Today we are joined by Joey Chilelli and Brett Geffner of The Vanbarton Group.

Recently, the firm has pivoted towards converting office spaces into residential units, responding to the city's evolving needs amidst changing work patterns. These conversion projects not only aim to revitalize underutilized office assets but also to address New York City's ongoing housing shortage.
