What New Hudson Facades does

New Hudson Facades is a privately held U.S. architectural cladding contractor that designs, engineers, manufactures, and installs custom curtain wall systems for commercial, mixed-use, healthcare, and institutional buildings. The company was founded in 2014 by winning a debut contract to deliver the facades for three of the five buildings at the Hudson Yards development in New York for The Related Companies, an account that anchored its early reputation. Operations are vertically integrated through a company-operated 180,000-square-foot manufacturing facility that produces approximately one million square feet of curtainwall per year, supported by regional offices in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Washington D.C., Denver, and Minnesota.

The company serves building owners, real estate developers, and general contractors on complex, design-intensive projects. Its customer base spans marquee commercial developers (The Related Companies, Silverstein Properties, Riverside Investment & Development), tier-1 general contractors (Turner Construction, Clark Construction, Hensel Phelps, AECOM Tishman, Lend Lease), and named institutions across entertainment (Disney, Warner Brothers), healthcare (Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Jefferson Health), banking (JP Morgan Chase), and nonprofit (Barack Obama Foundation) verticals. Architecture partners include Foster + Partners, SOM, Gehry Partners, Kohn Pedersen Fox, Gensler, Heatherwick Studios, and others. Pricing is project-specific and not publicly disclosed; revenue is generated through one-time, project-based construction contracts.

NHF employs 251-500 people and runs as an enterprise field-sales motion, acquiring work through direct relationships, project portfolio showcasing, and reputation rather than mass marketing. Leadership combines deep industry tenure (20-30+ years in glass and glazing) with recently added CFO, General Counsel, and HR functions, suggesting an ongoing transition from founder-led contractor to institutionally managed specialty facades platform. The company reports no active mergers, acquisitions, or outside funding rounds, and operates as an independent entity.
