Stellar Management

Stellar Management was founded in 1985 by Laurence "Larry" Gluck and is headquartered in Manhattan. In more than four decades it has built a portfolio of roughly 100 properties and over 12,000 rental apartments. The firm’s holdings span a wide range of NYC neighborhoods - from Upper West Side and Harlem walk-ups to newer buildings in Washington Heights - and extend into Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and nearby Westchester. Many of its buildings offer amenity-rich living: tenants typically enjoy 24/7 doorman or concierge service, on-site fitness centers, rooftop terraces and shared lounge spaces, with leasing handled directly by Stellar on a no-fee basis.

Stellar’s portfolio also includes commercial and mixed-use projects across the city. For example, The Willard at 252 West 76th Street is a landmark Upper West Side building that Stellar has renovated into modern rental apartments featuring prewar architectural details and contemporary finishes. This Beaux-Arts property offers a staffed lobby, fitness center, children’s playroom and a rooftop deck. These projects reflect Stellar’s long-term, community-focused philosophy: the firm emphasizes hands-on management and reinvestment in its properties to create vibrant, sustainable living spaces. For renters, this translates into well-maintained buildings with integrated amenities, no-broker-fee leases and the stability of direct owner-management.
