Each day, the real estate industry focuses on infrastructure—but we shouldn’t forget about human infrastructure and that each child is an investment for the futur e, says Carnegie Corporation of New York president Vartan Gregorian, who along with wife Clare is being honored by our friends at the Citizens’ Committee for Children of New York at the MoMA next Tuesday evening.
