Recent success in the floating zone growth of single crystal Pb$_2$V$_3$O$_9$ will be highlighted. Pb$_2$V$_3$O$_9$ has been studied as part of the class of antiferromagnetic 1D spin 1/2 dimer compounds that are believed to be driven through a phase transition to a BEC state with applied magnetic field. Magnetic susceptibility and specific heat measurements will be discussed.
