launched the site in September of 2010 in an attempt to offer premium quality as well as a completely free user interface which crossed several categories all in the same place.

HISTORY Todd Drowlette and Pat Gray were roommates at Siena College. After graduation, Todd began his career in Commercial Real Estate whereas Pat began with a Tech start up in Albany. During Todd’s career in Real Estate, it became evident that there was a need for a more cost-effective way of marketing and finding properties became evident. This sparked the idea for the website, which he brought in Pat for the technology side of the Business. The two brought in others and the site was launched a year later.

Reception: The website has received local recognition in the Albany, New York area due to its relationship with Siena College as well as the Siena student body. Move That Block currently has several interns from Siena which contribute to site operations, marketing as well as advertising. The site also sponsored the MOVETHATBLOCK.COM INDY 225 in New Hampshire. This gave the site a lot of exposure as well as attracted investors.
