Yalniz’s expertise in creative engineering solutions has been instrumental in the design of complex, iconic projects such as 111 West 57th, in contention to be the slenderest high-rise in the world; 56 Leonard, also known as the “Jenga building;” One World Trade Center; 432 Park, with its innovative approach to managing wind; 53W53/MoMA Tower; and Central Park Tower. His work for the new Hudson Yards development includes 55 Hudson Yards, 15 Hudson Yards and 3 Hudson Boulevard. His understanding of constructability issues has helped to facilitate seamless design-to-construction project synchronization. He has been instrumental in shaping the modern New York City skyline.

Yalniz’s experience includes work in new concrete and steel structures, as well as rehabilitation of existing structures. He maintains a proficiency in a variety of software packages, and is recognized for his expertise in finite element analysis. He currently serves as a member of the American Concrete Institute (ACI) Committee 375 for the performance-based design of reinforced concrete buildings for wind loads.
