Hofstra Law alumnus Wesley Rudes ’94 has joined commercial real estate firm Cushman & Wakefield as executive director. He has 20 years of commercial real estate experience and most recently served as a principal with Cresa.
“Wes Rudes has a first-class reputation among New York brokers as a master deal-closer specializing in the downtown submarket,” said Ron Lo Russo, president of Cushman & Wakefield’s New York Tri-State Region. “We are excited by the influx of new talent into our firm and we expect Wes to make major contributions to our success.”
Earlier in his career, Rudes was instrumental in launching an initiative that leased prebuilt, Web-enabled space to 250 technology companies in lower Manhattan, which helped spur development of Silicon Alley.
