Our September presentation will discuss the possibility of office building conversion to alternative use. NYC office occupancy rate reached 50% as of June 2023.  Our esteemed presenter is member Bob Knakal, Head of the NY Private Capital Group for JLL Capital Markets.  

Bob Knakal is a sales broker selling investment properties in New York City since 1984.  Bob currently leads the Private Capital Group for JLL in New York.  It is generally accepted that Bob has brokered the sale of more properties (2,252) in New York City than any other individual broker ever.  Bob was Chairman and Founding Partner of Massey Knakal Realty Services, New York’s #1 building sales firm.  From 1988 through 2014, Massey Knakal closed over 6,000 transactions with an aggregate value in excess of $23 billion.  To date, Bob has been personally responsible for the sale of over 2,252 buildings (generally considered to be the highest total ever for a single broker in New York) and over $21 billion in sales.  Since 2009, Bob has written a weekly column on the New York City Real Estate Market called Concrete Thoughts for the Commercial Observer.  Bob graduated from the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania with a bachelor’s degree in economics in 1984.
