We stopped by a CREW DC reception in Chevy Chase last night for members that have been with the organization for 10-plus years or have been in real estate for over 20 years. Snapped here: special guest and PBS anchor Judy Woodruffflanked by current CREW DC president Betsy Karmin of DLA Piper and immediate past president Sadhvi Subramanian of CapitalOne.
Marcus & Millichap's Peggy Smith (with STUDIOS' Jane Goldstein) was one of the founding members of CREW DC, the first such chapter nationwide. She says it's been a thrill to watch the local group grow from three members in 1978 to almost 400 today.
We snapped one of our own, Bisnow'sMarie Finnegan, flanked by Capital Design's Susan Denner and Studley's Wendy Feldman-Block.
A trio of designers: KlingStubbins' Joanne Barrera, AECOM's Ruth Jansson, and New Leaf Collaborative's Marilyn Burroghs. A single-family home in Arlington that New Leaf designed just earnedLEED Gold certification, Marilyn tells us. (You thought it was hard getting tenants to change their behavior to go green? What if that behavior is literally a chore?)
