Bio
Dennis Carlisle is obsessed with Philadelphia’s history, geography, architecture, zoning, land use, and development. He has written about the histories of over 2,000 individual Philadelphia properties, from the most monumental buildings to the most mundane parking lots. Whenever he can, he utilizes his unique knowledge, abilities, and creativity to help his clients; whether to advise on zoning and permitting, aid in the due diligence process, or simply find the history of a property. Dennis specializes in historical buildings, development sites, commercial leasing, multifamily, and mixed-use properties. He takes the most pride in seeing a site he brokered be developed or an exciting new business open in a commercial space he listed. Before joining MPN, Dennis worked in the acquisition of development sites for OCF Realty and established OCF’s Commercial Real Estate sales and leasing division from scratch. Dennis is a prolific pedestrian and transit user; anyone who walks or rides with him will receive an earful about the past and/or future about properties passed along the way. Dennis resides in the Roxborough section of Philadelphia with his wife and three cats.
