MSRE Student's First Residential Development Wins National Design Award

A residential development project created entirely by current MSRE student Greg Drobot and his father, Michael, was recently awarded Multi-Housing News' Design Excellence Awards in the low-rise category. The Colony at Bandon Cove was the first development project for Greg and his father — both of whom had limited experience in the real estate industry prior to this project. The development, located in the coastal town of Bandon, Ore., is an 18-unit upscale community that won the award based on the criteria of: overall composition, functionality, aesthetics, special attributes and sustainable elements. In addition to managing the entire development process, Greg also served as the on-site construction supervisor and owner's representative.
