Carnegie strives to create timeless designs and buildings with quality materials that function efficiently, provide flexible floor plans and are responsive to the tenants’ needs while being economically viable, in environmentally sensitive and beautiful surroundings.  This is the Carnegie history as well as the vision that continues to guide us.

THE FOCUS of Carnegie, is and always has been specialized, pre-leased, design/build properties for specific tenants in single tenant buildings or individual tenant buildings as part of a larger multi-building campus.  Carnegie’s focus on large parcel developments with multiple, complimentary buildings in campus settings creates a portfolio that provides attractive properties that may be somewhat less profitable, but provide long term asset security and a lower threshold of risk, thereby establishing a solid economic base.  Environmentally sensitive green buildings provide energy efficient.

WE APPROACH development with our tenants as a "partnership in success" by understanding their needs as well as their financial constraints. Developing such a working relationship provides the optimal environment for furthering the goal of a successful partnership.

WE TAKE THE TIME to learn all we can about your site and building requirements. This enables us to build functional, efficient, convenient, user-friendly facilities in the best locations for you to successfully conduct your business. 

CARNEGIE emphasizes pre development research and analysis of factors and issues that may affect the long term viability of a proposed project.  Obtaining and evaluating information on the business climate, demographics, historical data and future plans for the area provides a more accurate assessment of the economic feasibility, eventual cost and long term value to the prospective tenant.  Our development and construction plans, whenever possible, reflect a design that simplifies expansion and/or conversion, should the need ever occur.

At Carnegie’s inception it was headquartered at University Circle in its first new development project, the nine-story University Cedar Medical Office Building.  Carnegie’s mission was to build custom designed properties constructed for the specific tenants’ needs.  This responsive approach to development expanded the company into a full-service real estate development and management company, with its focus on long term asset-based growth.

Carnegie’s focus on details and creative solutions to complex issues has provided the basis required to formulate designs that function better, are more efficient, less costly and aesthetically pleasing.  Carnegie has not wavered from its goals or ideals and continues to create high quality, attractive, functionally efficient, Tenant specific facilities that respond to today’s needs and tomorrow’s goals, resulting in a longer useful life and greater values for the Tenant.

Our only measure of success is your satisfaction.  For that reason most of our new business is with old clients.
