NEW YORK CITY-The city is “not done thinking big or building big,” Mayor Michael Bloomberg said Thursday at the New York Building Congress’ Leadership Awards luncheon. In celebration of the Building Congress’ 90-year legacy of service to the five boroughs, the organization gave special recognition to the city’s best and brightest in the public and private sectors on Thursday. Among the honorees were Burton Resnick, chairman and CEO of Jack Resnick & Sons, Inc.; City Council Speaker Christine Quinn; and New York University president John Sexton, welcomed by Richard T. Anderson, president of the Building Congress.

The luncheon, which generated $700,000 for the Building Congress, also featured special guests Eric Rudin, vice chairman and president of Rudin Management Co. and John M. Dionisio, president and CEO of AECOM. The afternoon’s highest honor was awarded to Resnick, who has served Jack Resnick & Sons since 1956. He is the fourth recipient of the NYBC’s annual Jack and Lewis Rudin Award to New York City.
