lic partnership Annual Real Estate Breakfast UPCOMING The Long Island City community is sizzling, and it is only the beginning. The LIC Partnership hosted its annual Real Estate Breakfast on April 23, where a group of panelists discussed the recent developments and market trends taking place in the western Queens neighborhood’s increasing real estate market. This year’s breakfast, held at The Learning Center at Con Edison, was moderated by David Brause, president of Brause Realty Inc. Panelists included Arvind K. Bajaj, managing director of Madison Marquette; Erhan Bahceci, owner of Food Cellar & Co. Market; Cathy Dove, vice president for Cornell NYC Tech; Amanda Fung, senior news producer for Crain’s New York Business; and Rachel Loeb, director of development for World-Wide Group. Subjects during the breakfast included developments in residential and commercial real estate, as panelists discussed up and coming projects, such as the multiple apartment buildings going up and the Cornell NYC Tech campus moving to Roosevelt Island. Even with the real estate market already booming, Elizabeth Lusskin, president of the LIC Partnership believes this success is only the beginning and the community needs to work together to guide the growth without hindering it. “We’ve just sort of opened the gates,” Lusskin said. “It is all still on the edge of the horizon and there is so much more that’s going to happen. LIC has grown very organically and there’s still room for good surprises.” PHOTOS BY SAI MOKHTARI PHOTOS BY SAI MOKHTARI LIC PARTNERSHIP MAY 2014
