Glenwood Management is a New York City private, multi-generational real estate developer, owner, and management company focusing on multifamily apartment rentals. The company was incorporated in 1961 by father and son, Harry and Leonard Litwin. Glenwood is known for luxury apartment rental buildings with an emphasis on amenities, service, and LEED standard green building. Glenwood's footprint spans the entirety of Manhattan from the Upper East Side to Downtown Tribeca.[1] [2] [3]
Harry Litwin and his son Leonard began their careers in landscaping when they founded Woodbourne Cultural Nursery in Melville, Long Island. In the late 1950s, they ventured into building wood framed multifamily housing on Long Island and the outer boroughs of New York City. Their first large-scale project was in Briar Hill, Riverdale, NY. The property mixed suburban amenities with urban luxury living on a four-acre parcel, which included an Olympic-sized outdoor pool, snack bar, tennis courts, playground, and fitness center. In 1962, Glenwood expanded to Manhattan with the development of the Pavilion, a luxury rental building on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Harry Litwin died during the Pavilion's construction, and Leonard took over management of the construction.[1]
