Congratulations to Partner Jonathan Meyers for being named as a City & State’s inaugural Trailblazer in Building & Real Estate!

New York City grapples with significant housing shortages, regulatory challenges, and the pressing need for affordability. City & State’s inaugural Trailblazers in Building & Real Estate honors key players tackling these issues, and we’re thrilled to see Partner Jonathan Meyers recognized among them!

 

With a rich background in both the private sector and government, Jon brings a unique perspective to public-private development and policy work. His experience spans transformative projects like the High Line and his role as COO at the Trust for Governors Island. At HR&A Advisors, he expertly guides clients on complex real estate projects, including innovative office-to-residential conversions and energy efficiency initiatives.

 

As we kick off NYC Climate Week in New York, we also celebrate Jon’s commitment to making the built environment more sustainable, healthy, and resilient for all. His work in this sector spans the country with the Nationwide Initiative to Accelerate Energy Upgrades for Affordable Housing, which provides training and capacity building assistance for awardees of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)’s Buildings Upgrade Prize, to working with the City of New York and the Comptroller to develop a solar program for low and moderate income households in New York City.

 

Join us in celebrating Jon’s contributions and leadership in making New York a more livable and accessible city!
