History
Jackson Management was founded in 1975 by Jack Holland, a successful industrialist in the steel business, who saw the future of the New York real estate industry approaching fast. His family business at the time, Holland Steel, was a major player in the steel construction industry. Holland Steel began taking ownership positions in many of its major projects as part of its fees. Shortly thereafter, Jack, along with his brothers and sons began developing his own properties while purchasing others, including The Riverton from Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in 1976. Each of these properties was managed by Jackson Management. Jackson Management was also one of the first management companies to successfully convert its buildings to cooperatives in the 1980’s.
The philosophy of Jackson Management has always been first and foremost, that our buildings are our tenants’ homes. This is how we treat our properties and this philosophy informs how we run them.
Since its inception, Jackson Management has handled over 4,500 units throughout the Five Boroughs:
Richard Holland, Adam Holland and Leslie Holland have been integral to the success of Jackson Management, especially the repositioning of Riverton from 1999-2005, leading to the highest price paid per unit in Harlem at its sale in 2005.
