Andrew is the Managing Partner of Buttonwood Development, which he founded in 2005. The Company focuses on real estate development, investment, and syndication in New York City. Under his leadership, Buttonwood successfully developed Greenwich Club Residences, a 452-unit condominium conversion located at 88 Greenwich Street. The property emerged as downtown Manhattan’s most successful condominium development, achieving a complete sell-out generating over $340 million in residential sales. Buttonwood has also participated in the development of additional properties throughout Manhattan, including the assemblage, planning, and sale of Sundari Lofts and Tower, a proposed 26-story luxury condominium at 158 Madison Avenue, and the gut renovation, repositioning and marketing of One Rector Park, a 174-unit condominium development in Battery Park City, which is now over 60% closed.

Andrew is also the founder, owner, and former CEO of Town Residential, one of Manhattan’s leading real estate services firms. Under his leadership, Town Residential grew to ten offices housing a team of over 541 licensed representatives and staff. By providing both its clients and its representatives with exceptional service and a wealth of resources, Town has been committed to redefining the way luxury real estate services companies operate and deliver high quality services to its clients.
