About Us
Towne History
As told by Neil Bortz, Founder and Chairman
"In my second year at Harvard Business School, I was planning to return to Procter & Gamble's Advertising (Marketing) Department, where I had worked for eight months before going to business school. With that in mind, I bought a fixer-upper on Mt. Adams, then a declining neighborhood, which I nevertheless found charming, with the intention of "fixing" it up and walking to work.”
