2023 Project of the Year went to the Repair Contractor: Structural
Built in 1962 for the Holland America Cruise Line, Pier 40 is the largest pier in Manhattan and serves multiple functions within Hudson River Park. Pier 40 generates income needed for the Park’s continuing care and operations through a large public parking garage and excursion vessels. Pier 40 also provides essential public recreational functions, including a large athletic field complex, Hudson River Park’s River Project Wetlab, as well as New York City’s only outdoor Trapeze School which is located on the rooftop. For five years, however, the south section of Pier 40 had to be closed due to deteriorating conditions observed at the structure. This section of the pier encompasses approximately 180,000 square feet, including parking, spread over two levels. Closing this area down prioritized the safety of visitors, but ultimately hurt the bottom line. Repairs were needed to allow the Park to resume earning its full potential of revenue again. To fully define the repair scope and reopen this section of the pier, an investigate-design-build approach was utilized to determine the root cause of the deterioration and develop a comprehensive solution. Repairs consisted of new roofing assemblies, structural plank replacement and repairs, concrete repairs to the pitching and wearing slabs, installation of new waterproofing system, and installation of a new sport field. Through this collaborative approach, the garage at Pier 40 could be reopened safely while prioritizing project cost and schedule. Repair Contractor: Structural 2022 Project Awards: Project of the Year After an inspection of Consolidated Edison Headquarters in September of 2017, needed areas of repair of the masonry building became evident. Numerous challenges were experienced by the project team on this building starting with a deteriorated section of the cast iron window mullion falling onto a setback roof. Though challenges were faced, the project team accomplished these repairs utilizing methods including suspended scaffolding, mast climbers, system scaffolding, and even rope access methods. The Consolidated Edison Headquarters project presented a full display of excellent collaboration & response to considerable challenges with an emphasis on safety.
