Our History

The Foundation

High Street was co-founded by former partners of Trammell Crow Company, marking the beginning of our journey in reshaping the industrial and logistics real estate landscape.

The First Leap

Launch of HS Fund I, a series of non-discretionary joint ventures. This inaugural fund set the stage for our future endeavors.

Building Momentum

HS Fund II launches, consisting of two non-discretionary joint ventures. This step reinforced our growing presence in the market.

Building the Core Team

The foundation for High Street’s future growth is laid with the appointment of Andy Zgutowicz as Head of Acquisitions and John Hoadley as Chief Financial Officer.

Expanding Horizons

The launch of HS Fund III, High Street’s first fully discretionary fund and marked the beginning of our narrow focus exclusively on logistics assets.
