December 4, 2009

| Despite yesterday’s high of 65 degrees, we later joined NYCREW at The Aspen Club for its winter gala and Vanguard Awards. (The whole real estate community seemed to be in a festive mood last night—the Mortgage Bankers Association/YMBA and ULI also had holiday shindigs.) Here, Nancy Wood, LVM Group’s Jeannette Boccini, Pier Head Associates’ Sheri Best, Crowell & Moring’s Barbara Champoux, and Chicago Title’s Patricia Lopinski. Barbara, who won this year’s Vanguard award for mentoring, tells us that despite this economy, leasing is very active—even in the rare new construction going on. |

| Introducing 2010’s Radio City Rockettes. They still have to work on form and high kicks, but everyone’s been working so hard in real estate, there hasn’t been much time to practice (and unlike the toy soldiers, we’re proud to say that everyone’s still standing). Don’t worry, we still have a year until the next Christmas Spectacular. |
