In a move reflecting a push for stronger corporate governance and strategic expansion in mixed-use developments, Comstock announced the appointment of David Hirsh to its Board of Directors effective June 18, 2026. Hirsh joins the firm with a distinguished background as a former Managing Director at Blackstone and brings over 30 years of experience in capital markets and real estate asset management. According to reports, his appointment is designed to provide high-level guidance leveraging his extensive tenure at both Blackstone and Citigroup.
This leadership addition occurs as major financial institutions maintain steady market positions, with Blackstone (BX) closing at $125.01 and Citigroup (C) at $143.85 per market data on June 17, 2026. In the broader peer group, JPMorgan (JPM) stood at $327.78 at the close of June 18, 2026, while Bank of America (BAC) closed at $56.53. Recruiting talent from these tier-1 firms is often viewed by mid-cap real estate companies as a catalyst for institutional-grade strategic planning and improved investor relations.
