Principal,
Grid Properties Inc.
“Thoughtful architectural and urban design solutions will continue play a greater and greater role in the success of a project. Well conceived pedestrian friendly, mass transit oriented facilities will be more desired. Design also plays an important role in providing for the flexibility to accommodate varied and evolving tenant needs. Good design also minimizes operational cost exposures and security concerns.”  View Profile
   
“Urban Strategic Investments is uniquely positioned to capitalize on the current investment opportunities afforded by the growing popularity of dense urban markets."
 
Steven Sterneck
Chief Investment Officer,
Grid Properties Inc.
“Urban Strategic Investments targets retail acquisition and development opportunities in underserved urban locations. We will look at new construction on either privately or publicly-owned parcels; existing buildings; and the repositioning of existing enclosed malls, strip centers, urban infill sites and retail condominiums.”  View Profile
   
“At a time when land values are becoming more attractive, securing new development sites, given the length of the development cycle, will also create strong long term value.”
 
Jim Tuman
Chief Development Officer,
Grid Properties Inc.
“Working closely with community based organizations has become an essential component of the planning and devel-
opment process and our track record in delivering on promises related to local hiring and small business participation has given us a competitive advantage when pursuing development opportunities.”

“The repositioning and redevelopment of existing assets may be less expensive than building from the ground up in the short term.”
 
Scott Auster
Managing Director,
Grid Properties Inc.
“The current economic environment has reinforced the basic premise that unmet demand fuels retail development. Well located projects in high barrier to entry markets with strong demand are good long term investments, and there are many dense urban areas that fit those criteria.”  View Profile
   
“We embrace strategic partnerships with the investment community, regional and local municipalities and other entities that share our vision for enhancing real estate value through development in underserved markets.”
