David led the $2.5 billion+ development of TSX Broadway featuring a 661-key hotel, retail, a refurbished theatre, signage, and a street-facing stage that is inventing the future of Times Square.

The team refurbished its landmarked interior, preserving the legacy of the Palace while positioning it for the future. The theatre lift unlocked 100,000 s/f of valuable retail and entertainment space.
