The Real Estate Board of New York’s Board of Governors have voted to approve William C. Rudin to succeed Rob Speyer as REBNY Chairman. Speyer’s term ends in December 2017. Rudin is the CEO and Co-Chairman of Rudin Management Company and oversees the Rudin real estate portfolio of 16 office towers comprising more than ten million square feet of New York city Class A office space and 20 luxury apartment buildings. Rudin will promote policies that will continue diversifying the city’s economy in order to generate jobs and bring renewed vitality to New York City’s businesses and its commercial and residential real estate marketplace. A REBNY member for 30 years, Rudin has been on its executive committee since 1991 and served as a member of the Board of Governors since 1987.
“This is a tremendous honor and responsibility, and I look forward to working with REBNY to represent the real estate industry in New York City,” said Bill Rudin. “Service to our city and industry is paramount to me and my family, and taking on this role next year is a natural extension of that dedication.”
