2024 Year in Review:
Gregg Burnett, DiPrete Engineering

What was your greatest professional accomplishment or most notable project, deal, or transaction in 2024?
In 2024, my greatest professional accomplishment has been overseeing and contributing to several major industrial warehouse projects throughout Massachusetts, all of which are either under construction or nearing completion. These projects are not just significant in their scale, but they also address a long-standing need in the region’s commercial real estate market. The growing demand for logistics and warehousing spaces has been a key driver, particularly with the continued growth of e-commerce and the need for businesses to streamline their supply chains.

What emerging trends will drive investment and development in 2025? 
In 2025, several emerging trends are expected to drive investment and development, notably in the areas of interest rates and affordable housing legislation. These trends are poised to shape economic landscapes, creating new opportunities and challenges for investors, developers, and policymakers alike.
