She has spent over 20 years working within the private development community and understands the requirements to attract capital to a project. She has worked on various site reuse projects, including brownfield redevelopment and historic preservation. She is adept at identifying and selecting sites, zoning and infrastructure analysis, and financial feasibility. In her work in a private capacity, Ms. Nagy has often served as an intermediary to investors, lenders, public agencies, and community stakeholders. This role has allowed her to develop a sense of potential underlying obstacles to a project and how to overcome them as early as possible. Among her most notable projects were transforming a former brewery into luxury apartments, the adaptive reuse of a former hospital campus, and acquiring the former ‘Aud’ stadium site in Buffalo’s Canalside district for redevelopment.
Ms. Nagy also serves the University of Buffalo community as an adjunct professor teaching Market Study and Feasibility in its Commercial Real Estate Development program.
