NOT ON VACATION
July 11, 2012
Dining with us in his work clothes at BOA Steakhouse in Santa Monica recently, Bob Sonnenblick demonstrates why he left New York 30 years ago to come west. Well, in addition to the fact that the renowned company founded by his grandfather in 1910—which financed much of New York’s skyline—made him head of West Coast operations, where he helped finance much of downtown LA’s booming skyline in the ‘80s. Nearly 25 years ago, he went on to start Sonnenblick Development, which has not only developed numerous federal and commercial office buildings, but also resorts in places like Park City, Palm Springs, and Palm Beach, where he can also get fresh air and additional use of his colorful shirts. |
