The Real Estate Group brought in a crowd today - if you have not been to this group, mark your calendar and get there ASAP! There was great energy - and I know from energy! How we managed to get through 60 people and still have time to network always amazes me, but it was done. I enjoyed seeing a few circuit rider, meeting up with current contacts and meeting new people. Thanks Michael, Scott, Steve and, of course, Fred for a great meeting. Oh, and if you didn't hear about the High Line Tour on June 9th, shoot me an email.

On Friday May17th in Plainview NY there will be a free program featuring David Phillips. MD I plan to be there and would love it if there were some Gotham members to introduce to Dr. Phillips. Dr. Phillips practiced emergency medicine and then shifted his focus to sports medicine. He personally has competed nationally and internationally in triathlons and qualified as a member of Team USA in the 2008 International Triathlon Union World Championships. He will be sharing his firsthand knowledge of the role of nutrition in the athletic arena. So whether you are an athlete, a coach, a weekend warrior or a couch potato, this presentation will impact how you view exercise and eating well. If you are interested, let me know and I will give you the details.

GOLDILOCKS HAD ISSUES: Remember this fable – one bed was too big, one too small, and one just right, and the porridge temperature, too hot, too cold, etc. (Who eats porridge these days?) Well on the serious side, I am seeking a lender for a small Manhattan development project. The developer has everything needed (including experience and equity partners) except the right banker/lender on the debt side of the equation, and specifically for a construction loan. The banks I have approached all say that the project is “too small” at less than ten good sized condominium units in a great neighborhood in northern Manhattan. If you or someone you know would be appropriate to approach on this subject, please contact me via email: kheller@halstead.com. Thank you kindly, Karen.

This is a great opportunity to network while having a great time and helping kids. A few friends/co-workers can go in on any one of these packages making more cost effective and more fun.
