Brad Korzen has developed a dynamic portfolio of resorts, hotels, multiple-family properties and commercial investments while guiding the diverse corporation behind its growth and operations. In just over a decade, Korzen has mined his unique understanding of contemporary financial and cultural climates to build, market and manage real estate assets that are both traditionally profitable and creatively progressive. Under his direction, the Kor Group has become a multi-faceted corporation with fully integrated acquisitions, development, construction, sales, marketing and management capabilities.
Recognized as a leading force on the contemporary hotel scene, Korzen is perhaps best known for his burgeoning collection of Southern California hospitality destinations, including award-winning hotels Viceroy Palm Springs and Viceroy Santa Monica, and Beverly Hills' famed Avalon and Maison 140. In 2005, he introduced the company's first international properties, Viceroy Anguilla and the Riviera Maya Resort.
Korzen has also acquired and developed a collection of multi-family properties throughout Southern California. Numbering 3,000 units, the portfolio includes Pegasus, an award-winning residential conversion of the landmark Standard Oil headquarters in downtown Los Angeles.
Most recently, Korzen has led the Kor Group's foray into loft condominium development in notable Los Angeles locations. Molino Street Lofts, a live-work compound in the emerging Arts District, sold out in just three months of pre-sales. Construction and pre-sales are now underway at the art deco treasure Eastern Columbia in downtown Los Angeles, the former Broadway department store at Hollywood and Vine, and an award-winning ground-up development in the popular Silver Lake district.
A Chicago native and graduate of the University of Illinois, Korzen holds a Juris Doctorate from University of Miami School of Law. |
