Scope Of Work
Turner provided the New York School Authority (SCA) with construction services for a 55,706 square foot addition to P.S. 101K, the Verrazano School in Brooklyn, New York. The addition, which includes the construction of ten classrooms, various ELA facilities, administrative offices and a kitchen/cafeteria was while the elementary school remained fully operational.
To safeguard the students and faculty's schedules, the project team built a strong relationship with the Principal, who revised the school’s summer hours to accommodate major scopes of work. Additionally, the school’s small footprint presented the team with limited space for staging materials. To overcome this, the team met with major subcontractors and devised a plan to sequence the work in such a manner that made efficient use of what little laydown space was available.
