Two Bright Power Women in NYREJ’s Spotlight on Women in Real Estate & Construction Services
March Spotlight: 2018 Women in Real Estate & Construction Services, NYREJ, March 20, 2018.
What was your most notable project 2017?
I’m incredibly proud to be working on MLK Plaza, an affordable housing development in the Bronx. Not only is Radson Development going above and beyond in making the property incredibly energy efficient, but they are also choosing sustainable, high quality materials that are aesthetically comparable to those in luxury buildings. It’s raising the bar in the quality of affordable housing projects. I think Dan Rad, principal of Radson Development, said it best at the groundbreaking, “This project demonstrates how low-income residents can also have access to a beautiful, modern, and stylish building that operates efficiently and sustainably.”

What was your most notable project 2017?
I designed and helped develop one of New York City’s first community solar projects for a residential Condominium or Cooperative building. Thanks to NY State’s commitment to Reforming the Energy Vision (REV), residents are able to see individual financial benefits of installing solar in their community or on their CoOp building. Through the new Community Distributed Generation program, the energy savings from the solar will go directly to individual shareholders, effectively reducing the disconnect between people and their energy source. The project is due to be installed over the summer and will be a model for future projects in NYC.
