Previously, Mascia was vice president of dispositions, finance and investments at Opus Properties. He joined Opus, which is based in Minnetonka, MN, in 1997 as associate general counsel. Before that, he was a real estate and financial lawyer with Briggs and Morgan in St. Paul. He received his bachelors degree in history and philosophy as well as his juris doctor, magna cum laude, from Creighton University.
Mascia will oversee Duke's industrial leasing team of Phil Kluesner, vice president, and senior leasing representatives Jim Schlundt and Mark Youngquist, and the office leasing team of Darryle Henry, senior vice president and Norma Yaeger, senior leasing representative.
Mascia replaces Jim Gray, who left last fall to become the top manager of Harvard Real Estate Services at Harvard University in Cambridge, MA. Gray had been senior vice president and general manager of Duke's Minneapolis operations for about three years.
In addition to the seven million sf of office or industrial and commercial real estate, Duke controls more than 70 acres of undeveloped land in Minnesota and employs 61 real estate professionals.
