Berkeley Group’s legendary chairman Tony Pidgley was last night named Personality of the Year at Property Week’s inaugural RESI Awards.

Pidgley, 64, was rewarded for a year in which he bought One Blackfriars Road out of administration for £77.4m and started development of London’s tallest residential tower, 1 St George Wharf.

Another big winner on the night was Native Land, which picked up two awards for developer of the year (under 1,000 units) and development of the year for Neo Bankside which it developed alongside Grosvenor.

Other big awards went to Residential Land for Private Landlord of the Year (over 1,000 units), Places for People for Registered/Social Landlord of the Year (over 1,000 units) and Delancey and Qatari Diar for Deal of the Year.

The sell-out event, the headline sponsor of which was Residential Land, saw more than 500 members of the residential property community attending the Intercontinental Park Lane hotel in London for the evening.

Guests were entertained by the evening’s host, sports presenter Clare Balding, over dinner. You can view pictures of the night and all the winners by clicking here.
