Fisher Brothers

Fisher Brothers

Fisher Brothers was founded in 1915 by the Fisher family and began as a residential and hospitality developer before pivoting to commercial real estate. Winston Fisher serves as a principal and has overseen expansions including the 2020 launch of AREA15 in Las Vegas. The wealth originated entirely from successive generations of property development and ownership in New York City. The firm maintains a core portfolio of office towers including 299 Park Avenue, 605 Third Avenue, and 1345 Avenue of the Americas. It has executed residential projects such as 111 Murray Street and House 39 in Manhattan plus Station House in Washington DC. Asset classes include direct real estate ownership, private equity via the co-founded FdG Associates, and venture positions through Fisher Capital Investments. Geographic reach covers New York, Washington DC, Las Vegas, and Miami. In 2004 the firm co-sponsored the 770M City Investment Fund with Morgan Stanley to target post-9/11 Manhattan real estate. Fisher Brothers employs an integrated operating model with in-house development, construction, and property management. Lionheart Strategic Management, formed in 2017, manages third-party capital alongside family assets and has deployed nearly 1B since inception. Winston Fisher chairs Lionheart. In June 2025 the firm increased its majority stake in 1345 Avenue of the Americas in a transaction that brought Blackstone Real Estate in as a 46 percent joint-control partner. Additional offices are not disclosed. The firm maintains a hybrid structure that combines long-term ownership of operating real estate with dedicated venture and private equity vehicles. This architecture allows direct control over physical assets while accessing non-real estate returns through Fisher Capital Investments and affiliated managers without relying on external fund commitments as the primary deployment method.
