In the latest issue of Commercial Observer, DBI Projects’ own Partner and Senior Director Mariela Abreu authored an op-ed on why Local Law 97 is a good thing for building owners in the long run, despite appearing arduous and expensive at first glance.
Drawing from her years of experience guiding building owners through New York City’s complex regulatory and approvals processes, Mariela lays out the big picture for how the controversial law impacts building owners, tenants, and New Yorkers at large. Acknowledging that new City regulations can be challenging at first, Mariela explains why in this case, the potential benefits of Local Law 97 are powerful drivers.
