The company has amassed a portfolio covering 11 states that includes properties such as the Parkchester residential complex in New York City, the Hilton Marco Island Beach Resort and Spa in Florida, The Akers Mill Square shopping center in Atlanta, and 575 Lexington Avenue in midtown Manhattan.  It acts as General Partner of the Longview and RCG Longview series of debt and equity funds as well as Normandy Venture Partners, a series of opportunistic equity funds. 

"As we grow our company by adding to our footprint throughout the country it is becoming clear that we needed a new name that expresses the diversity of our portfolio and of our capabilities," explained CEO Andrea Olshan.  "Years of running our business with prudence and integrity have given us a superior market reputation, and we believe Olshan Properties communicates this and will resonate with all of our current and future private and institutional partners."

Added Ms. Olshan, "As we begin 2014, our entire team, and our Board are very excited to further advance our core mission of building value together under one brand."
