Small Business Lunch at Halls with Mark Toro, Project Leader of Lorelei
The King Street Marketing Group and Halls Chophouse are pleased to welcome Mark Toro, Managing Partner North American Properties (NAP) and Project Leader of Lorelei, Thursday, December 1 at noon for our monthly Small Business Lunch at Halls. Lorelei is the largest community investment ever in Charleston
NAP plans to invest $1 billion over the next 10 years to develop and transform Laurel Island, now a vacant island on Charleston's Upper Peninsula, into a robust, vibrant, new community in Charleston. The property is located near Romney Street and Morrison Drive, north of the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge and across from Drum Island.
"A true hidden treasure, Lorelei represents not only one of the most exciting developments in Charlestons history, but also the last premier waterfront parcel on the coveted Peninsula, said Toro.
Lorelei plans to offer retail, restaurants with waterfront patios, a major hotel, meeting space, creative loft offices, Class A office, parking, boat access, luxury multifamily residences, condominiums, single family homes, community gathering spaces, biking and hiking trails and an entertainment venue on the water.
Mark Toro founded the Atlanta office of North American Properties in 1996 and now leads an award-winning team of 75 commercial real estate professionals. He has acquired, developed or redeveloped more than 70 properties totaling more than 25 million square feet in his 35-year career, creating more than $3 billion in value.
An active community builder, Mark serves on the Executive Committee of the Midtown (Atlanta) Alliance Board, and chairs ULI, Atlanta's Livable Communities Council. He was the recipient of the 2015 Henry H. Robinson Award for "outstanding contribution to the Atlanta commercial real estate community" and voted "Most Admired CEO" in commercial real estate by the readers of Atlanta Business Chronicle in 2016.
Prior to opening the Atlanta office, he served as Managing Director for Faison & Associates and Vice President of Development at Cousins/New Market Development Company. Toro holds a BS in Civil Engineering from Rutgers University.
