Moderator


Brad Cohen is a Senior Vice President at CBRE’s Midtown
office specializing in landlord and tenant advisory services
throughout New York City, with a focus on both retail and
industrial and the intersection of these two sectors. Brad joined CBRE in 2018 from Eastern Consolidated where he and his team built a successful practice that focused primarily on serving occupiers and owners in New York City’s outer boroughs. Cohen has since expanded his team throughout the region, into parts of Rockland County, Westchester County and Long Island.
With the continual interdependence between retail and industrial in recent years, and his understanding of bricks and mortar retail and supply chain demands, Brad has applied his experience within these areas into new real estate categories dubbed ‘flex-industrial’ and ‘flex-retail’. Through this intersection, Brad has identified opportunities for experiential, athletic entertainment and omni channel clients and positioned properties for new end user exposure. Transactions within these flex categories include: 233 Nevins Street in Gowanus, Brooklyn, where he was instrumental in signing The Cliffs, an indoor rock-climbing chain, Court16 Tennis Academy in Lower Manhattan, where their client, will open its first New York location and Zerospace Studios, an event and production studio opened earlier this year in Gowanus, Brooklyn.
While primarily focused on leasing activities, Brad’s team and relationships are responsible for the recent sales on behalf of its clients, including One Bulova Avenue in Queens, NY, which his team successfully leased to Amazon, the sale of 1500 Basset Avenue in the Bronx, NY to Realterm Logistics, leased to Amazon, Bradley Industrial Park, which was the largest industrial sale in Rockland County, Sunset Industrial Park built to suit (confidential client).
An industry expert, Mr. Cohen has been interviewed by the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, the Commercial Observer, and other publications, and is frequently invited to speak on panels at industry events.
