McCourt Partners

What McCourt Partners does

McCourt Partners is a family-owned, full-service real estate development, investment, management, and lending firm headquartered in Los Angeles with a second office in New York City. The company traces its lineage to Frank McCourt's 1893 family construction business and The McCourt Company (founded 1977), and was relaunched in 2012 as a private investment platform with over $1 billion in permanent and third-party capital and an indefinite investment horizon. McCourt executes complex, large-scale projects across the entire development lifecycle—from feasibility and entitlements through design, construction, asset management, and disposition—and has planned, financed, and built more than 30 million square feet of office, hotel, residential, and mixed-use projects with cumulative value exceeding $30 billion.

The core offering comprises four integrated service lines: Development Services, Investment Management, Asset Management, and Lending (senior loans, mezzanine, preferred equity). Its current portfolio includes trophy mixed-use, office, and residential developments such as The Stage in London, 360 Tenth Avenue in New York (a one-million-square-foot LEED Platinum office tower), 1201 Brickell Bay Drive in Miami (a Norman Foster–designed luxury condominium tower), and Halo Vista, a $7 billion, 2,300-acre master-planned community in North Phoenix adjacent to TSMC. The firm is extending beyond traditional development into transit infrastructure through the LA ART zero-emission aerial gondola system and its Ariel Rapid Transit Technologies venture. It serves institutional investors, capital partners, developers, and government stakeholders through direct relationships and joint ventures rather than consumer-facing channels.

Direct peers

• Silverstein Properties: NYC-based developer with deep experience in commercial office towers and mixed-use projects. Multiple McCourt senior team members previously held roles at Silverstein, and the two firms pursue comparable trophy office and mixed-use opportunities in Manhattan.
• Mack Real Estate Group: Private real estate investment and development firm with which McCourt Partners is co-developing the $7B Halo Vista project. Comparable in size, structure, and focus on large-scale mixed-use development, with a similar patient-capital orientation and institutional capital partner network.
• Related Companies: Family-founded (Stephen Ross), full-service NYC-based real estate developer with a similar integrated platform spanning development, investment, and asset management. Directly comparable to McCourt Partners in scale, mixed-use focus, and gateway-city strategy (Hudson Yards is Related's marquee analogue to McCourt's 360 Tenth Avenue).
• Walton Street Capital: Private real estate investment firm focused on equity, debt, and development in the US and select international markets. Comparable in deploying permanent institutional capital toward mixed-use and large-scale development, with a similar balance-sheet lending orientation.

Broad incumbents

• Brookfield Properties: One of the largest global real estate developers and investors, with significant NYC and gateway-city exposure. Multiple McCourt executives (Patrick Rhodes, Robert Pears, Amy Arentowicz) came from Brookfield, making it a key talent feeder and a comparable broad incumbent in the same asset classes.
• Tishman Speyer: Globally diversified real estate owner, developer, and operator with a focus on office and mixed-use in gateway cities. Direct overlap with McCourt's NYC office and mixed-use strategy, though at meaningfully greater scale and with broader geographic reach.
• Hines: International real estate firm and a stated strategic partner of McCourt Partners. Comparable in its full-service, mixed-use, gateway-city focus, with broader geographic footprint and significantly larger AUM and pipeline.

Others

• Cain International: London-based real estate private equity and credit investor that is a stated financial partner of McCourt Partners. Adjacent rather than directly competitive, but highly comparable in strategy, capital sources, and gateway-city focus.

Regional players

• Caruso: LA-based, family-controlled real estate developer and operator known for trophy retail and mixed-use projects (The Grove, The Americana at Brand). Closest LA analog to McCourt Partners in scale, family ownership, and community-engagement emphasis.
• Vanke (China Vanke): One of China's largest real estate developers and a stated strategic partner of McCourt Partners in international projects. Provides a regional/international development comparison and a partner for future Asia-Pacific expansion given McCourt's patient-capital orientation.
