As part of a design/build team, which included ECCO III Enterprises and Hardesty & Hanover, LHP upgraded four NYC subway stations on the Eighth Avenue Line (W. 72nd Street, W. 86th Street, W. 163rd Street/Amsterdam Avenue, and Cathedral Parkway/W. 110th Street.) The work was done under NYC Transit Authority’s Enhanced Station Initiative (ESI).
The Enhanced Station Initiative is a rehabilitation program undertaken by the NYC Transit Authority with the objective of transforming existing stations into modern and sophisticated transit facilities that are safe, forward-thinking, and user-friendly. The objectives of the projects are to improve the reliability, capacity, and customer experience inside the subway system.
