DREAM INDUSTRIAL REIT APPOINTS THEIR NEW CEO AND CFO

Dream Industrial REIT started 2015 with a new executive team in place with the appointment of Brent Chapman as President and Chief Executive Officer and Lenis Quan as Chief Financial Officer.

Brent replaced Randy Cameron, who retired as President and CEO on October 31, 2014. Brent has over 28 years of experience across all facets of the real estate industry and comes to Dream Industrial REIT from Guardian Capital Real Estate, where he was Managing Director. Prior to being with Guardian, Brent was President and CEO of GPM Investment Management and a director of Integrated Asset Management, the parent company of GPM.

She was most recently the Chief Financial Officer of Gazit America, a publicly traded real estate investment company which was privatized. Prior to joining Gazit America, Lenis worked at Brookfield Asset Management for approximately ten years in a number of progressive executive finance positions. Lenis is a Chartered Professional Accountant and started her professional career with Deloitte.

Dream Executives were recently recognized for their excellence and professional achievements.

Dream Executives Recognized

DOMTAR LANDS REDEVELOPMENT – A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO CREATE A WORLD-CLASS SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITYIn 2014, Dream was able to seize a very unique opportunity when it partnered up with Windmill Development Group to take part in transforming an important location in Canada’s National Capital Region. The 37-acre site referred to as the Domtar Lands is unique in many ways – it is located in both the City of Ottawa and the City of Gatineau and consists of two islands and a portion of the Gatineau River bank. Historically, the lands had been reserved for industrial uses. That changed and last October, Ottawa City Council approved the Official Plan and Zoning By-law amendment application to establish the lands to be developed into a unique and dynamic mixed-use community - an opportunity to create a world-class sustainable community in what is considered to be one of the largest redevelopments in the National Capital Region.

The result of this zoning will allow us to develop over 1.3 million square feet of density on the Ottawa Lands. A similar zoning amendment has been approved by the City of Gatineau, which will increase the total density to approximately 3.6 million square feet of mixed use, office, residential and hotel space, including 200,000 square feet of existing brick and beam structures. Whenever possible, existing heritage structures will be integrated. The development’s overall time horizon is about 12 years, with the first residential buildings to be marketed this year. Together with our partner, we have also been actively pursuing commercial and retail tenants and the responses continue to surpass our expectations. We are extremely proud to be part of such an outstanding opportunity to transform the “landscape” in our Nation’s capital.

The community was recently name Zibi, which means ‘river’ in the Algonquin language. Read more here: http://goo.gl/AcbqDg

Dream Sponsors The Shoebox Project In 2014, Dream became the first National Corporate Sponsor of the Shoebox Proj-ect for Shelters, a national organization that brightens the lives of women living in shelters by providing them with gifts during the holidays. In the first of Dream’s three-year partnership with the Shoebox Project, Dream employees across the country contributed hundreds of shoe-boxes filled with gifts: boxes were collect-ed in Saskatoon, Regina, Calgary, Missis-sauga, Toronto and Dartmouth, and were often the result of colleagues making box-es together as teams. The drives in Regina and Saskatoon were the cities’ first, and Dream employees were proud to make and collect over 200 boxes to launch the Saskatchewan chapters.
