MAG Partners, led by CEO MaryAnne Gilmartin, has achieved a significant milestone in addressing New York City’s housing needs with the topping out of two new residential towers. These developments will provide nearly 400 units of mixed-income housing and are expected to have a positive impact on the city’s affordable housing market.
