Thru the lens: Academy for Continuing Education

Queen of retail, Faith Hope Consolo, chairman of Douglas Elliman's Retail Group, informed a virtual kingdom of New York's leading brokers and agents about retail trends and emerging neighborhoods during her seminar for the Academy for Continuing Education (ACE). Along with Esther Muller, ACE's co-founder and master teacher, the two long-time educators and real estate pros reminisced about their history together as colleagues and took a final moment to reflect on the passing of beloved daily news reporter and friend Jason Sheftell at the session, which was held in the president's room of the New York Athletic Club.
