NEW YORK CITY — Steadfast Financial LP has signed a 21,640-square-foot office lease renewal in Midtown Manhattan. The investment advisory firm will continue to occupy the entire 20th and 21st floors at 450 Park Avenue, a 33-story building that was originally constructed in 1972.

The number of underutilized office buildings being converted into apartment units continues to steadily rise, largely due to the acceptance that the post-COVID hybrid work format is here to stay. At the start of 2026, the national office-to-apartment conversion pipeline reached 90,300 units, up 28 percent year over year and nearly four times larger than in 2022, according to RentCafe, a sister company of Yardi Matrix. Office conversions now account for almost half (47 percent) of all planned adaptive reuse projects nationwide (roughly 90,300 apartments out of 193,900 planned projects). Behind New York City and Washington, D.C., Chicago ranks third on the list for the largest office-to-apartment conversions pipeline, according to RentCafe. Cleveland and Cincinnati round out the top 10. Five other Midwest markets — Detroit, Minneapolis, Kansas City, Milwaukee and St. Louis — are included in the top 20. These cities are deploying combinations of tax-increment financing (TIF), local tax abatements, Housing Trust Fund dollars and historic tax credits to support office conversions in their downtown districts, says Al Fiesel, commercial business unit leader at Chicago-based LJC Design & Engineering. “The specific tools differ by market, but the underlying premise recognizes that public participation is the mechanism that makes …
By Garrett Karam, chief investment officer, EMBREY The Texas Stock Exchange (TXSE) represents the most serious attempt in 55 years to challenge the NYSE-Nasdaq duopoly and signals something that has not happened in generations: New York City’s monopoly on exchange infrastructure now has a credible challenger. As the TXSE prepares to launch in phases through 2026, EMBREY, a San Antonio-based investment and development firm, shares insights on how the exchange could further reinforce Dallas-Fort Worth’s (DFW) emergence as one of the country’s most important financial and economic centers. We also consider the direct implications for long-term economic growth and multifamily demand correlated to the launch of TXSE. Announced in 2024 and approved by the SEC in 2025, the TXSE has already raised more than $270 million from institutions including BlackRock, Citadel Securities, J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Bank of America and Charles Schwab. The exchange’s pitch to public companies centers around lower listing costs, fewer prescriptive requirements and a governance framework designed for operators. Combined with the state’s broader efforts to position itself as an increasingly attractive destination for business and corporate investment, the TXSE reinforces a larger shift already underway across North Texas. The exchange arrives at a time in …
