The Influencers in Industrial Real Estate program is part of GlobeSt.’s respected “Influencers” series, which spans multiple asset classes and recognizes excellence across the commercial real estate industry. Past categories have included multifamily, healthcare, retail, construction, and others, making these awards a benchmark of leadership and performance in the field.
This recognition follows Anthony’s inclusion in GlobeSt.’s “CRE’s Best Bosses of 2024,” a recognition that celebrates commercial real estate leaders for achievements across business growth, operational excellence, mentorship, and community impact. With more than 25 years of experience in development, construction and asset management, Anthony was selected by GlobeSt.’s editorial team for his standout leadership in driving Basis Industrial’s national growth and guiding the firm to prominence.
GlobeSt.’s Influencers in Industrial Real Estate recognition honors individuals and companies who are helping to shape the sector through transformative leadership, innovation, and strategic dealmaking. Recipients are chosen for their ability to adapt to changing market dynamics, push forward notable transactions, and lead with forward-thinking vision.
Under Anthony’s direction, Basis Industrial has expanded its portfolio to more than 5 million square feet of industrial and self-storage properties, with an additional 2 to 3 million square feet in development by year-end. The company is active in Florida, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Texas, Boston, Los Angeles, Alabama, and other select urban markets nationally.
Anthony leads all aspects of the company’s operations, from acquisitions and construction to capital strategy and the creation of BaySpace, Basis’s in-house property management platform. His leadership has played a central role in several industry honors, including awards recognizing rapid company growth, standout transactions, and executive leadership. Basis was named the No. 1 fastest-growing company in South Florida by South Florida Business Journal in 2023 and earned Industrial Transaction of the Year at the 2024 Commercial Observer Breakthrough Awards.
