In what way has the New England Real Estate Journal been a benefit to you and your business? For many years, the New England Real Estate Journal has afforded the City of Warwick the opportunity to promote the benefits of our community to business owners and developers alike. Through our partnership with NEREJ, the city also has been able to share information about the many positive initiatives, new programs, organizations and events that make our community a wonderful place in which to live and work. The ability to reach a large, regional audience has certainly helped our ongoing efforts to increase and diversify our commercial base over time.
How long have you been affiliated with the commercial real estate industry? As a former city councilman, and in my present role as mayor, I have worked closely with the business community and the real estate industry for close to 25 years. These partnerships have been invaluable in promoting economic development in Warwick.
