CRG Hires Former Duke Realty Acquisitions Team
Chicago-based CRG, the development and investment management arm of Clayco, has hired the leadership team responsible for acquisitions at Duke Realty, recently acquired by Prologis. The new hires include Mark Crawford, who joins CRG as CIO; Joe Hawkins, who will serve as SVP of portfolio management for CRG’s investment management platform; and Isaac Lau, who will serve as VP of acquisitions for CRG’s Western Region.
Crawford and Hawkins will split their time between CRG’s new Indianapolis office and its Chicago headquarters, while Lau will join the firm’s SoCal office.
“In 2020, CRG sold a $220-million portfolio of three industrial assets to Duke Realty,” said Shawn Clark, president of CRG. “Mark led the transaction, and through that deal, we witnessed the many corporate and cultural values shared by our teams. When the Duke-Prologis merger was announced, we knew CRG would benefit from this experienced acquisition team.”
