Gramercy Development Companies is a Minnesota cooperative housing developer located in the Twin Cities.

FAMILY LEGACY

Gramercy is a family brand, originally founded by Michael Conlan in the 1990s. Michael was passionate about the cooperative model. As one of its pioneers in Minnesota, Michael was instrumental in making Minnesota the leader in the cooperative market. He instilled the value and importance of high quality, economically attainable housing to his family. Two of Michael’s children, Mick Conlan and Kathleen Conlan Joyce ultimately joined with him as he brought the Gramercy Park and Gramercy Club Cooperatives to a broad range of seniors across Minnesota. Before his untimely passing, Michael and the Gramercy team built 13 cooperatives in Minnesota.

HONORING THE PAST. LOOKING TO THE FUTURE

In 2018, Mick and Kathleen restarted the Gramercy brand with the mission of once again advancing the senior cooperative housing model and continuing the legacy of the work started by their father. Gramercy Development Companies offers a new brand, The American Cooperative, that reflects Gramercy’s extensive history of developing properties that blend design and function to offer owners a stunning and vibrant community. The Conlans’ return to their roots in cooperative housing provides this unique model of senior housing; one which features ownership in a beautiful multifamily setting, democratic control, financial predictability, and a sense of community for its member-owners.
