John A. Elkington
John A. Elkington is an American real estate developer best known for the redevelopment of Beale Street, the entertainment district in Memphis, Tennessee, known in the United States as a popular tourist destination.
==Education and early career==
Elkington earned a B.A. in psychology from Vanderbilt University before graduating from the University of Memphis Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law. He began his business career in 1975 by launching a company that specialized in property management for condominiums.
In 1979, with business partner Steve Keltner, Elkington built the first private unit development (PUD) in Memphis. The success of this venture was followed by many other residential developments and by 1985, Elkington & Keltner Group was ranked #79 on ''Inc.'' magazine’s “Inc. 5000,” an annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in the U.S. For 10 years, Elkington & Keltner was named one of the “Top 100 Builders” in America by ''Professional Builder'' magazine.
In the 1990s, Elkington formed a new company focused on urban redevelopment, with projects as varied as Nashville's historic Union Station, the Scimitar Building in downtown Memphis, and Lenox School in midtown Memphis. Lenox School, built in 1912, had been closed for years before its conversion into condominiums that retained the integrity of the original building. In 2002, John Elkington was the recipient of the A.W. Willis Preservation Award from the Memphis Heritage Foundation, a non-profit historic preservation society.
