo caption: Donna Kato, Proprietor Adonna Wines in the Canfield Vineyard, Russian River Valley, CA.
A SPRING RELEASE ROOTED IN MEANING
The timing of Adonna’s spring launch is no coincidence. March 20 carries resonance for Donna Kato both as the vernal equinox — a season of awakening and renewal — and as an echo of the Japanese tradition of hanami, the centuries-old custom of gathering beneath cherry blossoms as they bloom and fall, transient and luminous. At the heart of Adonna’s philosophy is the Japanese concept of Ichigo Ichie— “one time, one meeting” — a reminder that every shared moment is singular and will not come again, embedded in the wines, the label, and the way Donna approaches her craft.
“I wanted the wines to carry that feeling,” says Kato. “That a glass poured with the people you love is something that can never be exactly replicated.”
FROM BIOCHEMIST TO VINTNER: LIVING THE DREAM
Donna Kato’s path to wine was not a straight line — it was a life deliberately reimagined. A trained biochemist, Kato brought her analytical rigor, her reverence for nature, and a family legacy of farming — rooted in a great-grandfather who farmed peaches— to bear on one of California’s most treasured wine regions: the Russian River Valley. Her experience with breast cancer deepened her commitment to living with presence and purpose — the founding of Adonna Wines is, in every sense, the embodiment of that resolve. Kato holds a master’s degree in Viticulture & Enology from UC Davis, bringing scientific rigor alongside personal conviction to every vintage.
In December 2025, Forbes featured Kato in a profile by Chelsea Davis titled “From Heritage to Harvest: Japanese American Winemaker Donna Kato Debuts Adonna Wines.” The April 2026 issue of The Tasting Panel Magazine will profile Kato in a feature called “Women Who Raise the Bar in Wine,” in which Publisher Meridith May awards the 2023 Adonna Pinot Noir a score of 95 points. Kato also earned a Silver Medal at the prestigious San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition in March 2026 for its 2023 Russian River Pinot Noir.
CANFIELD VINEYARD: REGENERATIVE FARMING IN THE RUSSIAN RIVER VALLEY
The backbone of Adonna Wines is Canfield Vineyard, a five-clone, 100% Pinot Noir estate in the southern reaches of the Russian River Valley, influenced by the Petaluma Gap and the Pacific Ocean — one of the coolest and most distinctive sites in the appellation. Originally planted in 2009 under the stewardship of Judy Jordan of J Vineyards, the vines now belong to Donna Kato, who is grafting two acres to Chardonnay this year as her vineyard program evolves.
Upon acquiring the vineyard, Donna began a comprehensive restoration program grounded in regenerative farming principles — an effort that has become central to Adonna’s identity. The vineyard is Certified California Sustainable through the California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance.
At Canfield, 40 Navajo sheep graze the cover crop under the watch of vineyard manager Cody Garzini and a Maremma sheepdog named Honey, who keeps a devoted daily vigil over the flock. The wines from Canfield are crafted by talented winemaker Ashley Holland, who trained under the legendary Bob Cabral at Three Sticks Wines. Adonna also sources Pinot Noir from Eden Vineyard and Chardonnay from the esteemed Martaella Vineyard.
THE WINES
The spring 2026 allotment features three wines, available March 20 – May 1:
2023 Pinot Noir, Russian River Valley | $85 | 95 Points, Tasting Panel Magazine
2024 White Pinot Noir, Canfield Vineyard, Russian River Valley | $65
2024 Chardonnay, Martaella Vineyard, Russian River Valley | $85
Members of the Allotment List may purchase up to six bottles total — two of each wine with a spring and fall offering. Wines are available exclusively in California, with expansion to other markets planned. In fall 2026, Adonna will release the first Estate Pinot Noir from Canfield Vineyard. To join the allotment list, visit adonnawines.com.
A COMMITMENT TO THE ARTS, CULINARY EXCELLENCE, AND COMMUNITY
From the outset, Adonna Wines has expressed itself through cultural engagement as much as viticulture. Kato collaborated with celebrated Japanese calligraphy and performance artist Aoi Yamaguchi, whose work — described by the New York Times as “transcendent” — animates the brand’s visual language. On March 20, Adonna serves as a Sponsor of the Fork2Film Festival in St.Helena, a fitting celebration as the spring allotment opens. Adonna has also supported the San Francisco Symphony’s Lunar New Year Concert (February 28) and the James Beard Foundation Taste America Bay Area event (March 1) — underscoring Kato’s commitment to excellence in both the culinary and cultural worlds.
