The company has approximately 300 employees, including a team of property-repositioning and redevelopment experts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-focusing-on-premier-real-estate-opportunities\">Focusing on premier real estate opportunities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Rather than targeting specific DMA\u2019s, Livingston said Centennial focuses on identifying premier retail real estate opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur approach considers location, competition, existing entitlements, opportunities for densification and demographics, among other things,\u201d she said. \u201cOur strategic, value-driven methodology begins with a careful asset selection process, ensuring we invest in properties that align with our vision of creating community-centric destinations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Richard Rizika, partner &amp; co-founder of Beta Retail, mentioned that this move marks Lincoln&#8217;s strategic expansion into retail, as the firm has historically focused on office, industrial and residential assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This acquisition could also lead to a more integrated approach to property management by blending retail with residential and office spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt also underscores the potential for increased investment and revitalization of retail assets, in response to the evolving needs of consumers and the way consumers live, work and play,\u201d Rizika added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The duo looks to transform large-format retail into mixed-use destinations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3568,"featured_media":1004679564,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21783,23891,21742,21749],"tags":[46757,32838],"class_list":["post-1004725349","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-investment","category-national","category-latest","category-retail","tag-centennial-real-estate-company","tag-lincoln-property-company"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
