Silverstein Properties has promoted Shawn Katz to lead its lending platform, Silverstein Capital Partners, taking over from Michael May, who is stepping down as President.

“I am delighted that Shawn will lead Silverstein Capital Partners as the platform continues to grow. Over the past six years, he has done a terrific job helping us manage and expand this business. I would also like to thank Michael for his great work launching and building the platform. Thanks to their efforts, we have raised over $5 billion, and financed a number of iconic development projects across the United States and overseas.” said Lisa Silverstein, CEO of Silverstein Properties.
