The Spirit of Entrepreneurship is thrilled to announce Lynne Tahmisian, President of La Arcada Investment Corporation as the 2020 Rock Star: Lifetime Achievement Award recipient. Tahmisian has built a successful business with her special blend of business savvy and compassion that has made La Arcada a treasured landmark on State Street.



When you walk around the historic La Arcada Court with Tahmisian you notice a lot more than the tile-lined walkways, fountains and beautiful sculptures that decorate the lush landscapes. As she introduces you to her tenants, you learn not only their name and business, but also how many kids they have and what their names and ages are. It is obvious that for Tahmisian La Arcada is more than just a business, it’s family. She considers her tenants to be her “flock” and for more than 20 years, she has kept a watchful eye to ensure the safety and welfare of the small businesses who call La Arcada home.
