Building custom homes in New York City
We bring a deep understanding of the unique logistical challenges and codes involved in New York City builds. Whether you’re upgrading a pre-war apartment, underpinning and expanding a historic townhouse, or customizing a newly built penthouse overlooking Central Park, our team ensures every detail is executed to perfection.
The city rewards preparation and punishes improvisation. Building in Manhattan is its own discipline: there is no lay-down yard on the street, every heavy lift is a crane pick over the roof, and the approvals begin long before the first delivery.
A pre-war co-op combination runs through the same trades as a Connecticut estate, but with one service elevator, a board that reviews every schedule, neighbors on all six sides, and a Department of Buildings that signs off before a wall moves.
We run that gauntlet the way we run everything else: one line of accountability, the drawings resolved before the field, and a superintendent who has done it in this city before.
