Rental Information

Lea Bell Caliandro was a co-founder of Tower Management and its main guiding force for over four decades.  Ms. Caliandro recognized early on that the key to Tower’s long-term success was through an in-house management team, which she formed in 1981 to manage all of Tower’s buildings.  In 1993, Tower consolidated all of its property/partnerships and the management company into Tower Management Service, L.P.  From that time until her passing in October 2022, Ms. Caliandro served as the Managing General Partner.   

As the largest single owner of the company’s partnership units, Ms. Caliandro firmly aligned her interests with the firm’s 150 limited partners and focused on delivering value to them. Ms. Caliandro assembled and directed a team of experienced real estate professionals in finance, asset and property management, operations, leasing and marketing. The entire team remains dedicated to enhancing her legacy and a management approach based on enhancing the performance and market position of existing properties while pursuing opportunities and executing strategies to add to the portfolio as appropriate
