“We expect that Lincoln’s local market knowledge and on-the-ground operating expertise will be in strong demand from owners, investors, lenders, and tenants seeking to transform existing properties or develop new properties.”
Lincoln was founded in 1965 as an apartment developer before expanding into commercial real estate in the late 1970s. Today, the company manages 275M SF of real estate on behalf of third-party institutional clients. In recent years, it has acquired more than $22B of commercial projects, per the release.
