Daniel Rose (real estate developer)

[3][4] Rose developed the Pentagon City complex adjacent to Reagan Washington National Airport, the One Financial Center and Keystone Building office towers that anchored the redevelopment of Downtown Boston, and conceived and reinvented a New York City real estate apartment complex into Manhattan Plaza for the Performing Arts.

His award-winning essays and speeches have covered subjects as diverse as economics, inner city education, racial problems, social injustice, real estate, food and wine, and housing.

[12] Among other major projects, Daniel Rose led the development of Pentagon City in Arlington County, Virginia, adjacent to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, and 99 High Street and One Financial Center adjacent to South Station in Downtown Boston[11] as President of the firm, and became Chairman after the death of his brother, Frederick P. Rose in 1999.

As an institutional consultant, Rose was responsible for the creation and implementation of the innovative “housing for the performing arts” concept for New York's Manhattan Plaza.

[20] Rose is the co-founder and Chairman Emeritus of the Harlem Educational Activities Fund,[5][21] a highly acclaimed[6] initiative that has helped thousands of inner city youth enter college since 1989.

[11] He was a founding board member of the EastWest Institute[17] and was appointed by President Bill Clinton as Vice Chairman of the Baltic-American Enterprise Fund, a U.S.-government-funded organization that promotes free trade in Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia.

"[36] Covering subjects as diverse as economics, inner city education, racial problems, real estate, food & wine, and housing, his writings occasioned Fareed Zakaria's assessment that "Dan Rose has created a body of work that is philosophy at its most useful: how does one live a good life.[35]".

In addition to his own works, Rose contributed to "The Vintage Magazine Consumer Guide to Wine", and Henry Louis Gates Jr.'s "America Behind the Color Line: Dialogues with African Americans".
