11th Street Boutique Hotel Construction
Remedial design and construction oversight for an 11-story boutique hotel on a site impacted by petroleum and heavy-metal-contaminated soils, including UST removal and soil management.
Project Overview
This Manhattan boutique hotel development required comprehensive environmental management throughout construction on a site with historical petroleum and heavy metal contamination. Envicon's team provided complete remedial design and construction oversight services to ensure the project could proceed while properly managing environmental risks.
The Challenge
The urban infill site contained petroleum-impacted soils and heavy metal contamination from previous uses, along with an abandoned underground storage tank requiring removal.
