RMK Management Corp. “Branching Out” for Earth Day


Anthony Rossi Sr.
CHICAGO, IL,  April 20, 2015 – In celebration of Earth Day this year, Chicago-based RMK Management Corp. is planting 10 six-foot Autumn Blaze maple trees throughout several of its Chicago-area communities.

“As a company, we are dedicated to reducing our impact on the environment, and we take steps each year to improve our eco footprint,” said Anthony Rossi, Sr., president of RMK Management Corp.

 “From overseeing the management of several LEED-certified buildings to upgrading properties with fixtures to reduce energy and water consumption to providing our residents with ways to live greener each day, we are committed to increasing our eco-friendly initiatives.”

According to the Arbor Day Foundation, trees provide numerous environmental benefits including reducing carbon dioxide and increasing oxygen, reducing water runoff and erosion, providing habitat for native birds and other species, and reducing the “heat island” effect.

“Surveys show how important environmentally-friendly features are to renters, and this is a tangible way to both improve the environment and add value to the properties,” noted Rossi.

MK is working with Clarence Davids and Co. landscaping to plant the trees at The Residences of the Grove in Downers Grove; Bristol Station in Naperville; Alara at Summerfield and Butterfield Oaks in Aurora; Versailles on the Lakes and Regency Place in Oakbrook Terrace; Legacy at Martin’s Point in Lombard; Legacy at Poplar Creek in Schaumburg; Williams Reserve in Palatine; and Parc Huron in Chicago.
