Help Remodeling prewar building

Hi Everyone -

Long time lurder, First time poster.

I bought a large studio in a prewar building at 175 Eastern Parkway. I had lived in the apartment for 6 years and our building went coop. Due to years of rental tenants, the place needs a full make-over, especially the kitchen and bathroom.

I'm looking for a General Contractor. Can anyone recommend someone reputable?

We're also trying to renovate the bathroom and kitchen in traditional prewar building style if u have any suggestions for sources, it would be appreciated.

thx.
Paul
