NAIOP Massachusetts was proud to support yesterday’s inaugural events welcoming Boston’s 54^th Mayor, Martin J. Walsh. The day was filled with inspirational speeches, musical performances and hope for the future.

During his inaugural address at Boston College, Mayor Walsh outlined his priorities including creating jobs, improving public safety, ending gun violence, and strengthening Boston’s schools.

NAIOP looks forward to working with Mayor Walsh and his team on the many issues affecting the commercial real estate industry and economic development overall. Among other things, NAIOP will provide input on the proposed changes to the Boston Redevelopment Authority, the need for more affordable and middle-income housing, and improved workforce training programs.

Congratulations Mayor Walsh!
