ATLANTA—Dave Curry has joined Franklin Street as senior regional manager of retail in the firm’s Atlanta office. Curry will oversee the company’s more than 1 million-square-foot retail portfolio, as well as seek growth opportunities in the office and industrial sectors alongside regional managing partner John Leonard.

“Atlanta remains on the radar screen for institutional buyers of retail properties, particularly with Atlanta’s continued strong market fundamentals including population and wage growth,” Curry tells GlobeSt.com. “Accordingly, we are seeing continued asset sale velocity as some owners determine their properties have reached an appropriate sale value, while plenty of other institutional owners have ample capital available to participate in Atlanta’s vibrant commercial real estate market. In terms of the real estate cycle itself, I think we’re in the seventh inning of a baseball game, a game which may go into extra innings.”
