Faith Hope Consolo of Prudential Douglas Elliman’s Retail Group Joins Golden Networking's Real Estate Leaders Forum 2010
"Queen of Retail" reviews Current Distressed Real Estate landscape at June 17 conference at Flatotel in New York City
New York, NY, May 26, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Faith Hope Consolo, Chairman of Retail Group, Prudential Douglas Elliman Real Estate, and the most renowned retail broker and consultant in the country, not only for her knowledge, reputation, and taste, but also for her key role in revitalizing and sculpting retail corridors across the nation and beyond, will participate at Golden Networking's Real Estate Leaders Forum 2010, "Successfully Investing in Distressed Real Estate Assets" (http://www.RealEstateLeadersForum.com), being held from 1:30 pm to 7 pm on June 17th, 2010, Flatotel Hotel, 135 West 52nd Street in New York City.
Renowned for her ability to tailor customized, highly focused solutions on a client-by-client basis, Ms. Consolo oversees retail operations for the 50 Prudential commercial real estate offices (retail services divisions) nationwide. She has advised and encouraged many retailers as they emerged as major players and has helped transform lackluster neighborhoods into sought-after shopping districts. She is based in Manhattan but her reach is worldwide. She has mastered the art of securing leases in locations where companies will maximize their profits while enhancing the neighboring stores and retail landscape.
As Chairman of Prudential Douglas Elliman's Retail Group, a position created especially for her, she is responsible for providing comprehensive retail counsel to an array of tenants and landlords, both nationally and internationally. Since joining the firm in January 2005, she has completed numerous deals totaling multi-millions of dollars for some of the most recognized names in retail. Ms. Consolo stresses that successful retail brokerage is more than just site selection and negotiation; it is also an involvement in transforming communities and “telling America where to shop.” She possesses the ability to envision a smaller stretch of retail space and its potential relationship to the larger surrounding area. As the sole retail consultant to the Economic Development Corporation, she helped revitalize areas such as Times Square and Penn Station. She is recognized as a key player in Fifth Avenue's return as the "Luxury Walk" and Madison Avenue's achieving its glitter as the "Golden Mile." Ms. Consolo has brought many prominent retailers to Manhattan, including: Cartier, Versace, Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik, Giorgio Armani, Fendi, Kimaya, Yves Saint Laurent, Bruno Magli, Christian Louboutin, Fogal, Salvatore Ferragamo, Bond No. 9, Calypso, Fresh, Lockes, Miguelina, Niwaka, Paul Smith, Sermoneta, Tous, Wempe, Wolford, and Zara.
Faith Hope Consolo authors an online publication bearing her name, "The Faith Report." In addition, she is a regular contributor to The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, International Herald Tribune, Financial Times, Bloomberg, New York Post, Reuters, Associated Press, Crain’s New York Business, Luxury Briefing, Network News programs as well as CNN and NY1, Real Estate Weekly, New York Real Estate Journal, Real Estate New York, Real Estate Forum, Retail Traffic, Shopping Center Business, and Women’s Wear Daily among others.
Prudential Douglas Elliman awarded her the Top Retail and Commercial GCI, every year from 2005 through 2010. The national organization, Prudential Real Estate Affiliates, also awarded her the “Top Retail and Commercial Agent – GCI” five years in a row. In 1992, Crain's New York Business called her a Rising Star and in 1996, one of New York's 75 Most Influential Women in Business. Three years later, Crain’s named her one of New York's 100 Most Influential Women in Business, a distinction she earned again in 2007. In 1999, she was Woman of the Year by the Associated Builders and Owners of Greater New York, a first-ever for the trade association. In 2000, she received the AREW Founder's Award, the honor which she originated. Ms. Consolo received another AREW award, that of Outstanding Woman of Achievement, and is a Woman of Valor by the Capuchin Order of St. John the Baptist Friary. The non-profit organization Dress for Success honored Ms. Consolo with a Success at Its Best Award in 2005.
