[Fredslist] Gotham Green® Member selected Queens Chamber of Commerce Executive Director

Wed Jul 1 14:26:43 EDT 2015

Gotham please join me in congratulating my good friend Tom Grech <http://www.gothamnetworking.com/TomGrech> who started as Executive Director of the Queens Chamber of Commerce (announcement below (unless you are on digest and I will be please to forward) today (July 1, 2015).  

I have worked with Tom on any number of projects and endeavors over the several years we’ve known each other.  Some (maybe all)  may also recall Tom became a member of GOtham GREEN® last December when his then company won one of our prestigious GOtham GREEN Awards®.   Tom succeeds my late friend and fellow Gotham Towers member, Jack Friedman, who was a great asset to Gotham.   

Tom already proved an asset to Gotham in his prior gig and we expect him to become a greater asset in his new role.

Best.

-Corey
