AMIE GROSS ARCHITECTS

We are Amie Gross Architects, and for over forty years we have been bringing community inspired buildings and interior environments to people of all means and needs. Our leadership team along with our colleagues at AGA and a range of engineering and other consultants work on the front lines of the New York City affordability and supply crises. This has turned us into national leaders in the fields of affordable and supportive housing and civic architecture. 

 

Our passion is to create thoughtfully designed, aesthetically rich spaces that further the missions of our clients, whether they be non-profit organizations or private corporations. We understand that every project poses its own unique set of challenges yet, we begin each undertaking with the confidence that the breadth and depth of our experience will enable us to provide high quality solutions, regardless of a project’s size, budget, or complexity. Together we can create spaces that physically embody your organization’s goals.

 

Our built work, research and advocacy are often intertwined and allow us to push the boundaries of urban policy on behalf of our clients, and the people they serve, to create affordable and sustainably built structures that are made to last. We take our inspiration from our clients and their missions and see ourselves as the stewards of their visions for a more inclusive and equitable urban environment.

We look forward to working with you.
