Project Highlights

Scope of Project: After sustaining extensive damage caused by Hurricane Sandy, FSI was commissioned to engineer all new electrical and mechanical systems as well as waterproofing the structure. 

FSI's Involvement: The two cellar electrical rooms were combined and relocated to the first floor level in what was previously a bicycle room. The Con Edison service was extended from the original service point at 92 Laight Street through a concrete encased duct bank to the new room. In addition, all mechanical equipment was replaced. A dry flood proofing system was designed, comprised of levels of protection with fillable bladders, flood barriers, and an emergency generator connection for twelve dewatering pumps.
