Larkin Hoffman's attorneys Bill Griffith and Adam Pabarcus recently moderated panel discussions during Bisnow’s Twin Cities State of the Market outlook event. Held earlier this month, the event featured insightful conversations with leaders in the Twin Cities real estate and development markets.
The first panel, moderated by Bill Griffith, included Pat Barrett, COO of Oppidan Investment Company; Tim Elam, Managing Director at Scannell Properties; and Barry Stoffel, Partner and Integrator at Gardner Builders. The four covered a range of topics including strategies for navigating the current market and some of the challenges to various asset classes including industrial space, data centers, and senior housing. Pat Barrett remarked optimistically, "Winds are shifting, and we're headed in the right direction," when discussing emerging trends in the Twin Cities.
Adam Pabarcus moderated the event's final panel which included Josh Brandsted, President of Greco Properties; Jay Bhakta, Managing Partner at JR Hospitality; and Angela Ledding, Head of Underwriting at PACE Sloan Group. The panel focused on the future prospects for the Twin Cities real estate market. "We're witnessing significant economic volatility, impacting every facet of property development and management," noted Adam. Discussions centered on the resurgence of office space demand as the city adapts post-COVID-19 lockdown, as well as identified avenues for future growth.
