Pashman Stein Debuts Philly Office

Pashman Stein Debuts Philly Office

Pashman Stein Walder Hayden is expanding into Philadelphia, hiring cannabis industry practice leader Seth Goldberg from Duane Morris to lead the new office. The Hackensack-based firm will occupy 2,500 square feet on the 31st floor of One Commerce Square at 2005 Market St. starting March 1. The short-term lease includes four offices and a conference room, with options for future expansion.

Goldberg will be the firm’s sole Philadelphia attorney, spearheading recruitment and growth efforts. Chair and Managing Partner Michael Stein anticipates outgrowing the space by year’s end, with potential lateral hires and interest from Wilmington-based lawyers seeking to work in Center City.

Stein, who worked alongside Goldberg on a litigation matter for Virtua Health, praised his professional and personal qualities. He noted that the firm’s long-standing interest in the Philadelphia market stems from having to decline work without a local presence.

Wanamaker Foreclosure Nears Key Milestone Ahead of Auction

Wanamaker Foreclosure Nears Key Milestone Ahead of Auction

A Philadelphia court ruling on Jan. 31 sided with lender TF Cornerstone in the Wanamaker building foreclosure case, eliminating the need for a trial. The decision puts the historic Center City office building on track for auction as TF Cornerstone moves to take control from Rubenstein Partners. The court partially granted TF Cornerstone’s motion for summary judgment on Rubenstein’s liability. In a November filing, TF Cornerstone claimed Rubenstein owed nearly $126 million on the loan for the 114-year-old property. A hearing to assess damages is set for Feb. 25.

FS Exit Fuels Ensemble’s Navy Yard Optimism

FS Exit Fuels Ensemble’s Navy Yard Optimism

Mark Seltzer, who has leased office space at the Philadelphia Navy Yard since 2006, has never been more optimistic. According to Seltzer, managing director at Ensemble Investments, 2021, 2022, and 2024 were the Navy Yard’s top office leasing years in two decades. Today, only 2,800 square feet remain available in Ensemble’s 300,000-square-foot Navy Yard portfolio. That will change in early 2026 when FS Investments vacates 201 Rouse Blvd., an 80,000-square-foot building, for University City. While Seltzer regrets their departure, he’s confident about filling the space.

FS Investments Moving HQ to Schuylkill Yards

FS Investments Moving HQ to Schuylkill Yards

FS Investments is relocating from the Philadelphia Navy Yard to Brandywine Realty Trust’s new $300 million mixed-use tower at 3025 John F. Kennedy Boulevard in Schuylkill Yards. The 16-year lease will expand FS’s space by 46%, from 80,000 to 117,000 square feet, across four floors in the 28-story tower. FS plans to move nearly 300 local employees by January 2026.

This move marks FS’s third use of Keystone Opportunity Zone tax credits. CEO Michael Forman emphasized that without access to a KOZ building near 30th Street Station, the company might have relocated its headquarters out of Philadelphia. The new space, near major employers like the University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University, offers proximity to transit and high-demand amenities.

Centre Square Likely to Sell to Cover $375M Debt

Centre Square Likely to Sell to Cover $375M Debt

After two years of foreclosure proceedings with little clarity on Centre Square’s future, the property’s receiver now says a sale is “very likely.” Owners Nightingale Properties and InterVest Capital Partners, formerly Wafra Capital Partners, owe over $375 million on the overdue CMBS loan backing the 1.76 million-square-foot office complex, court records show. Wells Fargo Bank filed a foreclosure complaint on behalf of investors in January 2023, placing the Center City property in receivership three months later. Since then, little progress had been made.

On Jan. 6, CBRE, the court-appointed receiver, filed a motion in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania indicating it is preparing to sell 1500 Market St. The motion seeks to remove court requirements CBRE believes could hinder securing the best possible price.
