The Dallas Business Journal presented Cushman & Wakefield of Texas, Inc. brokers with three
major awards during its annual Best Real Estate Deals award dinner on February
28th. In all, seven Cushman & Wakefield brokerage professionals were
finalists for Best Real Estate Deals awards in a variety of categories.
Included in the honors bestowed upon Cushman & Wakefield was the evening’s top award,
the Jerry Fults Memorial Award, given to the overall Best Real Estate Deal in the Dallas-Fort
Worth area during 2007. Comerica Bank’s relocation from Detroit to Dallas, bringing

Dowell and Tracy Fults, of Cushman & Wakefield, represented the building owner,
Metropolitan Real Estate Investors, LLC in the transaction. Mr. Fults is the son of Jerry
Fults, the award’s namesake, a highly respected Dallas real estate veteran who died
unexpectedly in 2004. The transaction was also selected as winner of the Best
Headquarters or Corporate Campus Move.
Capital One’s corporate campus expansion to Legacy Business Park in Plano, Texas, was
selected as winner of the Best Office Deal for Newly Developed Space. Bill McClung and
