Everything about Rubloff Company totally explained

Rubloff Company is one of the largest and oldest real estate companies in the U.S. city of Chicago. Established in 1930, the founder, Arthur Rubloff, is known as “the man who changed the face of Chicago.” His pioneering ideas were catalysts for developments that brought a new splendor to Chicago’s city skyline. He is credited with coining the nickname Magnificent Mile for the section of North Michigan Avenue that includes the corporate headquarters of Rubloff Residential Properties, in the "Mag Mile" building on 980 North Michigan Avenue. Arthur Rubloff was responsible for some of the most notable and successful real estate developments in Chicago, including Carl Sandburg Village, The Brunswick Building, the Greyhound Bus Terminal, and Evergreen Plaza Shopping Center. Rubloff was involved in hundreds of real estate deals during his career that helped to shape the city of Chicago. Arthur Rubloff died in 1986 at the age of 83. The company he built ultimately outlasted him and continued to grow.
   Rubloff grew rapidly in the 1970s and 1980s, establishing its presence in twelve metropolitan areas, including; Los Angeles, San Francisco, Washington D.C., Detroit, Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, Cincinnati and Cleveland. In 1993, Rubloff sold its commercial operations including Rubloff Development Group, Inc., and concentrated its efforts on tackling Chicago's residential sector. In 1996 Howard Weinstein and Tom Horwich became co-owners. Today, Rubloff operates out of seven different offices, covering areas including the North Shore, Lincoln Park, the Gold Coast, the South Loop and Harbor Country in Michigan. In 2006 Rubloff had gross revenues of $1.35 billion.
   Rubloff Residential Properties has always been regarded as an innovator in real estate marketing. For example, Rubloff was the first Chicago real estate firm to market properties via the World Wide Web in 1994, and its web site won a Webby Award in 2006 for its innovative design. Rubloff remains a privately held company and has a joint venture relationship with Wells Fargo Home Mortgage.
