Danger: The smiles at the CenterPoint Properties booth were so inviting, we bought two buildings. CenterPoint's Shannon Mullen,Alan Bouchier-Hayes, and Nicole Navarro are celebrating the groundbreaking of the new Joliet intermodal; it should be completed in 2010, with surrounding buildings to be developed soon. Skysite's Jeff Grossberg was also on hand, gauging the interest of industrial developers and brokers in green building technologies. |
