What Broadway Builders does

Broadway Builders LLC is a New York City-based, privately held general contractor and construction manager founded in 2010 as an affiliate of The Hudson Companies. The firm delivers pre-construction services (cost estimating, scheduling, value engineering, site preparation/demolition) and construction services spanning ground-up new construction and renovation/preservation across residential, commercial, industrial, and infrastructure project types. Its work concentrates in NYC affordable housing, supportive housing, homeless shelters, and mixed-use developments, with sustainable-building expertise across LEED, Passive House, Enterprise Green Communities, NYSERDA programs, and solar installations. The company is certified as a Women-owned Business Enterprise (WBE) by New York City and operates from 826 Broadway, 11th Floor, Manhattan.

The firm's revenue model is project-based general contracting and construction management, with fees and contract value earned on ground-up new construction, rehabilitation, occupied renovation, and commercial/retail tenant fit-outs. Pricing is negotiated per project rather than standardized, and the go-to-market is relationship-led: projects are sourced through The Hudson Companies affiliation, repeat institutional clients (Project Renewal, Jericho Project, Rose Companies, Gilbane Development, St. Nicks Alliance), competitive bidding, and pre-qualification on bid lists. Geographic footprint is concentrated in NYC, with stated service to New York State and New Jersey.

The firm reports 50+ employees (7% US veterans), has built or preserved 3,292 affordable and market-rate housing units historically, currently has 2,130 units and 1.88M sq ft under construction, and was ranked #12 in The Real Deal's 2025 NYC Top General Contractors by new building project size, #35 in the Data Book ranking, and listed in ENR's 2025 national Top 100 Green Contractors. There are no disclosed revenue figures, no venture capital or private equity investment, and no public-market listing; Broadway Builders operates as a privately held affiliate under The Hudson Companies umbrella.
