Magnusson Architecture and Planning

Oversized storefronts and walk-ups define this stretch of midtown Manhattan. Here you’ll find Magnusson Architecture and Planning, a studio that quietly shapes spaces behind the scenes. Designers specialising in adaptive reuse slide into tight projects where every square foot sparks a challenge. Their scope cuts across residential, commercial, and institutional work; renovations sit beside new construction, and façade studies appear between planning reviews.

The office is tucked beside garment lofts and legal suites at 42 W 39th St, New York, NY 10018. You won’t spot it from the street until you’re done with the elevator ride up. Studios like this often juggle approvals in multiple boroughs while dodging sidewalk sheds downtown; the firm’s local rhythm helps keep projects moving without a hitch.

(212) 253-7820 is how you reach them when the next conversion or expansion kicks off. They’ll pencil in the site visit quick, ensure the drawings queue up for the next board meeting, and still carve out time for zoning puzzles that arrive with tight deadlines.
