About Morali Architecture
With over 30 years of NYC experience, Morali Architects has set a precedence within the realm of architecture. The principal architect, Anthony Morali R.A., graduated from Pratt Institute and studied abroad in Rome, Italy. Anthony Morali is known for his work on the Rainbow Room in Rockefeller Center and Cipriani (West Broadway, 55 Wall Street, 110 East 42nd Street and in Grand Central Terminal). He also spearheaded the first renovation to the original Bowery Savings Bank (130 Bowery) in over 80 years converting the historic structure into a space used for important social events.
Over the past few decades our organization has diversified it’s expertise to encompass all aspects of the industry while specifically honing our abilities to conform to the intricate codes and regulations of New York City. This includes extensive building code knowledge, approvals/permitting, renovating/restoring historic architecture, bulk regulations and ground-up construction processes.
