Markowitz, Silverstein Address Counselors of Real Estate Meeting in New York
Marty Markowitz, Borough President of Brooklyn; and Larry Silverstein, Silverstein Properties, redeveloper of the World Trade Center office component, headlined The Counselors of Real Estate's Midyear Meetings program in New York. Markowitz said Brooklyn's emergence as the fastest growing borough is due in large part to an influx of creative and tech sector businesses and their employees. Silverstein described the WTC and downtown area of Manhattan as "transformed" into a 24/7 urban center now that redevelopment of the site has progressed to its current level, similarly attracting young professionals.
