09-25-2013 - The First Annual Codman Company Reunion to be held September 25 at Empire Restaurant & Lounge

According to Nickerson PR, The First Annual Codman Company Reunion is set for Wednesday, September 25. The event is open to all past employees of The Codman Company, Inc. and will take place from 6 to 9 p.m. at Empire Restaurant & Lounge in the city's Seaport District. The Codman Co. was founded in 1872 and rapidly grew to become a major force in Boston and New England Real Estate. As a leading, full service real estate firm, The Codman Co. had an outstanding track record of successful performance for its commercial, industrial, residential, management and consulting clients. The Codman Co. was bought in 2008 by Newmark Grubb Knight Frank, a global commercial real estate advisory firm. As Codman was one of the leading real estate firms in the city for over 130 years, many of its alumni are still actively involved in the city's real estate industry. The Codman Reunion invites all past employees to join together to share stories of the camaraderie and teams they built during their years with the company. As the first of many future reunions, it is the hope that Codman's Boston alumni will meet, reconnect and reminisce with one another to keep the Codman network alive and well in Boston. "As Codman was such a leading force in New England real estate, nearly everyone in the industry in Boston has had some affiliation with the company," said Lisa A. Nickerson, Principal of Nickerson PR. As Lisa both worked as a Commercial Leading Broker and Investment Sales Broker and served as the Vice President of Marketing and Business Development at The Codman Company prior to founding Nickerson PR, she expressed her own enthusiasm for the upcoming reunion. "It will be very exciting to bring everyone together again. There are so many stories to share and friends to catch up with, so it will definitely not be an event to miss."
