03 LEADERSHIP

Adam Joly is the Co-Founder and Managing Director of Igloo, a platform that curates spaces, partners with businesses, and creates experiences rooted in culture and shaped by community. Igloo delivers best-in-class landlord and tenant representation across the project lifecycle. For companies expanding, relocating, or starting up in NYC, Igloo supports end-users with location sourcing, design and construction management, and growth capital.

Under Adam’s leadership, Igloo’s licensed brokerage has closed more than 90 leases totaling over 600,000 SF of commercial space since 2018. Adam brings more than 12 years of NYC real estate development experience, including the acquisition and repositioning of more than 15 ground-up and adaptive reuse commercial projects and the 12th Street plaza designation in LIC – a formerly derelict “parking lot” converted to a vibrant neighborhood destination. Adam is a board member of the Long Island City BID.

A Swiss army knife of creative skills, with 15+ years in construction and design experience, Vincent works as an in-house resource for both landlord and tenant clients, offering spatial analysis, scaled test-fits, design consultation, and project coordination.
