Aarons, Philip H. Lovett and I set out to pioneer a new concept in urban mixed-use development. Our goal then was to figure out how we could assemble a complex, multifaceted mixed-use project that would start to draw residents back into the urban core of New York by creating vitality and excitement. Over the next 25 years, we brought that vision to other major urban areas including Boston, always trying to move growth in the direction established by each city’s elected officials and their representatives. Mr. Aarons came from the public sector, and he and I started together in real estate by developing affordable housing. Our company’s mission has always been to improve both the built environment and the human experience of living in major cities. While the baseline has significantly moved over the last 25 years, our mission remains the same: to further the advancement of the downtown urban cores of America’s gateway cities, working hand in hand with local government and the communities served.
