Pyramid used influence to push Poughkeepsie mall approval
The Pyramid Cos faced ethics scrutiny over alleged use of campaign funds to sway a 1985 Poughkeepsie town board vote on a 109 acre site for a Galleria mall. The ensuing actions shifted the board majority, approving the zone change, while Pyramid faced federal and state probes over financing and contracting practices tied to Syracuse projects.

Adler ties to Pyramid loom over Carousel Center talks
Prosecutors say Adler failed to disclose his financial link to Pyramid, a factor in mail fraud charges tied to the Palisades Center project. The case involves payments from EklecCo to Adler via Turnpike Management, with officials noting no expected impact on ongoing Syracuse tax negotiations for Carousel Center. Local officials defend the process while Pyramid partners deny any improper influence.
