| Cole Schotz's Allison Lange Lissner (with colleague Wendy Berger) tells us she's seeing a significant increase in office and retail leasing, mostly in Midtown South. (Where have we heard that before?) She's headed to England this summer for some Olympics and some in-laws. Wendy is working on the opening of Newark's Dinosaur Bar-B-Q next to the Prudential Center. The Syracuse grad is excited to bring a taste of that town to New Jersey. |

| Nicole Horne heads up acquisitions and dispositions for Brixmor Property Group (formerly Centro Properties) and tells us she's actively seeking grocery-anchored centers in major urban markets, Swedbank's Anna Hertzman is on the tail-end of working out a troubled hotel loan portfolio her firm inherited from Lehman. A.C. Desk's Nancy Kahn-Rosenthal says education space-users are expanding and posting big demand for furniture. She also just got into the NYC m via the lottery, ensuring she'll continue her streak to five consecutive runs there. And Merchants Properties' Lynne Mekeel tells us her firm does property management and financing, adding that it's a full-time job keeping up with the new City regulations on elevators, sprinklers, boilers, fuel upgrades, and the like. "Not much fun, but someone has to do it." |
