At the end of last month, the New York Time / International Herald Tribune quietly killed their international property blog "Raising the Roof," penned by Kevin Brass.
A casualty of the faltering newspaper industry I suppose, it is a real shame as it offered a unique and valuable view of the market happenings around the world.
If you've attended our past Leaders in Luxury events, you probably know Kevin. He's been a favorite speaker for a number of years. Of course if you've read about real estate in International Herald Tribune, The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, People, NWA World Traveler or bunch of other publications, you've probably read his stories and features.
I hope you'll take a minute to go to Raising the Roof and give Kevin a quick thank you by posting a brief comment or even asking The Times to bring him back! We'll miss his blog...
UPDATE:
It looks like they have stopped processing comments to the blog, so a quick note to the PUBLIC EDITOR, who represents the readers might be in order.
