Brent Tredway, president of the brokerage division at CRC, highlighted the significance of Colosimo’s appointment, saying: “CRC has always had a strong casualty team in New York led by Fred Curatolo. The addition of Vince will help us ensure we continue to build on Manhattan’s success for many years to come.

“We are adding talent nationwide. We welcomed a record number of new producers to CRC last year, and we are off to a very strong start in 2024.”

Lauding his successor’s track record and the depth of his industry relationships, Curatolo said in an emailed release: “As an elite construction specialist, Vince’s industry relationships and expertise make him a fantastic addition to our office and a resource for all of CRC Group’s construction-focused teams.

“Vince couldn’t be a better fit, and I’m excited to have him working alongside us as we continue to expand our presence in New York and in the construction space nationally.”
