History
The company was founded by Sylvan M. Cohen (1914-2001) in 1960 following the passage of the Real Estate Investment Trust Act, which allowed real estate trusts to access money from public investment.[1][2] In 1997, the company acquired The Rubin Organization for $260 million, and founder and chief executive officer Ronald Rubin became CEO of PREIT.[3][4] In 2003, the company acquired six shopping malls from The Rouse Company.[5][6] The company also acquired Crown American.[7]
In 2012, Joseph Coradino was named chief executive officer of the company.[8]
The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on November 1, 2020, and exited bankruptcy protection on December 11, 2020.[9][10][11][12]
On December 10, 2023, PREIT once again filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.[13] The company exited its bankruptcy proceedings in April 2024 as a private company under the ownership of its former lenders and appointed Jared Chupaila as CEO.[14][15]
