As a child my favorite game to play with my Grandfather was Monopoly. Much to my Grandmother's chagrin, our games would take up messy residence on the table for weeks on end. Every time bankruptcy seemed imminent and the table would surely be cleaned once and for all, Grandpa assigned a bank note until I could catch up. As you might have already guessed, I never lost.

Many years later during a commercial real estate transaction, my grandfather asked me what type of mortgage I was getting. When I told him, he just shook his head as if I had lost my mind. I couldn't resist adding with a playful smile, "Remember all of our games of Monopoly, and how you taught me to go to the bank when I needed money?" He may argue that those were not the only lessons he intended to teach.

My Grandfather is a very important person in my life, and I will always treasure our time together as I was growing up. For this reason, I decided to name this building "The Stanley Center" after a great man with many important life lessons to teach.
