With over 1,000,000 square feet, 438 condominium units and parking for over 650 cars, One Brooklyn Bridge Park is the largest residential conversion in Brooklyn’s history and one of RAL’s most ambitious and challenging projects to date.

Under RAL, the construction team accelerated the schedule, conformed to budgets, and provided the high level of construction quality The Four Seasons brand demands. RAL’s professional experience in architecture, an alpine environment, and engineering facilitated an easy flow of documentation and information between the project’s design team and construction staff, while our experience in hotel procurements and installations aided communications between ownership and the operators.

At 450,000 square feet and 87 residential units, Tower 270 was one of the largest combined-use real estate renovation projects ever undertaken in Manhattan. RAL purchased, converted, and restored the Arthur Levitt State Office Building at Broadway and Chambers Street in lower Manhattan into a combination of residential and office spaces.

The RAL team established new and successful strategies to deal with all aspects of the project including revising the unit sales approach, refocusing hotel/resort management and operations on bottom line effects, implementing owner outreach programs and restructuring the condo-hotel’s rental program. The result was dramatically increased sales velocity and reduced vacancy rates for the rental program.

RAL anticipated the northern expansion of Chelsea above 23rd Street and the result was Loft 25, a unique transformation of a 1918 industrial loft building into one of Manhattan’s most elegant loft residences.

RAL oversaw a complete modern refresh to the property. A phased approach was implemented with the renovation of 94 guestrooms, an upgraded Spa and Fitness Center, the introduction of Bar Margot, and the construction of a new Penthouse Ballroom and event center at the 50th floor. Through maintaining expert communication across all project stakeholders, RAL was able to achieve project completion on time and within budget.

The Prospérité is a 128’ long barge traversing the scenic canals of the French countryside and catering to the highest level of clientele.
