I had a good chat today with someone I really admire, Vice Chairman of Savills North America, Steve Berliner. Not only is he a fabulous tennis player who trained with John McEnroe as a junior and went on to win multiple medals for the USA at the Maccabiah Games, but he is a highly successful commercial real estate advisor and leader. Plus, he's a great guy.

Steve talked about his tennis and professional background and gave some valuable insight on the future of the Manhattan real estate market. He worked across the street from the World Trade Center in New York during the terrorist attacks in 2001 and describes how the city has grown and developed since then. He is optimistic on the future of his city and country.
