Grant Dickson Green III ’48

Body

Dick Green died May 22, 1998, at home in Princeton. He had been looking forward to our 50th.

Ever a loyal Princetonian and classmate, Dick was a regular at our monthly class lunches and other class functions. He was the university's director of real estate from 197078. Born in Syracuse and a graduate of Taft, he joined the class in July 1944. He served in the Navy during WWII with Atlantic Fleet destroyers.

His career in real estate spanned 45 years. He was senior v.p. of Landauer Associates in NYC from 197887 and was instrumental in the sales of the former Pan Am and General Motors buildings. He subsequently formed a private real estate consulting practice in Princeton before becoming a director for Resolution Trust Corp. He retired in 1993.

Dick served on the board of the Princeton Club of NY and was active in Princeton civic affairs. He was chairman of the Princeton Township board of zoning adjustment for many years and was a former director of Princeton Community Housing. He was active in local AA meetings and touched many lives.

To his widow, Marian, son Christopher, and daughter Sallie, the class extends its deepest sympathy and shares in the loss of a dear friend and loyal Princetonian.
