17th RED Awards: New York’s Residential Real Estate Gala at Club 101
The 17th RED Awards takes place October 28, 2026, 7–10:30 p.m. at Club 101 in New York, hosted by Bob Knakal. Official artwork and registration details.
New York’s residential real-estate industry has an awards night on its October calendar. The 17th RED Awards takes place on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, from 7 to 10:30 p.m. at Club 101, 101 Park Avenue, bringing recognition and professional networking into the same evening.
The 2026 Residential Awards is presented by RED Awards, whose name stands for Real Estate Development. The organizer describes an audience spanning developers, owners, investors, brokers, architects, designers, lenders and industry executives. The focus is the people and businesses working across residential real estate.
Bob Knakal hosts the evening
The announced host is Bob Knakal, chairman and CEO of BK Real Estate Advisors. Knakal co-founded Massey Knakal Realty Services and later held senior investment-sales roles at Cushman & Wakefield and JLL before launching BKREA in 2024. His career has centered on New York property sales and advisory work, making his role as host a direct connection to the industry the awards recognizes.
The gala’s interest extends beyond the presentation of awards. Residential development involves a network of disciplines, from acquiring and financing sites to architecture, construction and sales. An evening drawing those professions together offers a setting for conversations across that network. The organizer’s emphasis is on recognition and making professional connections.
October 28 at Club 101
The event runs from 7–10:30 p.m. Eastern at Club 101, 101 Park Avenue, New York City. The official 2026 artwork places the Residential Awards on October 28 and advertises general admission at $895 and a table for ten at $8,700. These are the advertised prices on the poster; consult the organizer’s checkout for current availability, fees and final terms.
