CSP develops projects for its own account and serves as a consultant to non-profits or entrepreneurs with a real estate vision. Wherever we work, our goals are the same: to finance, develop, build, and manage authentic environments that inspire collaboration, spur innovation, and sustain community connection.

  Provide support with lease administration, property event and programming, market research, and working directly with tenants in CSP’s community-oriented spaces.
