NAIOP Massachusetts

Don't miss this! Today in an op-ed published by Boston Globe Media, NAIOP member and Massachusetts Tax Expert Daniel Swift of Ryan writes that Mayor Wu's property tax proposal could cause irreparable harm in Boston's downtown. "The increase could force businesses to make tough decisions about how — and whether — to continue operating, could necessitate businesses passing the costs to consumers, and could hamper efforts to secure tenants for tens of millions of square feet of unoccupied commercial space. New economic growth could come to a halt as the additional tax burden is piled onto the growing list of other cost increases facing developers." https://lnkd.in/gVaXJvsi #mapoli #bospoli

Last week we hosted NAIOP Massachusetts at 1001 Boylston Street. It's always exciting opening a new building and finally getting to share it with others. Thank you to those who came to hear about the project.

NAIOP Massachusetts has a few events to look forward to this summer. On July 17th, attend “Step into the Future: Charlestown Walking Tour” from 3:00 PM to 6:30 PM. The event will kick off with a panel of leading developers who will discuss how they are investing in the future of the Charlestown community. Panelists include Adelaide Grady from Leggat McCall Properties, Will Grosvenor from Related Beal, Chris Kaneb from Catamount Management Corporation and Devin Quirk from Boston Planning & Development Agency. Guests will then be able to tour Hood Park Charlestown and the Public Art Garden. Then, on September 13th from 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM, join NAIOP for a virtual introductory seminar called “Cleaning Up the Commonwealth: Introduction to Redeveloping Brownfields Sites”. It is a course designed to give students the foundation they need to navigate Brownfields redevelopment. Class instructors are Lisa Campe from Woodard & Curran and Ned Abelson from Goulston & Storrs.

Commercial real estate friends -- I'm teaching a crisis comms seminar for NAIOP! What keeps you awake at night? A. Construction accidents? B. Workplace harassment complaints? C. Permitting process beset by negative community feedback? D. Local Facebook group that always shares inaccurate info about your project? E. Project timelines delayed by financial challenges? My guess is actually ALL of the above and more! If that's the case, come join me at NAIOP University on June 12 for a crash course in managing crisis in the Commercial Real Estate space. We'll talk about spotting the signs of a crisis early, hot topics that are sure to generate news or digital buzz, and ways to share authentic, timely and transparent messages even in fast moving situations. Plenty of time for Q&A and lots of real life scenarios will be discussed. https://lnkd.in/ehRVkyFD PS -- if you are NOT in the CRE industry and interested, drop me a line and we'll find a way to connect on this topic.
