Brownstones, Condos & Co-ops
New York City projects come with their own rulebook and we’ve spent decades learning how to work with it, not against it. From navigating Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) approvals for historic brownstones to dealing with co-op boards and condo alteration agreements, we know how to keep your project moving without compromising the design.
Whether you’re renovating a kitchen, opening up a floorplan, or making structural changes, we help you stay compliant and coordinated from day one. We work within either a Design-Bid-Build or Design-Build model depending on what fits your needs best and guide the process with a steady hand from start to finish.
1
Evaluate & Advise
We start by reviewing your building’s rules, board requirements, and any LPC guidelines so you know exactly what’s possible and what to expect.
2
Design & Align
We take your vision and tailor it to meet building code, preserve character, and incorporate any feedback from your co-op board or NYC agencies.
3
Submit & Secure Approvals
We coordinate with managing agents, building consultants, and city departments to get your project fully approved and ready to go.
4
Build & Supervise
Once work begins, we stay involved to ensure that what gets built matches what was approved down to the last detail.
Expert Guidance Through NYC Complexity
Working in New York City isn’t just about good design it’s about understanding how to navigate the system. From the first LPC consultation to the final building department sign-off, we’re here to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
We’ve worked on everything from full brownstone renovations to co-op apartment reconfigurations. That means we know the forms, the timelines, the unspoken expectations and how to anticipate the next step before it slows you down.
Our job is to protect your design and your time. We act as your advocates, advisors, and problem-solvers, making sure your project gets done the right way in the city we know best.
