“Building on the acquisitions we made last year and recent ground up development for our Tishman Select Partners affiliate, we want to continue to grow this asset class within our portfolio,” said Obaid Khan, Chief Financial Officer of Tishman. “We see value in various markets and a tremendous amount of potential growth in this sector, and we think that the best way to sharpen our focus is by bringing someone with Mike’s expertise and experience on board.”
