C&W's Stacom Named Exec Vice Chairman

NEW YORK CITY-Tara Stacom, who as leasing agent for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey‘s 1 World Trade Center secured Conde Nast‘s 1.2-million-square-foot headquarters lease Downtown, has been promoted to executive vice chairman at Cushman & Wakefield, the firm announced Monday. Stacom has executed more than 40 million square feet of deals since joining C&W in 1981, and was promoted to vice chairman in 2005.

Scale and complexity are two of the hallmarks of Stacom’s leasing career, and both characteristics figured in the Conde deal at 1 WTC. Stacom, who led a C&W team that won the Real Estate Board of New York’s annual Henry Hart Rice Award for the deal last year, has been the exclusive leasing agent at the tower since 2007.
