Venable / 1 Overview Venable’s New York Real Estate Practice comprises a group of partners, complemented by talented counsel and associates, who have practiced as an integrated team for 15-25 years. The group’s reach and bench strength are demonstrated by our work on some of New York’s most recognizable and important projects, including redevelopment of the World Trade Center site, the development of Moynihan Station, and major capital expansions at the American Museum of Natural History. With experience in zoning, land use, development, construction, conveyancing, ground and space leasing, financing, public funding, condominiums, government approvals, and other crucial areas, Venable’s team can offer fully integrated and innovative solutions to clients embarking on New York’s most complex development projects. The efficiency and strategic advantage we bring to all of our mandates are reflected in our client loyalty and our impressive track record of deal closures. We approach complex transactions by fully immersing ourselves in the needs and goals of both our clients and their counterparties. This allows us to find common ground and to reach solutions that protect our clients’ interests as we move their deals forward to successful closings.
