About
We are a group of planners, builders and inventors drawing from our backgrounds in hospitality, fitness, tech, and amenity management to create lifestyle and wellness programs of the future.
What drives us is our passion for connecting people to other people. Our approach to amenity management and lifestyle design is built around creating connection and community - within cities, neighborhoods, and buildings.
At URBN Playground, we design experiences, lifestyles, and memories that create a deeper sense of community and well-being for every person we touch.
Our Story
Co-founders Jeremy Brutus, an industry veteran with over 15 years of experience including mega-hotel projects in Dubai, and Amy, a prolific fitness guru and celebrity trainer, met while working in the hospitality and fitness industry and connected over a shared vision.
URBN Playground was founded out of that vision - to see amenities become more than just functional spaces, but places that inspire people and build community.
“In today’s competitive market, buildings are being designed with pet spas, rock climbing walls, salt rooms, wine rooms, and coffee bars. Yet amid all these investments, another crucial yet often overlooked amenity is neglected – the service that occurs within these spaces.”
— Jeremy Brutus, CEO & Co-Founder of URBN Playground
A service-first mindset
Today, URBN Playground is a team of owners/operators with more than 25 years of experience in amenities management. We are dedicated to providing unrelenting customer service, cutting-edge programming and seamless operations to distinguish our clients’ properties from the rest. We started this company because we wanted to do things differently, but more importantly, because we wanted to do them right. If there is an issue at any of the locations we serve, a senior manager is never more than a phone call away.
URBN Playground places extreme importance on the client experience, and it is our mission to deliver unrelenting customer service. Join us in creating a new kind of residential and office experience - one that inspires, energizes, and connects people in meaningful ways.
“A person looking at a new or existing rental or condo is choosing a lifestyle, rather than a cold unit of space. This involves interactions that are unique, memorable, positive, and personal. Such interactions are the hallmarks of what URBN Playground does, drawing from our background in hospitality and infusing it into the work we do.”
