Projects That Define Urban Craftsmanship

We renovated the entirety of the landscape at Peter Cooper Village in New York City, from 1st Avenue to Avenue C and from 20th to 23rd Street in 2012. In the initial phase of the project, we began with segmented demolition. We added soil amendments, closely supervising the process of planting trees, shrubs and perennials. We provided irrigation and installed lush lawns and fencing while remaining respectful to the community’s residents.
Shortly after this renovation, superstorm Hurricane Sandy hit the tristate area, the East River engulfing our gorgeous new renovation at Peter Cooper Village. In the spirit that has defined Greengage for over half of a century, we rolled up our sleeves and restored the project back to its initial beauty.
At the Giovanni, a luxury apartment development in Brooklyn, Greengage developed everything from outdoor living spaces to street-level and rooftop gardens. We installed custom fiberglass planters and 180 yards of lightweight green-roof soil; planted trees, shrubs and perennials; and implemented irrigation systems. For the past four years, we have maintained the property’s street-level and terrace gardens, in addition to seasonal planting beds for residential interest and beautification of property.


At the Margo, a luxury residential building in Brooklyn, we:
• Installed the structural framework and green-wall modules
• Planted allotment gardens with recycled plastic lumber
• Installed an aluminum edging on top of cast-in-place concrete curbs
to contain soil for a lush sod lawn
• Installed stainless steel cables fastened to a brick wall created
a trellis to support floriferous climbing roses
• Used custom fiberglass planters
• Planted trees, shrubs and perennials blooming on the third-floor setback.
For four years, we have been committed to the landscape maintenance of the Margo’s greenwall and setbacks, in addition to maintaining the planting beds with seasonal color and design refreshes—embellishing while preserving the prestige of the building. Greengage transformed the Margo’s outdoor space into a modern urban garden that captivates residents and passersby alike.
Greengage completed the rooftop and terrace landscape build at The Eagle, a 33-story residential development in Downtown Brooklyn. The project included forming planting beds with cast-in-place concrete curbing and aluminum edging, then installing a curated mix of greenery and functional outdoor features.

Highlights included certified-organic vegetable gardens, recycled plastic lumber planters for allotment gardens, dog-friendly synthetic turf at ground level, and a 450-foot privacy screen built with aluminum posts and cumaru. The finished rooftop garden delivers elevated views while supporting the building’s sustainability-focused design.


Greengage completed a full landscape renovation at St. Paul’s Chapel, restoring and upgrading the grounds with new imported brownstone walkways, bluestone pathways, benches, irrigation improvements, erosion checks, soil amendments, and new plantings. The work included overnight tree installations and careful execution using Greengage’s proven methods.

Because of the chapel’s deep connection to 9/11 recovery efforts, the project carried major emotional and historical weight. Our team approached the site with the highest level of respect, care, and attention to detail throughout the renovation.
Juan Pablo Duarte Square Park, often referred to as Duarte Square, is a wonderful triangular park in Lower Manhattan that Greengage is honored to have worked on. The scope of our work includes everything from the demolition of the site, removal of existing planting to the installation of NYC curb trees, planters and NYC Department of Transportation-approved asphalt with thermo-plastic paint.
We painted hopscotch, checkers, and various children’s street games, encouraging sports and recreational activities in the community. Our crew planted shrubs and perennials throughout, as well as raised planting beds. Today, Duarte Square is a place of respite within the hustle and bustle of city life and we are proud to have contributed to its beauty and the sense of community it inspires.


Built on the site of an iconic Manhattan flea market, One Great Jones Alley is a luxury boutique residential condominium in New York City’s NoHo neighborhood. Greengage installed custom-built exotic wood planters; planted trees, shrubs and perennials; installed corten steel constellation walls, installed custom benches and water features with stainless steel scuppers, in addition to irrigation.
Everything in the world that is beautiful displays contract. The English ivy against the corten steel wall exemplifies contrast in its finest form. We have maintained this property to not only keep with the initial design intent but provided pruning to insure both the aesthetics and privacy of the residents for their outdoor patio space. On the upper tier terraces a manicured appearance was provided by our team as a key to give residents the park-like feel in a heavy traveled section of Brooklyn.


At Ocean Dreams, a beachfront, Miami-style building, Greengage proudly transformed the outdoor amenity space. We formed and poured concrete curbs and filled planting beds with 900 cubic yards of lightweight greenroof soil.
To expedite the process, we utilized two blower trucks simultaneously and boomed up all materials—trees, shrubs, grasses, sod and synthetic turf. We built a pergola, a bocce court, exercise and recreational equipment, an outdoor kitchen, a life-size chess board and a putting green.
