Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust is a publicly traded real estate investment trust that invests in shopping centers mostly in the Mid-Atlantic states.

History

The company was founded by Sylvan M. Cohen in 1960 as one of the first equity REITs.[1][2] In 1997, the company acquired the Rubin Organization for $260 million.[3] In 2001, founder Sylvan Cohen died.[4] In 2003, the company acquired 6 shopping malls from The Rouse Company.[5][6] The company also acquired Crown American.[7] In 2006, the company acquired Woodland Mall for $177.4 million.[8] In 2012, Joseph Coradino was named chief executive officer of the company.[9]

In 2013, the company sold Christiana Center and Commons at Magnolia for $87.3 million.[10] In 2014, the company acquired a building in Philadelphia.[11] In 2015, the company acquired Springfield Town Center for $465 million from Vornado Realty Trust.[12] In 2016, the company sold 4 malls for $93 million.[13] In 2019, the company turned Wyoming Valley Mall over to its mortgage holder, GS Mortgage Securities Trust, to avoid foreclosure after failing to find a buyer for the property.[14][15] It owed $72.8 million on the loan, which had been in special servicing since July 2018.[14][16] The mall had lost almost 75% of its 2014 $122 million value before being turned over.[17]

The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on November 1, 2020, and exited bankruptcy protection on December 11, 2020.[18][19][20] In November 2023, PREIT announced that it may have to file for another bankruptcy filing and that it may be unable to continue operations as it overcomes a $1.1 billion payment that was due by the end of 2023, and stated that it will likely be unable to pay the payment before the deadline.[21] On December 10, 2023, PREIT once again filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, with plans to restructure and complete its bankruptcy procedure by February 2024.[22]

According to a report from December 31, 2020, the company owned interest in 26 properties in 9 states containing 19.8 million square feet.[1]
