HHC Elevates CFO O’Reilly to President

The Howard Hughes Corporation has appointed CFO David O’Reilly as president, succeeding Grant Herlitz, who stepped down last October. O’Reilly will also continue as CFO, a position he has held since joining HHC in 2016.

“David has provided tremendous leadership to our company over the past years as our CFO and has been instrumental in positioning us well for the future,” said CEO Paul H. Layne.

He added that O’Reilly’s “expertise and insights into the complexities of our business, our industries, and the financial realm are an invaluable resource for our company.”

O’Reilly said, “I look forward to continuing the success that we have had in focusing our resources into our core portfolio of master-planned communities and positioning our company to meet the changing demands of the market.”

As part of that plan, HHC plans to sell non-core assets and relocate its headquarters to The Woodlands, its largest master-planned community.
