Greater Buffalo BOMA honors commercial real estate industry professionals

Greater Buffalo Building Owners & Managers Association (BOMA) recently celebrated its annual FACES of BOMA Awards during a celebration luncheon at Templeton Landing. Nearly 80 BOMA members and colleagues attended to recognize the outstanding performance of its members and their support teams. The BOMA awards honor individuals and companies who exemplify outstanding leadership as well as a commitment to go beyond the expected standards of service and professionalism. "The FACES of BOMA awards represent both the companies that help grow the Buffalo region by developing or renovating commercial buildings and creating jobs, and also the individuals who excel in their jobs and contribute to the success of their companies," said Colby Smith, Greater Buffalo BOMA president. "This year we were proud to honor eight recipients. It's encouraging to see so many positive things happening in commercial real estate, even in these challenging times." Iskalo Development Company's 2410 North Forest building was named Real Estate Development of the Year. The building features timeless architecture, performance-enhancing features and a strategic location on John James Audubon Parkway.
