This is largely due to Joseph’s expertise in finding the right time and areas in which to take on a new project. This foresight has made Joseph a leader in improving neighborhoods and cultivating new ones. Examples of this include the PLG residential building in Prospect Lefferts Gardens in Brooklyn and new commercial developments in Hudson Yards and West Chelsea on New York's west side.

Joseph strongly believes in working with the local community, enriching opportunities, and promoting the cultural arts. He is a long-time supporter of The Special Children’s Center, a multi-faceted service program for children and adults with complex developmental disabilities. He is also a supporter of Keshet Eilon, an Israeli music center founded in 1990 that works to foster and promote young string musicians from Israel and abroad.

Joseph also proudly serves on the Board of the The National September 11 Memorial & Museum, a nonprofit established in memory of the victims and heroes of the 9/11 tragedy. He is also on the Board of Governors of the Real Estate Board of New York and was previously on the Board of the Skyline Museum, a part of New York’s Skyscraper Museum.
