Galaxy General Contracting Corp., celebrating over 40 years in the industry, is a prominent player in the real estate development sector of New York City and New Jersey. Founded in 1981, the company has successfully developed and managed a plethora of residential and commercial properties across all five boroughs and into New Jersey. With a commitment to providing quality low to moderate income housing, Galaxy has rehabilitated or constructed over 250 buildings, which amount to more than 8,000 housing units, including single-family homes and multi-family apartment buildings. A significant part of their portfolio includes extensive gut-renovation projects, with over 90 completed to date.
In order to expand and diversify its services, Galaxy established Galaxy G.C. Group LLC in 2008, which concentrates solely on construction management. Meanwhile, Galaxy General Contracting Corp. continues to focus on real estate development. The company collaborates closely with various public and private agencies, along with individual property owners, to realize community-driven projects. Many of the initiatives have received funding from notable organizations including the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), the NYC Housing Development Corporation (HDC), and the Community Preservation Corporation (CPC).
Notably, in the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy, Galaxy was selected as one of just three contractors to participate in New York’s Build it Back program. This initiative aimed to rebuild homes and assist families displaced by the storm, showcasing Galaxy's commitment to community restoration and resilience. As they look to the future, Galaxy General Contracting Corp. continues to play a vital role in shaping New York's skyline by building unique and affordable living spaces.
