In 2014, Ciarrocchi opened Downtown Summerlin®, the community’s acclaimed 400-acre urban core that has become one of Southern Nevada’s most popular destinations for fashion, dining, sports, and entertainment.  He oversaw the hiring of a top-notch management team and negotiated multi-million-dollar contracts for third-party contractors including security, janitorial, landscaping, valet, and concierge. Ciarrocchi partnered with leasing, development, and construction on all aspects of lease-up and property design to deliver a first-class shopping and dining environment.

He assisted with property development for HH Class-A office buildings– ONE and TWO Summerlin, 1700 Pavilion, Aristocrat Technologies buildings, and the recently opened One Merdian. Under Ciarrocchi’s tenure, the Downtown Summerlin area has blossomed to include three luxury apartment neighborhoods – Constellation®, Tanager, Tanager Echo, as well as two professional sports venues – City National Arena, practice facility for the National Hockey League’s Vegas Golden Knights, and Las Vegas Ballpark®, a 10,000-capacity minor league baseball stadium home to the Las Vegas Aviators®. Representing operations and leasing, Ciarrocchi is a key member of a cross-functional team to help launch future developments, including the new Whole Foods Market retail center at Downtown Summerlin opening in 2025.

Ciarrocchi has over 20 years of experience in retail and commercial property management. Prior to his appointment with HH, he served as a District Manager with Westfield Group where he led multiple development projects and oversaw operations for a nearly two-million-square-foot shopping destination with annual visitation of 15 million and annual sales that exceeded $500 million.

A graduate of Pepperdine University where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, he is an active member of ICSC and achieved SCSM and CRX designations. Recently, as part of an industry expert task force, Ciarrocchi helped redefine all existing ICSC certifications into a comprehensive Certified Retail Real Estate Professional (CRRP) designation.
