NICHE OPPORTUNITIES EXPAND A&P's
CAPABILITIES
Bay Harbor Islands, FL, June 25 - Atlantic &
Pacific Management formally announced today the formation
of a new entity, Atlantic & Pacific Development led
by Alex Lastra. Lastra has over 12 years experience
in all facets of development, most recently with The
Related Group of Florida. During his tenure with high
profile companies, he gained a reputation for being
one of the most sought after, highly regarded developers
in South Florida. His demand for quality at every level
and his innovative problem solving made a winning combination
as he found niche opportunities in high growth markets.
Lastra's ability to adapt product design to infill locations
will be the catalyst for the next phase of A&P's expansion.
"We were very excited that Alex has joined our team.
With his vision and depth of experience, we can add
more creative and innovative solutions for the real
estate industry, not just here in Florida, but across
the country as well," says A&P's Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer, Howard D. Cohen. "We are seeing additional
opportunities in the areas of rehabilitation and market
segmentation such as the increased demand for affordable
housing, senior housing, as well as, student housing."
The strength of Atlantic & Pacific has always been and
will continue to be its ability to respond to market
demands through prudent business decisions, innovative
approaches, and assembling the best possible team of
professionals. Our company has demonstrated this by
the formation of CASH Collections and Innovative Management
Services, two newly created entities within Atlantic
& Pacific.
Prior to joining Atlantic & Pacific, Lastra dedicated
his time, talent and expertise to such companies as
The Carlisle Group, Housing Trust Group and The Lastra
Group, a family owned real estate development and construction
firm. He is a graduate of Florida International University's
School of Business with a specialization in Finance.
He has also been involved in Leadership Miami, a program
of the Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce.