ABOUT ADONNA WINES
Adonna Wines is a small-production, allotment-only label founded by Donna Kato, a Japanese American biochemist-turned-vintner. Rooted in the Certified Sustainable Canfield Vineyard in the Russian River Valley, Adonna produces Pinot Noir, White Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay of refined elegance and deep site expression. The brand name is drawn from the Latin donna — “a lady” — woven together with founder Donna Kato’s own name, and its wines are available exclusively to members of the Adonna Allotment List. Wines are released twice yearly, in spring and fall, and are currently available in California only. For more information or to join the mailing list, visit https://www.adonnawines.com/.

Former DOE NEPA Chief and Save LBI Advocacy President Warns SPEED Act Would ‘Eviscerate’ Environmental Protections and Violate the Constitution
LONG BEACH ISLAND, N.J., March 19, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Bob Stern, Ph.D., President of Save Long Beach Island (LBI) Advocacy and former manager of the Office of National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Affairs for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), today issued a sharp warning regarding the Senate’s consideration of the Standardized Permitting and Expediting Economic Development (SPEED) Act. While framed as “permitting reform,” Stern argues the bill is a dangerous overreach that threatens the bedrock of American environmental law and constitutional separation of powers.

Image caption: Save Long Beach Island (LBI) Advocacy.
“The SPEED Act does contain some useful deadlines for Agency action but goes way too far and essentially eviscerates the NEPA itself,” Stern said. “This bill ignores the reality that delays are often caused by poor Agency implementation and a failure to fully disclose environmental impacts. In many cases, it isn’t the NEPA vehicle that needs fixing, but rather the ‘nut’ behind the wheel.”
FLAWED IMPLEMENTATION, NOT FLAWED LAW
Only a few agencies have a problem with the National Environmental Policy Act. Stern highlighted the extensive litigation facing the nation’s current offshore wind program as a primary example of implementation failure. He noted that the Department of the Interior (DOI) currently awards lease areas — the most important environmental decision — with virtually no environmental impact information, locking developers into flawed locations and inevitably leading to downstream litigation when environmental problems are brought to light years later in environmental impact statements (EIS), other statutory reviews, and comments by informed stakeholders.
COUNTERPRODUCTIVE REQUIREMENTS
“The bill limits the scope of environmental reviews to the ‘immediate’ and ‘proximate’ effects of a project, dismissing impacts that are caused by the project but separated geographically and timewise,” explained Thomas Stavola Jr. Esq., attorney on behalf of Save Long Beach Island Advocacy. “It also would eliminate the current requirement for an assessment of cumulative impacts. While this may make a consultant’s life easier, it conflicts with well-established case law and the full disclosure requirements of the Act.”
Stavola further noted that “a decision-maker considering such limited information would not be operating in the “real world” and, therefore prone to making flawed decisions, creating more opportunity for litigation and delay.
CONSTITUTIONAL AND LEGAL RED FLAGS
In an extensive markup sent to Senators Sheldon Whitehouse and Martin Heinrich, Save LBI Advocacy identified many provisions in the House-passed version of the SPEED Act that are counterproductive, legally indefensible, and in need of major revision:
- Citizen Rights: The bill would limit the rights of affected parties to seek relief in Court, which conflicts with the standing prerequisites mandated by Article III of the Constitution. It also conflicts with and violates the Administrative Procedures Act (APA), which holds that a person adversely affected or aggrieved by an agency action is entitled to judicial review.
- Restrictions on the Courts: The proposed restrictions on vacatur and injunctive relief improperly constrain judicial power and contradict the APA’s clear mandate to “set aside” or vacate unlawful agency actions. By dictating deference to agency judgement of impact, the bill undermines the court’s ability to equitably weigh harms to the parties involved.
- Conflicts with SCOTUS Precedent: The requirement for “substantial deference” to agencies violates the recent U.S. Supreme Court Chevron deference reversal ruling, which now demands that courts exercise independent judgment in interpreting statutes.
- Separation of Powers: Provisions that make a court’s remand power contingent on developer consent constitute an unconstitutional impingement on Article III judicial authority.
CONCLUSIONS
“This is not good law,” Stern concluded. “In its present form, the bill creates confusion and does not foster wise decision-making. It would eviscerate NEPA, which has been a bedrock of national environmental policy for over 50 years, and stands in direct conflict with other law and the Constitution itself. Most importantly, the bill does not address the root causes of many delays, which can be fixed with more informed and cooperative applicant and agency staff work.
A CALL FOR CAUTION
Save LBI Advocacy is calling on the Senators Whitehouse and Heinrich to exercise extreme caution in proceeding with the SPEED Act to be sure they are: (1) addressing the root causes of delay and not creating more chaos and confusion, which will serve no one, and (2) not removing environmental protections that have served us well for over a half-century. To that end, Save LBI Advocacy is asking them to consider its markup of the bill, which can still achieve significant permitting reform while preserving the Act.
