KPG’s Gregory Kraut Named to Board of Soho Improvement District

Gregory Kraut, co-founder and CEO of KPG Funds, a Soho-based commercial real estate investment firm has been appointed to the board of Soho Broadway. The neighborhood improvement district is dedicated to improving the downtown neighborhood from Broadway to Canal Street. 

Kraut joins other board members that include Class A property owners, commercial tenants, residential tenants and government representatives including Mayor Eric Adams and Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine. 

“I look forward to working alongside other community leaders,” said Kraut. “At KPG we are also dedicated to making Soho a welcoming place to live, work and visit,” having acquired and repositioned several properties in the neighborhood. “Soho Broadway does so much to keep the community clean, safe and a special neighborhood for all.” 

Founded in 2014, KPG’s business model is to purchase aging but architecturally significant buildings and convert Class B and C office space into Class A.
