NYC Pre-war Expert

We transform apartments built for pre-war living into light-view-space filled apartments with more useable (enjoyable!) space.

We understand the culture that created the pre-war homes of NYC, and know how to revitalize those homes for 21st century life. We are intimately connected to the limitations and opportunities of pre-war buildings and know how to communicate with the DOB, coops, and condos to get the approvals you need.

Prioritize Communication

We are a relationship-first company. What that means is that we are here for you when you have questions.

We have a delightful-process that prioritizes communication. We ask you what would make your project delightful, and we get your feedback. We act on your feedback every month.

Value Creation

We create joy from raw materials; you start with a pile of commodities and end with your home.

We focus on your experience of being in the space and put your construction budget to its highest and best use. Our value creation is experienced when the work is complete. It is the joy you will have in your new home.
