Patrick Robinson and Lindsay Ornstein are building their second NY brokerage operation together: Transwestern’s NY team. (We snapped Patrick in the company’s 400 Park Ave office with Kelsey Da Silva, Lauren Davidson, and Jordan Rosenlicht). The pair also built Staubach’s local office, and in their third year with Transwestern, are going after the low-hanging fruit of office tenant rep while building their property management biz (they've already snagged four MTA buildings, like its 2 Broadway office and the Jamaica Control Center) and landlord rep assignments.

Lauren and Lindsay (whose No. 3 is due Feb. 28 and whom we snapped with Andrew Hawkins, Vipasha Dasgupta, William Schweitzer, Palak Raval, Peter Schubert, Stephanie Pagan, and Mike Gochman) have taken over marketing for a 30k SF, four-floor retail sublease at 527 Madison and 54th, freshening up the marketing plan for space that previously sat on the market for two years despite its premier location. And Peter and Rick Rizutto have just gone to market on a mixed-use development site on a one-acre, full-city block on Brooklyn’s waterfront.
