Urban Umbrella® is the sole designer, patent holder, supplier, and fabricator of the only city-approved alternative to traditional sidewalk scaffolding and overhead protection on the market. While we are New York City-based, our partnerships allow us to provide our services in any North American city at a moment’s notice.
Our services don't stop there. We also provide modular event staging, pipe scaffolding, and - as part of the Dining Out NYC initiative - roadway restaurant canopies that comply with the newest codes and regulations.
We are currently operational in nineteen markets across the United States and Canada, and are expanding into the UK. Over the last eight years, we have completed 300+ jobs with the world’s top developers, property owners, property managers, brands, and contractors.


The Comparison is Clear
Whereas traditional sidewalk scaffolding is cumbersome, dark, dingy, undesirable, and behind-the-times, Urban Umbrellas are graceful, light, dynamic, stylish, and forward-thinking. When used, they uplift the spaces they are installed to protect instead of detracting from them.
