Enjoy the Benefits of Ownership While Planning Ahead for Your Retirement
We want you to have a long and rewarding career here at STV. At STV, your initiative and performance help drive the company. It’s simple—when the company succeeds, you succeed. And, when it’s time to retire we want you to feel ready. We’ll help you build your nest egg.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
Think of it as more than a retirement plan. As an STV employee, you can be an owner in five years. STV is a privately held company that is 100% owned by its employees who are in the company-sponsored Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). Each year, STV contributes an amount equivalent to a percentage of your salary and invests it in STV stock. You contribute nothing. Once eligible, the longer you stay with us, the more stock you own in the company. This means your performance matters. With your ESOP, you reap the rewards of your best effort.
401(k) Savings Plan
As pre-tax savings, STV’s 401(k) plan is designed to help employees save for retirement while reducing current taxes. With a wide variety of investment options, the plan is available to all employees who wish to participate, with Fidelity Investments serving as the investment manager.
LIGHTS SHINE AGAIN ON CONEY ISLAND’S
RESTORED PARACHUTE JUMP
New York, NY, July 7, 2006 -- After seven years of planning, design and restoration by STV, the lights went on and the magic returned to the Coney Island Parachute Jump at a festive ceremony at Coney Island, NY.
The iconic, landmarked Parachute Jump, at 277 feet and weighing 170 tons, was the nation’s most famous vertical thrill ride from 1941 to 1969, when it closed permanently. It provided high drama to as many as half a million riders annually at Coney Island’s Famous Steeplechase Park. Borough President Marty Markowitz has nicknamed the structure Brooklyn's Eiffel tower.
The New York City Economic Development Corporation, the Brooklyn Borough President’s office, and the New York City Parks Department, were the clients for the project. STV, under project director Al Thompson, provided condition assessment, planning, design, structural rehabilitation and construction oversight services. Leni Schwendinger Light Projects Ltd. was the lighting consultant.
The Parachute Jump was modeled after parachute towers used by the military to train paratroopers in the 1930’s and was originally featured at the 1939 Worlds Fair in Flushing Meadows, Queens. The chutes, with a two-seat sling for passengers, were hoisted up the 277 feet and released to be guided down by cables. The descent took between ten and fifteen seconds.
