Bio
Richard W. Rosenthal serves as the Executive Managing Director of Helmsley Spear, LLC. While at Helmsley, Mr. Rosenthal will focus primarily on strategic real estate planning and implementation, transaction structuring, tenant and landlord representation, lease negotiation and property sales. Prior to joining Helmsley Spear, Mr. Rosenthal served as the Executive Managing Director and Principal for Lee & Associates in New York City with its office brokerage division.
Mr. Rosenthal started his career as a licensed real estate broker over thirty years ago at Wm. A. White & Sons which evolved into Grubb & Ellis. During that time Mr. Rosenthal had the distinction of having twice been selected as the recipient of the Real Estate Board of New York’s coveted Most Ingenious Deal of the Year award. Mr. Rosenthal earned his first award for the assemblage of properties, and the planning and the structuring of a major office lease with National General Corp. culminating in the construction, by the joint venture, of a 33-story, 478,000 square foot office building at 1500 Broadway. The second award was for a transaction enabling Actors Equity to maintain its identity and enhance its financial position at 1560 Broadway, a 17-story 213,000 square-foot office building now known as the Actors Equity Building. The transaction included a ground lease, the creation and sale of a leasehold, and a long-term lease on its office space.
Among the many clients, Mr. Rosenthal has represented are National General Corp., Williams College, News America Publishing, SIAC, HarperCollins Publishers, The Kaplan Thaler Group, Mount Sinai, Medical Imaging of Manhattan, LLC, Polo/ Ralph Lauren, and MicroTek.
