2017 Annual Review: Katie Enright of Howard Stein Hudson
What was your greatest professional accomplishment in 2017? Howard Stein Hudson continues to expand the Chelmsford office by providing traffic engineering services along with its growing land development civil engineering staff. We are currently at six (6) full time staff and three (3) co-ops.
What was your most notable project, deal, or transaction in 2017? The Town of Chelmsford recently went through a zoning overhaul of its industrial districts along the Rte. 129 corridor. HSH was able to pinpoint a location within the zoning overlay allowing for a multifamily development and introduced the potential to a local developer whom was recently approved, with HSH’s engineering and permitting expertise, for 168 apartment units within the new district, aiding in Chelmsford’s vision for a “live, work, play” environment.
What are your predictions for commercial real estate in 2018? I believe the future of commercial real estate lies in the creativity of the commmercial real estate agents and advisors to see the potential in the existing infrastructure and come up with work sharing concepts and integrated amenities to bring the existing commercial buildings into the future.
