ULI Houston honors the memory of Ted Nelson, a leader who not only shaped communities that raised the bar for excellence, and frequently led the nation in sales, but who also touched our lives as a mentor, role model, and friend. Although Ted’s quiet, unassuming manner might not have fit the stereotype of a tremendously successful real estate developer–which by every measure he was–his expertise was widely acknowledged across the industry.
Ted’s early career with The Woodlands set the trajectory for a distinguished 40-year career of commitment to the Urban Land Institute’s tenets and best practices in the responsible use of land. We can only imagine the thousands of lives that have been positively impacted by Ted’s leadership and his long-term vision for sustainable community development, whether as residents in one of the exemplary communities he developed, or the professionals whose careers he guided.
We are grateful to have known Ted Nelson and extend our heartfelt condolences to his dear friends, family and close colleagues.
