Hogan Cos CEO Larry Hogan (snapped this morning) is an apt speaker for Bisnow's Future of the Annapolis/BWI Corridor event coming up on Dec. 15, considering he moved to Annapolis and liked it so much that he moved his company there from Prince George's County 15 years ago. As the I-270 and I-95 corridors grew, he tells us, no one was thinking about going a little east to this historic town on the Chesapeake Bay waterfront (it has sailing and is an easy drive to either Baltimore or DC). Businesses are starting to notice, though, he says, and the quality of life is getting even better withupscale restaurants and retail.
In fact, Larry's finding little reason to leave his current hometown, except maybe to check out land development opportunities in other frontiers like Odenton, where Hogan and Bonaventure are building240 apartments (above).
