Urban One

Urban One is a boutique Los Angeles based firm that specializes in the management of complex urban development projects for public and private clients. Whether large or small, our belief is in enabling real estate, infrastructure, and transit projects that create lasting communities. Through years of successful development work we have established a reputation as problem solvers for projects that are complex, controversial or involve numerous, often competing interests. Urban One’s unique cache of experience and talent allows the firm to take full control of projects throughout all phases of development. In total, Urban One’s managing principals have overseen the development of over 76 multi-family and retail projects valued in excess of $2 billion. There are several firms out there that market themselves as Project Managers. However, most of them are only capable of offering the client one particular service, such as construction management or development consultancy. There are very few that offer “true” Project Management services – taking full control of every aspect of your project, from approvals to lease-up. Due to our depth of experience as property owners ourselves, the differentiation lies in our ability to span the entire spectrum of urban development and to genuinely act in the ownership capacity. Our expertise allows us to foresee critical paths in the design, entitlement, permitting, construction, and sale/lease period that individual contractors or consultants don’t have experience handling. The core Project Management services that Urban One makes available to its clients include, but are not limited to, Development Management, Construction Management, and Investor Management.
