Bedrock Taps San Francisco, Chicago Development Veterans for Chief Executive Roles, Creates Community Growth and Development Team BEDROCK TAPS SAN FRANCISCO, CHICAGO DEVELOPMENT VETERANS FOR CHIEF EXECUTIVE ROLES, CREATES COMMUNITY GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT TEAM • Ivy Greaner becomes architect of the visitor, resident and tenant experience as COO • John Costello to streamline development functions as CDO • Nadia Sesay to lead new Community Growth and Development team CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD HIGH RESOLUTION HEADSHOTS October 29, 2020 [DETROIT] – Bedrock is pleased to announce today the addition of three C-Suite leaders to help guide the 9-year-old Detroit-based real estate company into its next decade of visionary development. Ivy Greaner, Chief Operating Officer (COO), is to start Nov. 16., and John Costello, Chief Development Officer (CDO) will take on his new role beginning Monday, Nov. 2. Nadia Sesay will become Bedrock’s first Chief Community Growth and Development Officer starting Dec. 4. “Ivy, John and Nadia are the perfect additions to the talented team at Bedrock as we continue the important work of curating vibrant spaces and places, while working together to uplift the broader community,” said Kofi Bonner, Bedrock CEO. “Our programs and developments must represent and support the full diversity of Detroit and whenever possible encourage growing wealth and improving health outcomes, and I look forward to working with these leaders to better accomplish these imperative outcomes.” Greaner has nearly 30 years of experience as a real estate executive and investment leader of retail, commercial and multi-family projects in every region of the United States, from the Midwest, to the South to the West Coast. Most recently, she served as Executive Vice President and COO of Chicago-based InvenTrust Properties, a premier retail Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) that owns, leases, redevelops, acquires & manages open-air centers totalling 11 million square feet. In one of her prior roles, she was Partner and COO of Ram Realty Services in Detroit and was on the leadership team that developed the city’s first Whole Foods Market in Midtown. In Greaner’s new position as COO at Bedrock, she will be responsible for the day- to- day administrative and operational functions, ensuring a seamless experience for our visitors, residents, and tenants. Costello joins Bedrock from FivePoint Holdings (formerly Lennar Urban) where he served as Executive Vice President of Commercial for the last five years. Over the course of his 35-year, bi-coastal career in development, he has built upwards of 10,000 residential units and a total of some 21 million mixed-use, residential and commercial square feet across the United States. In his role as CDO at Bedrock, Costello is tasked with streamlining overall development functions across the enterprise at a pivotal moment for landmark projects like the Hudson’s Site and Book Tower, and as Bedrock makes its first foray into the industrial sector. In a brand-new role for Bedrock, as Chief Community Growth and Development Officer, Sesay will be leading a team focused on making meaningful connections between Bedrock’s expertise and the growing communities of Detroit and Cleveland. Sesay comes to Bedrock from the City of San Francisco’s Office of Community Investment and Infrastructure, where she served as Executive Director. In this role, she was responsible for the economic development of the new Transbay, Mission Bay and Hunters Point Shipyard neighborhoods, which collectively provide over 20,000 new housing units, including approximately 7,000 affordable housing units, 400 acres of parks and open space and 10 million square feet of commercial space. In addition to the above leadership additions, CEO Kofi Bonner has created a Strategy and Innovation Team comprised of four professionals charged with sourcing and incubating special projects and programs. ### About Bedrock Detroit-based Bedrock is a full-service real estate firm specializing in acquiring, developing, leasing, financing and managing commercial and residential buildings.

  • 8Th Grade Text Structure Lesson, Practice, and Answer Key (Study Island) 1
    8th Grade Text Structure Lesson, Practice, and Answer Key (Study Island) 1 ​Text Structure When you understand how the writer has organized information, you will understand and remember the text better. Writers organize text in several different ways. Cause/Effect The text shows that one event causes another thing to happen. Look for words like "because," "then," "since," and "as a result." Example: It rained for the first few days of the camping trip. As a result, most of the campers ​ were restless and wanted to go home. Comparison/Contrast The text shows how ideas or things are alike or different. Look for words like "best," "more," "better," "less," "worse," "easier," and "than." Example: The best time to visit the Rocky Mountains is early fall. The weather is cooler in the ​ fall than in the summer. You will see fewer people and more animals. The fall colors are more beautiful. Description When you want to paint a picture with words, use description to organize your ideas. To make the picture come alive in your reader's mind, use a lot of adjectives and describe what you would see, taste, smell, feel, or hear. Adjectives are words like "pretty," "sweet," "smooth," and "loud." Example: The cellar was cold, damp, and dark. It smelled musty and old. ​ Problem/Solution The text is split into two parts: One part presents a problem, and the other part gives the solution to the problem. Look for words like "problem," "solution," "solve," and "plan." Example: The city of Taylor has fifteen public swimming pools. In the past, plenty of lifeguards ​ have been available for staffing the pools throughout the summer.

  • Anisa Anisa Has Made a Lot of Progress at Playing the Recorder
    Anisa has made a lot of progress at playing the recorder during music. At the beginning of the school year, she really struggled to make a good sound on the recorder, as her fingers didn't cover the holes properly. However, her motor coordination has improved significantly and she is now able to play B, A, and G with clarity. In order to improve, Anisa needs to practice using her right hand to play low E and low D. I have been very pleased with Anisa's progress and I Anisa hope that she will choose to join the Recorder Club and pursue her music exams during Year 4. Bella has always enjoyed music lessons and she has done very well in Year 3. She quickly learned to play the recorder and is able to play lots of different pitches accurately. Bella has excellent listening skills, which has helped her to hear others while playing and to correct her own mistakes. Bella is learning two songs that she could play for a special music exam. I hope that Bella will join the Recorder Club during Year 4, as she will be able to make even more Bella progress on the recorder, and begin exams that will help to document her success. I look forward to what Bella can achieve in music as she gets older. Aymen has excellent musical abilities. Since he was in Year 1, Aymen has always enjoyed singing and playing instruments, and he is able to listen and copy simple rhythms accurately. His musical skills have benefitted him in Year 3, as he has learned to play the recorder.

  • Promissory Fraud Without Breach
    PROMISSORY FRAUD WITHOUT BREACH IAN AYRES* & GREGORY KLASS** INTRODUCTION It is no doubt wrong to conflate promise breaking and lying. What parent has not heard a child say with no small degree of indignation, "You lied to me; you promised you would .... " Accusations of this kind can be evidence of conceptual confusion: You might be a scoundrel for breaking your promise, but you are not thereby a liar- someone who knowingly misrepresents an existing fact. The act of promising to do, or to refrain from doing, something in the future does not, by itself, give the promisor even the opportunity to lie.' But the action for promissory fraud suggests that our impulse to call certain promise-breakers "liars" is often correct. Promising is a single act with multiple meanings. According to the literal meaning, the speaker of the words "I promise to . ." puts herself under a certain obligation-an obligation to do the act promised. In many contexts, however, a promise to do something also represents an intent to do it. And as Lord Bowen stated in an early promissory fraud case, "the state of a man's mind is as much a fact as the state of his digestion.",2 By saying something about the promisor's present intent, the act of promising creates the opportunity to lie. We call this category of falsehoods "promissory misrepresentations" or "insincere promises."' 3 The idea is a familiar one in literature and popular culture.
