Tannenbaum Completes New York City Advisory Assignment
Richard Tannenbaum, CRE, principal, Real Estate, E.L.K. Capital Advisors, LLC, Northbrook, Illinois, recently completed a portfolio advisory assignment with the acquisition and financing of a commercial condominium in New York City. On behalf of a client, Tannenbaum developed a strategy to stabilize a portfolio of older properties with substantial vacancy, managed the sale of the properties at attractive cap rates and the reinvestment of sale proceeds into the new acquisition. The net result was a tax-efficient transfer of private capital into a new fully leased property with credit tenancy while simultaneously replicating the previous portfolio cash flow. - Richard Tannenbaum, CRE
 
O’Keefe Featured in Real Estate Bisnow
Raymond T. O’Keefe, Jr., CRE, principal, New York City, recently was featured in Real Estate Bisnow commenting on New York City development. O’Keefe, who managed FiDi for Cushman & Wakefield and Edward S. Gordon and also was New York president for Grubb & Ellis, said “…downtown always comes back from the brink, but this revival is different. There’s more substantial residential and retail growth. CEOs no longer live only in New Jersey, Long Island and Connecticut. Many now prefer Tribeca, SoHo, Greenwich Village, and the Upper East Side, connecting the dots from downtown northward. - Raymond O'Keefe, CRE
