On September 5th, Buckingham Properties suffered the loss of founder and CEO, Larry Glazer, alongside his wife, Jane, in a tragic plane accident. The events of that day were followed all over the world, but nowhere more closely than in the Buckingham conference room. The company continues to grieve as does the Glazer family, along with so many friends in the community. The firm wishes to express appreciation for the manner in which the community has responded to the loss. Buckingham Properties received an outpouring of support and assistance from local, state and national politicians, both during and after the tragic events. The firm is just as appreciative of the manner in which local press has written about both Larry and Jane in an effort to make sure that the community understands the incredibly generous and selfless people that they were and how much they cared about the community. Larry and Jane never stopped trying to make the world a better place. They did this genuinely and without asking for anything in return.
Larry Glazer built Buckingham Properties one brick at a time, over forty years. He taught himself how to take a building apart, and then how to put it back together to be stronger, more efficient and to last the test of time. Larry was forthright in his planning and made sure to build Buckingham Properties in just the same manner. Larry did this by creating multiple departments staffed with strong, experienced leaders responsible for establishing and managing each phase of the commercial real estate business, including development, property management, finance and leasing. Larry groomed three partners to help him lead Buckingham Properties; his sons Richard and Kenneth, and Daniel Goldstein, who previously served as Buckingham CFO for many years.

Buckingham Properties has been grieving privately since our tragic loss on Friday. We will need a period of time to continue to grieve as we get back to work. We are blessed to have long standing relationships with our partners, tenants, bankers and community leaders who have all reached out to us with friendship and support. We will soon be available to address the questions and concerns the community may have in regard to the successful completion of the many visible projects we are currently developing. Buckingham Properties, through its strong leadership team, is committed to fulfilling the legacy Larry Glazer began some forty years ago. We will do so one brick at a time in a manner that will continue to make our community, and Larry, proud. Tags:
