Here’s what the design and construction team on New York’s premier addresses, Atelier, had to say about Oldcastle Glass.
The Moinian Group—owners and developers of Atelier—are one of the country’s largest privately held real estate firms. Moinian has been credited with transforming the New York City skyline. So when he sought to develop a 45-story luxury high-rise in Manhattan, they called on some of the best in the business. Costas Kondylis, architect and principal of Costas Kondylis Partners, is the man responsible for designing some of the most noteworthy skyscrapers in Manhattan. Israel Berger, principal of Israel Berger & Associates, is a recognized expert in building envelope technologies. Frank Ross Jr., is Executive Vice President at HRH Construction, one of the nation’s top construction managers and general contractors. “This industry and New York City both move at light speed, you need manufacturers that can keep pace,” said Joseph Moinian.
Israel Berger, Curtain Wall Consultant, "The glass selection on a project is a critical decision and merits significant attention. A lot can go wrong with a poor choice. Sometimes to achieve the aesthetic you desire, performance can suffer and vice versa. Oldcastle Glass met our aesthetic, performance and logistical needs perfectly without sacrificing any one of them."
