NEW YORK CITY—Tiger Capital Group has relocated its New York office and formally designated the new site as its first corporate headquarters.
The international asset valuation, advisory and disposition firm moved to 99 Park Ave. from 708 Third Ave., where it had operated for five years. In addition to New York, Tiger has major offices in Boston and Los Angeles, a business development office in San Francisco and, through Australian co-venture Tiger Asset Group, a location in Sydney.
Tiger was represented by Richard Gottlieb of Coldwell Banker Commercial Alliance. The building was represented by Jeffrey Peck, executive managing director, Savills Studley.
Like many companies with multiple locations, Tiger had been operating without a formal headquarters. The move to establish New York as its flagship office comes at a time when Tiger is embarking on a growth plan aimed at doubling the company's size within five years.
“Given our strong ties to the international financial community, New York was the logical choice for our first corporate headquarters,” says Daniel Kane, principal and managing member, who co-founded the firm in 2001.
Tiger COO Michael McGrail, who had been based in Boston, will now divide his time between the New York and Boston offices. McGrail joins a New York team that includes such senior Tiger executives as longtime office leader Jack Rapp, executive managing director; Melissa Coopersmith, managing director, national sales; Andy Babcock, director of inventory strategies; Fred Raccosta, director of business development for New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania; and Robert Kowal, director of wholesale liquidations.
“We see a lot of our growth emanating from this market,” McGrail says, "whether it be asset appraisals on behalf of banks and other secured lenders; advisory work for private equity firms, investment banks, and hedge funds; co-ventures with the financial community on debt capital opportunities; or asset dispositions involving retail, wholesale or industrial companies that are restructuring or conducting strategic closures. New York is the center for so many of these activities and Tiger is proud to plant its flag here.”
