The Rev. Dr. James H. Cooper, rector of Trinity Church, and Carl Weisbrod, President of Trinity’s real estate division, have named Emily Lloyd as Chief Operating Officer of Trinity Real Estate effective December 1, 2008.

Ms Lloyd has served as NYC Commissioner of Environmental Protection in the Bloomberg administration since 2005. She is currently a member of Trinity’s vestry, where she has served since 2003. Ms. Lloyd will manage the internal business operations of the portfolio with oversight of leasing, administration, business planning, property management and design and construction.

Trinity’s real estate holdings in Lower Manhattan total approximately six million square feet and are based primarily in the Hudson Square area west of SoHo and south of Greenwich Village. Trinity ranks among the largest commercial property owner managers in New York City.

“Emily Lloyd is an outstanding and valued member of Trinity’s vestry,” noted Dr. Cooper, “offering to us a breadth of knowledge of the city and a deep commitment to the mission of Trinity Church.”

Ms. Lloyd brings to Trinity notable experience in operations and strategic management. As Chief Executive of the NYC Department of Environmental Protection, Ms. Lloyd managed an agency of more than 6,000 staff with an operating budget of nearly $880M.

She also served as Commissioner of the New York City Department of Sanitation and Director of the Office of Business Development for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.

“Having served on the vestry of Trinity Church for the past six years, I’ve come to know and deeply appreciate Trinity’s unique historical contribution to the economic, civic and spiritual life of this great city”, said Ms. Lloyd. “I look forward to working with Dr. Cooper, Carl Weisbrod and the Trinity team on transforming the Hudson Square area and furthering the revitalization of Lower Manhattan.

Ms. Lloyd is a graduate of Wellesley College and holds a Masters of City Planning from the University of Pennsylvania. She also received a Loeb Fellowship in Environmental Studies from Harvard University.

Trinity’s real estate portfolio results from a land grant made to the parish by Queen Anne of England in 1705. Today, the parish retains approximately eight percent of that original land grant, known as the Queen’s Farm, with the current property located between Sixth Avenue, the Hudson River, and Canal and Morton Streets.
