The family of Dale Hemmerdinger, outgoing Metropolitan Transportation Authority chairman, is trying to take back control of the Shops at Atlas Park, a Queens mall it founded and then lost to foreclosure in February, sources told the New York Daily News. A foreclosure sale is expected to take place later this year or early in 2010, and community leaders in the Glendale neighborhood of Queens say the Hemmerdingers formed ATCO Advisory Services, a subsidiary of their retail management firm, to buy the mall back at the foreclosure sale. But Damon Hemmerdinger, Dale Hemmerdinger’s son, said that ATCO Advisory Services was not formed to bid on the mall.
