Got It Done in SoHo. 62 Prince St is now home to the @ray_ban Cafe. Burnham worked with the team to secure a CO alteration for a change of use, adding a cafe to an existing retail storefront. Two uses, one address, one permit team.

A new survey of 500 mayors finds broad agreement that more housing is needed near transit and jobs. Less agreement on how to get there. Worth a read for anyone in AEC watching how policy shapes what gets built. hubs.li/Q04jN-Rr0

Accessibility isn't a box to check. It's a commitment to who gets to use a building. Wider corridors. Compliant restrooms. Accessible routes that don't route people through the back. Buildings should work for all. Not just the median user. #BuildingSafetyMonth2026 #BuiltToLast

The Getty Center is closing in March 2027 for a full campus renovation, reopening spring 2028 ahead of the LA Olympics. Big scope, fixed deadline. A good reminder of why early permitting strategy matters on projects like this. hubs.li/Q04fDp_f0

May is the @IntlCodeCouncil's Building Safety Month. At Burnham, every permit and code consult is about keeping people safe in the buildings they call home. Week 1 is all about safe homes and strong communities. It starts with the code. #BuildingSafetyMonth2026 #BuiltToLast

Complex projects don't usually break down mid-construction. The breakdown starts at the handoff. With Burnham, every project has a single intake process so that never happens. The schedule will thank you later. hubs.li/Q04f5gDG0
