Transforming a Landmark:
LEADING Sustainable Redevelopment of Warner Bros. Discovery
At KGO GREEN, Inc., we don’t just manage projects — we transform them. Specializing in sustainable design and adaptive re-use, we breathe new life into existing spaces, turning yesterday’s structures into tomorrow’s solutions. With over 30 years of experience across public and private sectors, our work bridges the gap between visionary ideas and practical outcomes. We approach every project as Owners Advocates, assembling expert teams, creating multiple pathways to success, and guiding our clients toward informed decisions. By listening first and applying deep industry expertise, we deliver real-world results that meet schedules, respect budgets, and elevate expectations.
One of our flagship projects, the Warner Bros. Discovery Global HQ exemplifies our approach. This 375,000 RSF, LEED-certified transformation reimagines a historic cast-iron and terracotta landmark in Manhattan’s Flatiron District. Located at Park Avenue South and 19th Street, the 13-story building blends timeless architectural charm with cutting-edge workplace design. We led the project’s program and design management, partnering with an amazing team of architects, engineers, specialists and contractors. The result: a people-focused, agile HQ featuring a landscaped rooftop, new penthouse, café, wellness center, and over 100 interior planters contributing to 3,500 SF of lush biophilic design. The project achieved a 35.92% reduction in indoor water use and received WELL Platinum certification — reflecting our mission to make the old great again, sustainably and with purpose.
