Brooklyn’s commercial general contractor

Brooklyn is not one market — it’s dozens. Waterfront loft offices in DUMBO and the Navy Yard. Restaurant rows in Williamsburg and Greenpoint. Brownstone commercial corridors in Park Slope and Cobble Hill. Food production in Bushwick and Industry City. Medical practices and retail on Kings Highway, 86th Street and Flatbush Avenue.

Quedan Construction is a Brooklyn general contractor building offices, retail stores, medical and dental practices, restaurants and commercial kitchens in every corner of the borough. We understand Brooklyn’s building stock — prewar loft buildings, converted warehouses, mixed-use walk-ups and new towers — and the very different challenges each one brings.

Creative and corporate offices

Brooklyn’s office market has grown around Downtown Brooklyn, DUMBO, the Navy Yard and Williamsburg. These spaces often feature exposed timber or concrete structure, large windows and open plans. We build workplaces that keep that character while adding modern HVAC, power, acoustics and technology.

Restaurants, bars and food production

Brooklyn has one of the most competitive restaurant scenes in the world. We build dining rooms, bars and kitchens across North Brooklyn, Park Slope, Carroll Gardens, Crown Heights and beyond — solving exhaust, odor control and gas infrastructure in mixed-use buildings with residential neighbors above. For commissaries and delivery kitchens in Bushwick, Sunset Park and Industry City, we plan heavy exhaust, make-up air, refrigeration and utility upgrades from the start.

Medical, dental and neighborhood retail

From Park Slope and Brooklyn Heights to Bay Ridge, Midwood and Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn’s residential communities rely on local medical and dental practices and retail. We build practices and stores in ground-floor and mixed-use spaces, coordinating plumbing, accessibility and storefront approvals.

Building in Brooklyn’s historic and industrial fabric

Brooklyn has more designated historic districts than almost any other borough, and many commercial projects involve storefronts and exteriors under Landmarks review. At the same time, adaptive reuse of industrial buildings brings questions about structure, fire separation and utility capacity. We evaluate both early, so approvals and existing conditions never derail your schedule.

Projects in Brooklyn

Local know-how

Building & permitting in Brooklyn

Brownstone historic districts

Brooklyn Heights — New York City's first designated historic district — along with Park Slope, Fort Greene, Cobble Hill and others require Landmarks review for storefront and exterior work.

Industrial conversions

Many Brooklyn commercial projects reuse former industrial buildings. Existing structure, floor loads, fire separation and utility capacity need careful evaluation before design.

Mixed-use buildings

Ground-floor restaurants and medical offices often sit below apartments. Kitchen exhaust, odor control, noise and plumbing routes must be planned around residential neighbors.

Utility capacity

Food production and kitchen projects in North Brooklyn and Sunset Park frequently need gas or electrical service upgrades. We start utility coordination in the first weeks.
