Building Communities,
One Development at a Time.
Thomas McPherson’s approach to real estate development goes beyond just creating buildings; it’s about building communities. With Lukrom, Thomas has committed himself to projects that foster growth, sustainability, and opportunity for all involved. Each development reflects his dedication to not only enhancing urban landscapes but also improving the lives of those who call these communities home.
One of his standout projects, ECO Mesa Apartments, exemplifies this vision. Located in the heart of Mesa, Arizona, this development offers modern living spaces while maintaining a commitment to environmental sustainability. For Thomas, the development of ECO Mesa was more than just a real estate venture—it was about contributing to the community and creating a lasting impact through responsible design.
Another key project, ECO PHX Apartments in Phoenix, aligns with his goal of creating sustainable, urban developments that also benefit the broader community. Through the Opportunity Zone initiative, this project provides investors with tax incentives, ensuring that the surrounding area thrives economically as well as socially.
In addition to his real estate work, Thomas co-founded the Madre Tierra Foundation with his wife, Joanna. The foundation’s mission is to support individuals working on impactful projects in fields such as education, renewable energy, and food production. By partnering with programs in the U.S., Costa Rica, Rwanda, and Ghana, Thomas and his foundation are helping to create a more abundant, equitable world. Through both his real estate ventures and philanthropic efforts, Thomas is not just building properties—he’s building communities, one development at a time.
