Due to the continuation of water service work and the installation of new fire, electrical, and hot and chilled water service into the building, MacDougal Street is scheduled to be closed between West 4th Street and West 3rd Street from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, Monday to Saturday, starting on or about January 21, 2010.

The closure will be for approximately 8 weeks. The eastern sidewalk will be open to pedestrians. The daily street closure will permit the contractor to work safely and efficiently in the street.

Project Update

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 13:36:03 -0500

During the month of November, the concrete structure of the buildings will be poured. Weather permitting, the pour of each floor will take approximately one week. NYU will continue to work at the street to tie in water service to the new building. This will require the street to be closed from 8 AM to 4 PM. A pedestrian pathway will be provided on the east side of MacDougal Street. After 4 PM, the street will be opened.

Late Night Work Scheduled

Thu, 22 Oct 2009 14:17:18 -0500

One day a week for approximately 10 weeks, weather permitting, the contractor will be working until between 8:00 PM and 12:00 AM to trowel newly poured concrete.

This one day per week will coincide with the day of the concrete pour of each slab level. When the pour is complete and while the concrete is still wet, a gas powered trowel machine will be used to make the slab smooth and level before the concrete has begun the curing process.

Please note that the completion time is temperature driven. Warmer the weather will allow for an earlier completion time. In colder temperatures, it will take longer. Temporary heating units will be used when the temperature drops to expedite the work.

The basement slab is scheduled to be poured on Wednesday, October 28, 2009.

Daily Street Closure

Thu, 15 Oct 2009 17:37:35 -0500

In order to install new service off the existing water main, which runs approximately center and parallel to MacDougal Street, MacDougal Street (from West 4th to West 3rd Street) will be closed beginning no earlier than October 26, 2009, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, Monday to Saturday.

Sidewalk access on the east side of street will be maintained at all times. NO impact to the water service to the adjacent neighbors is anticipated. Neighbors directly south of 133-139 MacDougal Street will be able to back up their cars to the front of their property. At the end of each work day - after 4:00 PM - steel plates will be placed over the pit to allow street access.

Work is expected to take approximately two weeks.
