BAZZANI JOINS JDA GROUP AS DEVELOPMENT AND INVESTMENT MANAGER

Gregg Bazzani has joined JDA Group LLC as development and investment manager. The news comes at a time of sustained growth for the privately held, Hoboken, New Jersey-based development firm. The privately held commercial and residential developer and owner has a growing portfolio of properties across the Northern New Jersey area and beyond.

In his new role at JDA, Bazzani, of Jersey City, will be instrumental in positioning the family-owned firm for continued growth. His primary responsibilities include identifying and executing new strategic development opportunities and raising equity and debt capital for future acquisitions.

JDA’s projects include The Boundary, a 580,000-square-foot planned mixeduse development straddling the Hoboken-Jersey City border. When completed, the project will turn a former industrial area into a new neighborhood featuring medical and traditional office space, multi-family residential, retail and rooftop green space.

Prior to joining JDA Group, Bazzani was a development associate at Duke Realty where he was involved in acquisition, development and entitlement activities for a three million-square-foot project pipeline. Previously, he was an acquisitions and development associate at Panepinto Properties Inc. Bazzani holds a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Villanova University and a master’s degree in real estate development from New York University’s Schack Institute of Real Estate.
