Company

With a roster of more than 15 active projects, representing over $2 billion of capital, LMXD operates as an entrepreneurial investment/development enterprise within the larger platform of L+M companies. It is a growing company with a focus on culture, community, and sustainability, and a deep commitment to creating civically impactful development projects that are successful not only for our investors but for our communities, residents and other engaged partners (be they a theater, a museum or not-for-profit institution.) While LMXD partners with L+M Builders to construct many of its large New York projects, the company is increasingly active in other cities in the Northeast (e.g. New Haven, New Rochelle, Newark, Philadelphia and Washington D.C) and is seeking to expand its capacity to effectively work with and oversee third-party construction partners.
