Arts & Culture Construction Division

Cultural institutions in New York present a unique challenge unlike any other. There is a strong emphasis on preservation, and we often have to work in and around delicate and priceless artifacts. In addition, we are privileged to be surrounded by absolutely stunning architectural design, completed with a mix of innovative materials, not to mention some of the most passionate personalities in the entire city. We have worked on some of the most important institutions in New York, including Smithsonian Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum, The New York Botanical Garden and Christie’s Auction House.
