Greenberg Glusker Real Estate Partner, Craig Coan, will moderate the panel "Placemaking & Experience-Driven Real Estate" at Bisnow's Southern California Hospitality & Retail Commercial Real Estate Summit on February 26, 2026. The panel will discuss driving value through lifestyle, community, and culture.

Craig Coan applies entrepreneurial insight to create value in real estate deals for his varied, nationwide clients, including developers, family office, shopping center owners, private equity portfolio companies, restaurateurs, and REITs. Craig's career trajectory has been particularly distinguished by his practical approach and entrepreneurial empathy. After practicing law in his twenties, Craig was a market maker on the floor of the Chicago Board Options Exchange for 15 years, a role that required him to make numerous high-stakes decisions daily. A former CPA with a Big Eight accounting firm, Craig approaches each matter as if his own money is at stake, often applying his accounting and tax skills in the process. That holistic approach applies across a broad spectrum of real estate transactions in which Craig boasts significant experience: acquiring and disposing of distressed assets; office, retail, and industrial leasing on behalf of landlords and tenants; handling development matters; representing borrowers in financing transactions; and overseeing tax-free exchanges.
