HOGAN TO BE RECOGNIZED FOR REAL ESTATE WORK

Hunter A. Hogan Jr., nationally known for his work in commercial real estate, will be recognized this evening in Richmond with the creation of a Hunter Hogan Award of Excellence.

Beginning in April 1996, the Virginia Chapter of the International Council of Shopping Centers will present the award annually to an individual who characterizes professional excellence and ethics in commercial real estate.

The award will be made in conjunction with an annual contribution to the Hunter A. Hogan Scholarship Fund at Old Dominion University.

The scholarship fund, established in 1986, assists ODU students enrolled in the university's real estate program, and who have strong academic records and have demonstrated a need for financial help.

Hogan, an 83-year-old native of Norfolk, began his career in 1934 collecting rents in Norfolk tenements. He served in the Navy during World War II.

Hogan joined Robert C. Goodman and Baron Segar in 1946 to form Goodman-Segar-Hogan Inc.When he became chairman of the company at the end of 1974, it was one of the largest commercial real estate concerns in Virginia. The Norfolk-based company now operates under the name Goodman Segar Hogan Hoffler.

Hogan retired from the Goodman-Segar-Hogan in 1986 and set up a commercial real estate brokerage and consulting firm in Norfolk, which he continues to run.

Hogan, who was named Virginia Realtor of the Year in 1964, served two terms as president of the Urban Land Institute in the mid-1970s and remains a trustee of the real estate-research organization.

Also, he has been heavily involved in civic endeavors and economic development programs in the region. Last year the Norfolk Cosmopolitan Club presented Hogan with its First Citizen award for his contributions to the community.

Joshua P. Darden Jr., former owner of a group of auto dealerships, and former Gov. Mills Godwin, will assist in tonight's recognition program at the Commonwealth Club. Rick Burnell, president of Goodman Segar Hogan Hoffler, will be master of ceremonies. ILLUSTRATION: Color photo
