Habitat Co. Expanding Beyond Chicago

CHICAGO—Matt Fiascone has just taken the helm at the Chicago developer, and tells GlobeSt.com that in 2015 it will explore opportunities in the inner suburbs and across the Midwest.

CHICAGO—The Habitat Co., a Chicago-based property manager and developer, has just promoted Matt Fiascone to president of the organization. For the past three years, Fiascone has been Habitat’s senior vice president of finance and investment. The company has become one of the most prominent multifamily developers in the city, but most of its work has been in the urban core, and Fiascone now tells GlobeSt.com that in 2015 this could begin to change.

“The strategy is to leverage our reputation and strong team and enter new markets and perhaps even launch new product types,” he says. The changes will be evolutionary rather than drastic. Habitat built its reputation by building multifamily high-rises in the city’s core, and Fiascone says that work will remain its “heart-and-soul.” But it could also start building mid-rises, perhaps out in other neighborhoods well-served by transit, inner-ring suburbs and other markets in the Midwest.
