About Centinel Public Partnerships
Centinel Public Partnerships, LLC, headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, is a leading provider of privatized military housing and lodging solutions in the United States. Established on January 31, 2025, Centinel emerged from the acquisition of Lendlease Group's U.S. military housing and lodging portfolio.
This strategic move resulted in a comprehensive portfolio encompassing 10 housing communities and over 70 hotels across 26 states and Puerto Rico, collectively serving more than 3.7 million service members, their families, and guests nationwide.
