Baltimore Biz Journal launches blog/newsletter on real estate

Joanna Sullivan, the editor of the Baltimore Business Journal, writes about how the weekly business newspaper is starting a blog and a daily e-mail newsletter devoted to commercial real estate.

Sullivan writes, “That’s the reason the Baltimore Business Journal has always focused heavily on commercial real estate online and in print. It’s been our top beat — journalism lingo for the industry a reporter covers — since the Business Journal set up shop at 117 Water St. back in 1983.

“Like many businesses around town, we’ve moved since then. We’re now in one of Pratt Street’s hottest addresses — 1 E. Pratt St. It’s soon going to be the headquarters of PNC Bank’s local operations, bringing much-needed heft to this part of downtown.

“We broke that story about PNC, just one of hundreds of real estate stories we’ve broken over the years. And we’re not stopping there.

“But now we’re getting ready to take this beat well into the 21st century with the launch of our new free BBJ RE blog and daily newsletter. We’re branding all of our real estate products under the BBJ RE name. We look forward to many BBJ RE stories in print and online. And don’t miss our BBJ RE Broker Bash we have planned in the spring.

“The BBJ RE daily newsletter will make sure our loyal readers aren’t missing out on the important real estate news and market intelligence we’ve made our name on.”
