Our work is often cited as a model for best practices in adaptive reuse, trusted by peers and partners alike.
Every decision is deliberate, and we navigate each project’s complexity with the practiced clarity that comes from experience.
Our process begins with a plan, one rooted in discipline, shaped by experience, and refined down to the inch. Every square foot is carefully considered to maximize the potential of the existing asset while delivering elevated design and market-leading amenities.
At 111 Wall Street, MetroLoft brought its expertise in large-scale conversions to a Class A office redevelopment led by InterVest. By building on the capital improvements already made and meticulously reworking every square foot, we are helping to reposition the project as a 1,580-unit luxury residential tower, unlocking greater value and setting a new benchmark for high-end adaptive reuse in New York City.
It’s a project that reflects the heart of our approach: ambitious in scope, rigorous in execution, and defined by a level of precision that is raising the standard for what these buildings can become.

We are driven by purposeful redevelopment. If the solution doesn’t exist, we create one. That mindset keeps us looking forward, designing for a city in motion and for the expectations of tomorrow’s residents.
At 55 Broad Street, formerly a 30-story office tower in the heart of the Financial District, MetroLoft introduced a patent-pending air delivery system that reimagines how HVAC can function in a converted high-rise. Developed by our in-house team, the plenum box solution allows each apartment to operate independently, without the need for a central boiler plant or cooling tower.
The building has been transformed into over 570 luxury units while maintaining ground-floor retail and multiple floors of active commercial tenants, an effort made possible through this innovative, efficient, and flexible system.
It’s innovation rooted not in novelty, but in need, and in knowing how to bring creative solutions to life at scale.
We’ve been pioneers in adaptive reuse for more than two decades, not just because we know how to see potential, but because we know how to deliver on it.
At 443 Greenwich Street, MetroLoft executed a complete interior rebuild within the historic shell of a 19th-century book bindery, digging out the core, replacing every wood joist with steel and concrete, pouring new floors between every level, and reassembling the structure from within. The result is a building that retains its original character while delivering the soundproofing, strength, and refinement expected of ultra-luxury living, reflected in its record-setting condominium sales downtown. Every element, from the underground porte cochère to the central courtyard, was designed to offer residents a rare sense of privacy and quiet in the heart of Tribeca.
This is where experience matters. Where vision becomes progress, quickly and effectively.
None of our work happens in isolation. Collaboration is at the core of how we build, with longstanding relationships, trusted partnerships, and a shared commitment to quality.
Our ongoing relationship with Collaborative Construction Management has shaped many of our most successful projects. The trust and mutual respect between our teams allow us to stay closely engaged with the construction process, from big-picture planning to on-site decisions. That collaboration continues at 219–235 East 42nd Street, the former Pfizer headquarters, where we’re converting over 1.3 million square feet into approximately 1,600 luxury rental units. This project stands as the city’s largest office-to-residential conversion, underscoring the strength of our partnership and our shared commitment to delivering exceptional results.
From architects of the past to the partners and investors we work with today, we believe the best outcomes are built together.
