Marimba Milliones

President & CEO

Hill CDC

Marimba Milliones is president and CEO of the Hill Community Development Corporation (Hill CDC) in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania's historic Hill District neighborhood. She is a practitioner of and national thought leader in equitable development. Her work is focused on assuring equity in urban-core redevelopment involving low-moderate income residents, communities of color and cities. Milliones advocates for and utilizes intentional planning and development practices that honor people, place, culture and the market. She believes in win-win models. To this end, Milliones led negotiations of a community benefits agreement with the National Hockey League's Pittsburgh Penguins to assure equitable development for a historic tract of land in the heart of fast-growing Pittsburgh. The establishment of a city-wide affordable housing task force, and the largest tax financing district in the history of the City of Pittsburgh were sealed as a part of the negotiations.

Milliones' policy advocacy over the years has resulted in a more equitable approach to development throughout the City. She has designed processes that assure that marginalized communities can be self-determinative in real estate development including community-level review and approval of projects requiring public subsidy. Her organization has pipelined and is preparing over 400 renters for homeownership; and recently launched a residential and commercial community land trust. Most notable is Milliones' work towards building a Black cultural and commercial neighborhood district anchored by the restoration of the historic New Granada Theater, new office space and storefronts, and 40 units of artist-preference affordable housing. The $55M+ mixed-use development effort will be an iconic example of how culture is a surefire economic development tool.

Milliones has received numerous recognitions and has served on numerous boards including the transition team for Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf's Department of Community and Economic Development. A graduate of North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University with a Bachelor of Science in Education, and a Master of Science from Duquesne University in Multimedia (Interactive) Technology, she is a passionate communicator who utilizes her educational background to deepen conversations and dismantle complex concepts for everyday people, especially Hill District residents. She is a member of Leadership Pittsburgh Class XXXI and LeadNow Pgh II. Milliones is a Gallup Certified Strengths Coach and brings a strengths-based approach to organizational and community development. She has been recognized by the New Pittsburgh Courier, YMCA, Onyx Woman, Talk Magazine and others. In 2015, she was recognized by Pittsburgh Magazine as one of Pittsburgh's 15 Future Powerbrokers. She was recently listed in Pittsburgh Business Times' 2020 List of the Top 20 people to know in Construction in the Pittsburgh Region.

James Scalo

President & CEO

Burns Scalo Real Estate

Over the past thirty years, visionary entrepreneur Jim Scalo has built one of the largest integrated real estate businesses in Western Pennsylvania, Burns & Scalo Real Estate Services, Inc. (BSRES), which currently owns, manages, and provides third-party real estate services to more than 5 million square feet of commercial real estate assets. Following his graduation with a degree in Marketing from Indiana University of Pennsylvania in the early 80’s, Jim Scalo began his career as a manager of a small portfolio of rental investment properties owned by Burns & Scalo, a roofing company started in 1956 by his father and a partner. Soon, he expanded that residential rental business by taking on the management of larger properties and acting as a commercial developer. He was later named Director of Development, and in recognition of his contributions to growing the firm, in 1994 he was named President and CEO of Burns & Scalo Real Estate Services, Inc. – a company for which he now owns 100% interest. Jim Scalo has been largely self-taught in the real estate business, a fact that has served him well in building his current service and investment businesses exponentially. He often states that people hire BSRES due to the invaluable experience the firm has gained through investing and managing real estate with his own capital - as an owner – a fact that few other real estate service companies can claim in offering real value for their clients. Jim was a pioneer in the early development of ‘flex’ space, a combination of office and warehouse space joined together to create efficiency. He has been highly successful in bold real estate investments throughout the region, serving the worlds largest clients by controlling ‘key’ land parcels in suburban business parks. He is often quoted “We have built our portfolio with the common underwriting criteria of “term, credit, rate”. This has served BSRES well through the cycles of investment. In 2009, as a testament to Jim’s commitment to better development through sustainability, he trademarked “Class-G”. A program which was launched in 2012 as a new national business (www.Class-G.org) that focused on green building certification for sustainability in operations and corporate culture. The company has developed projects in key targeted markets such as Pittsburgh, Indianapolis, Raleigh, Cincinnati and Louisville. Jim continues to push the boundaries of his firm through innovation and strategic growth, and has market-changing projects currently under development in new locations. Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Jim Scalo is active in professional, community and charitable organizations. He is the former president and national board member of the National Association of Industrial and Office Properties (NAIOP). Jim is also married and is the father of four children.

Why This Matters

What You'll Learn:

- Downtown Pittsburgh's recovery has begun. How will corporate Pittsburgh's return play in it? Has the Delta variant changed those plans?

- Work from home has changed the way many think about the balance of being in the office and being at home. Will we see a change in demand from renters who want more out of their space at home? How will this impact the Downtown and Suburban multifamily and office markets?

- Pre-pandemic, Pittsburgh was seeing a surge in companies opening up offices in the city. How can Pittsburgh pick up where it left off and continue to attract companies and retain top talent?

- What role can residential and retail play in connecting neighborhoods like Polish Hill, Lawrenceville, Strip District and Bloomfield?

How You'll Do More Business: Many businesses put expansion plans on pause in 2020. As the world reopens the CRE community is looking to get back on track, with new neighborhoods ripe with development opportunities. 

Who You'll Meet: Pittsburgh leading developers and brokers, city officials, engineers, investors, and architects.
