The KPF Principal will draw on projects such as 245 Park Avenue to unpack how owners decide between capital upgrades, repositioning, and new development.
In the panel “Capital Improvement Projects & Conversions: Upgrading Assets to Drive Profitability,” Andrew will discuss how design decisions—reimagining lobbies, amenity spaces, and building entry sequences—shape the tenant experience and determine whether a capital upgrade increases value.
Andrew will be joined by fellow panelists Robert Schiffer, EVP, Development at SL Green Realty; Joey Chilelli, Partner at Vanbarton Group; and Alexandra Schmidt, VP & General Manager, Interiors at Turner Construction Company. The panel will be moderated by Farshad Morè, Partner at Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher.
