Often times people will think I’m ridiculous to try keep doing something but I've always felt that I should hang in there with it and prove it, that it can be done, and that’s the legacy that I might want to leave. If it’s the right thing to do, don’t quit on it.” -Joe Corcoran CJ Development Since 1971, Corcoran Jennison has completed numerous successful real estate development projects.
