Tishman Speyer Properties was founded in 1978 by Robert V. Tishman and Jerry I. Speyer. It is headquartered at 45 Rockefeller Plaza in Manhattan’s Rockefeller Center. Since its founding the firm has grown into a global real estate developer and manager of office, retail and residential properties – its CEO notes about $65 billion of assets under management across 40 markets. In New York City the company’s residential portfolio spans large rental communities in neighborhoods like Downtown Brooklyn and Long Island City in Queens. These developments emphasize luxury urban living, with apartments often anchored by resort-style amenities: fitness centers, indoor and outdoor pools, spas and lounge areas, and even private parkland to enhance residents’ lifestyles.

Tishman Speyer’s scope extends beyond apartments to large-scale office, retail and mixed-use projects worldwide. The firm emphasizes high design and sustainable features in all its developments. Its philosophy of creating developments that enrich neighborhoods carries into its housing communities. For example, Jackson Park at 28-40 Jackson Avenue in Long Island City, Queens, is a three-tower rental complex built by Tishman Speyer; it includes an on-site five-story clubhouse with a spa, indoor and outdoor pools, a gym and sports courts, plus a private 1.6-acre park for residents. The project was completed to LEED Silver standards. Such complexes exemplify the company’s focus on amenity-rich, community-oriented urban living. Renters at any Tishman Speyer property can expect well-managed buildings with upscale finishes and extensive amenities – hallmarks of a firm with decades of development expertise.
