Dive Brief:
Woodfield Development has hired Neil Hanlon as vice president of development to lead the Charleston, South Carolina-based development expansion into Arizona and Nevada, according to a news release shared with Multifamily Dive.
Hanlon will be responsible for sourcing new opportunities and overseeing the development process. He previously spent more than seven years with Greystar, most recently as the director of development in Phoenix, where he oversaw multifamily projects in the Southwest. The industry veteran also worked in investment banking and senior housing acquisitions in New York and San Diego. 
Woodfield, the No. 21 developer in the country, said Phoenix and Las Vegas share many of the same fundamentals as the firm’s Southeast and Texas markets, including strong population and job growth, business-friendly environments and an attractive quality of life.
