Manhattan, NY Shawmut Design and Construction, a leading $1.6 billion national construction management firm, welcomed partners and industry leaders in commercial real estate and design to the recently Shawmut-renovated The Peninsula New York at the luxury hotel’s rooftop bar, Pen Top. The appreciation event recognized the vital role partnerships have played as the firm grows its market share in large-scale, complex, and innovative projects across New York.

“We were delighted to welcome and thank our partners, whose trust and collaboration are integral to building spaces that educate, heal, inspire, entertain, and support our communities,” said David Margolius, executive vice president of Shawmut’s New York Metro region. “It was a great opportunity to reflect and celebrate all we’ve accomplished together, and look forward to the year ahead as we anticipate another significant growth year in 2025.”
