Reveler Development founder Tom Watson has authored a memoir about the early, difficult and dirty — some might add crazy — days of renovating Portland apartment buildings in the 1990s, when much of the city was more gritty than pretty.
In his debut book, “Your Turn,” Watson shares the humor in the calamitous. He tells his tale in a series of short vignettes, with chapters entitled: “Rats and Worms,” “Stink Pipe Gladiators,” “Nobody Move and Nobody Gets Hurt” and “Barf Bag.”
Today, Reveler is led by John Laliberte, president and CEO, and Michael Barton, vice president of development.
The company has built numerous multifamily and mixed-use projects in greater Portland, including the Levee and the Eddy in Biddeford, and the Armature in Portland’s Bayside neighborhood.
