I want to warmly thank all of our advertisers who helped make this first issue a reality. It does not seem like that many years ago when I got my start in the commercial property business as a licensed real estate broker. I am intimately familiar with the ups and downs that brokers face and how critical it is to earn and keep the respect of potential clients. Commercial brokers today are keenly aware of how important it is to not only recommend the right building for their client, but also to recommend the right landlord. Delinquent loans on commercial real estate are the highest they have been in years. These statistics do not bode well for tenants who leased space five years ago anticipating their landlord would be there to meet their needs and maintain their properties. Presently, many of those landlords are simply out of money, and as a result, the properties (and the tenants) suffer. The market is changing, as it always does. Two years ago, I would have called it a tenants’ market, and it certainly still is in some areas. In our nation’s premier markets, however, there has been a flight to quality during the last few years. What was an abundance of opportunities has now dimin- ished, as tenants clamor for the best properties. Further fueling this dynamic is a realization that new supply production is challenging on many fronts. How are we as a buyer participating in this market? We are very careful to buy only top properties in top-tier markets. When a strategy warrants it, we also will take a well-located, but under-performing asset and elevate that property so that it does not compete on a commodity basis. A great case study is our enhancement of the iconic Providence Towers property in Dallas, Texas. (See story on page 20.) There are many exciting topics explored in this issue of Premier Office Magazine. Be sure to also see our “Outside the Office” column written by our friend and PGA star, Bobby Lasken. Bobby has coached some of the nation’s top pros and has been a tremendous help to my game — as you will see from his story, it’s all about preparation. God Bless America! Charles J.

  • [The Hughes Court and Radical Dissent]
    1 Chapter --- [Civil Liberties and Civil Rights] In early April 1937 the Supreme Court struck down black Communist Angelo Herndon‟s conviction for attempting to incite insurrection. The next day Felix Frankfurter wrote his protégé Charles Wyzanski, then serving in the Solicitor General‟s office, “I should like to bet you 10 to 1 that for the rest of the term the Court will sustain everything that should be sustained and invalidate, as in the Herndon case, everything that will vindicate the Court as the unflagging guardian of our liberties!”1 Frankfurter was hardly prescient about the Court‟s likely approach to economic cases; the Court had already upheld the National Labor Relations Act two weeks earlier. His implicit linkage of Herndon and the economic cases did signal the beginning of the new Court‟s confrontation with the two issues. In the course of that confrontation the modern law of civil rights and civil liberties was born. Frankfurter‟s cynical observation about Herndon signaled the difficulties the Court‟s new members, including within a few years Frankfurter himself, would face. The Progressive jurisprudence that Frankfurter shared and to which he had contributed gave Roosevelt‟s justices few resources to use in cases involving civil liberties and civil rights. In its broad sweep that jurisprudence emphasized that constitutional analysis must take seriously the importance of social values asserted by democratic legislatures; in its application of judicial review it cautioned strongly against judicial displacement of social value choices in the name of what justices said were enduring values but that were likely to be simply the values the justices personally ranked most highly.
