Downtown Salt Lake City honors Vasilios Priskos, the late real-estate maven and booster of Utah’s urban core

As a one-of-a-kind booster of downtown Salt Lake City, the late real-estate executive Vasilios Priskos should not just get awards posthumously, supporters said. He should have awards named after him.

Priskos died last October at age 53, after a long fight with cancer — leaving a big gap in Utah’s commercial real estate community and especially the dynamic world of downtown development.

Now, as the city marks its first Downtown Week, the affable and well-known businessman, mentor, family man, entrepreneur, urban landowner, developer and founder of real estate firm InterNet Properties has been memorialized with a series of honors.
