He was successful in gaining control of the current development site and is credited with creating the original architectural masterplan for the project. Fortelni continues to manage the architectural and design aspects of Forte.

Early in his career Fortelni was a principal in a cement distribution company located in Africa and Saudi Arabia, and also managed the design and construction of large-scale residential subdivisions for the Royal Saudi Commission. In the U.S., Fortelni has developed and managed several residential projects throughout the New York metropolitan area with a focus on the Manhattan and Hamptons submarkets.
