For Full Members Only: More Tours and Dine-Arounds
For full members attending the Fall Meeting, there is a no-charge tour of Hudson Yards, the single largest private real estate development in the history of the United States. Members will hear plans for the 28-acre (11 ha), 17 million-square-foot (1.6 million sq m) mixed-use development that is being built over active rail yards and will tour the site with project executives from Related Companies and Oxford Properties Group. Space is limited, so please register in advance.
Also, full members can join ULI leaders for an intimate conversation about the state of the industry, ULI’s priorities, and the latest in real estate trends at one of several planned Dine-Arounds.
