ATLANTA, GA -- After winning multiple contracts last fall to manage and lease millions of square feet of metro Atlanta office space, Lincoln Property Company Southeast has announced the hiring of an established veteran and the promotion of one of its brightest young talents to service the assignments.

In November, Equity Office awarded the company contracts to manage 3.3 million square feet and lease 1.9 million square feet in metro Atlanta. The management assignment covers buildings in Atlanta’s North Fulton and Northeast submarkets, and the leasing assignment is for the North Fulton portfolio.

The company has hired Michael Howell as vice president, office, to handle the leasing of the North Fulton buildings. Howell, who joins Lincoln from Resource Real Estate Partners, where he was a landlord rep, also will focus on growing the company’s third-party-agency leasing business. He has completed more than 300 commercial real estate transactions totaling more than $100 million.

 Howell will team with Hunter Henritze (top right photo), who was promoted to vice president.  Henritze has been a rising star within Lincoln, having served in multiple strategic roles including acquisitions, dispositions, valuations and leasing during his six years with the company. 

Howell and Henritze have hit the ground running. Recent completed transactions include Volkswagen-Audi’s lease of 16,500 square feet in Northwinds II in Alpharetta (Kerry Davidson and Bennett Gottlieb of CB Richard Ellis represented the tenant), TechTarget’s renewal of a 7,300-square-foot lease in Northwinds I and United Industries’ renewal of a 7,000-square-foot lease in Northwinds III (top centered photo).

“Hunter Henritze has done outstanding work for us since joining Lincoln in 2006 and his promotion is well deserved and representative of his tremendous value to our company,” said Tony Bartlett (lower left photo), Senior Vice President at Lincoln.  “Michael Howell is a leasing star and brings experience, energy and a track record of success we desire to build upon.”
