Lindale Mall parent company names new CEO amid turmoil

CEDAR RAPIDS — After corporate and legal turmoil, Lindale Mall’s owner has a new CEO who is pledging to boost performance across the company’s commercial real estate portfolio. Ran Daniel took over in September as chief executive officer and chief financial officer for Kohan Properties Ltd. The move followed the ouster of company namesake Mike Kohan after what The Real Deal, a real estate publication, described as “allegations of secret loans” and “bond misuse.” Kohan Retail Investment Group bought the 732,666-square-foot Lindale Mall for $28.5 million in March 2023 . At the time, The Gazette detailed some of the previous controversies surrounding Kohan. For instance, in May 2023, a mall in Hamburg, New York , was sold for over $7 million in an online auction, according to WGRZ-TV in Buffalo, New York. Kohan had bought the property in foreclosure for $8.5 million in 2021. He owed $176,069 in overdue taxes on the property for 2022. Kohan owed $355,434 in unpaid base taxes in January 2023 and accrued $30,157 in penalties for another property, Central Mall in Port Arthur, Texas, but those taxes were paid in April, according to the Jefferson County Tax Office.
