OCV Architects Information

Oaklander, Coogan & Vitto Architects is a versatile, award-winning architectural firm whose mission is to build a more equitable society through responsible, sustainable architecture. We have been serving the New York Metropolitan area since 1986 with innovative new construction, historic and housing preservation work, as well as high-end private residences. Having produced and preserved over 25,000 units of residential housing, the firm regularly partners with public agencies, private developers and community based non-profit groups to create sustainable, attractive residences to traditionally underserved populations within restrictive budgets.

OCV Architects’ commitment to creating high quality, progressive buildings, has been acknowledged in awards ranging from the American Institute of Architects, to the Supportive Housing Network of NY. With a long history of successful rehabilitations, adaptive-reuse and historic preservation work, we have been recognized by the NY State Historic Preservation Office with multiple awards.
