Summit Development is a diversified real estate development company based in Southport, Connecticut. Since our founding in 1981, Summit has developed a reputation as an innovative developer that has prospered through strategic purchases of well-located assets in our primary markets of Connecticut and the New York metropolitan area. While Summit has broad experience in many areas of commercial and residential real estate development, our particular focus has been on redevelopment and repositioning of existing undervalued assets.

Felix T. Charney founded the company in 1981 with the purchase and renovation of a small Victorian home in Westport, Connecticut. 26 years later, Summit has developed over 60 projects representing over four million square feet of commercial space and over 1000 residential units, with a combined market value of over $700 million.
