History
Prior to launching HFZ in 2005, Feldman was principal at the national development firm Property Markets Group (PMG), which he co-founded with Kevin Maloney in 1991. At PMG, Feldman also worked with Gary Barnett of Extell Development Company.[6]
In 2013, HFZ and partner Fortress Investment Group purchased four Manhattan rental buildings, including The Astor, from Westbrook Partners for more than $610 million. HFZ then converted the properties into for-sale condominiums.[7][8]
In March 2015, HFZ acquired The Belnord on the Upper West Side of Manhattan from Extell for about $575 million.[9] HFZ hired architect Robert A. M. Stern for the renovation and conversion of the pre-war building into a condominium.[10]
In May 2015, HFZ acquired a full-block site in Chelsea, Manhattan between 17th and 18th Street, and 10th and 11th Avenue for $870 million from Edison Properties. HFZ is developing the property into a two-tower mixed-use development called The XI.[11][12] Designed by architect Bjarke Ingels, The XI will house 236 condos and Six Senses first hotel in the U.S.[13]
