The new ownership company is controlled by Menajem Salamon, the chief executive officer of a Bronx-based company called Essential Care.
According to a $31.15 million mortgage that New Haven Propco LLC and a host of other Salamon-controlled companies received from KeyBank on Nov. 1, Salamon is also the manager for the companies New Haven Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation LLC, Southport Propco LLC, Southport Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation LLC, Torrinngton Propco LLC, Torrington Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation LLC, Waterbury Propco LLC, Waterbury Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation LLC, West Haven Propco LLC, West Haven Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation LLC, and Elm City Healthcare Ventures LLC.
