Ryan Esparza AIA, CPHC has been at C+GA for almost three years and has worked on multiple shelters and community centers involving government agency oversight. He is involved in space planning for projects in their early stage all the way through to CDs and construction.
Ryan’s experience includes but is not limited to, new capacity and renovation projects with the NYC School Construction Authority, single-family and multi-family residential exterior restoration and interior renovation, and high-profile fast-paced commercial projects. These completed projects are of varying size, ranging from under 5,000 SF to over 80,000 SF. Ryan brings a design sensitivity to working in existing buildings that is essential to our team. He is an expert in building envelope restoration, and recently managed the transformation of FOUND Study Midtown East, a hotel conversion project that turned 763 hotel rooms into 307 student apartments, as well as the landmarked Harlem River Houses, a new 194-unit family-focused shelter with daycare and support services.
