Sciame was the Construction Manager responsible for the renovation of the existing spaces at 22 Vanderbilt, a 1,000,000 SF office tower located in Midtown Manhattan, the city’s primary central business district.
The multi-phased project included several floors of tech office fit outs, two lobby upgrades, new building entries on Madison Avenue and 43rd Street, and structural upgrades to the building’s existing vaults and sidewalks. After redevelopment, the building now offers various amenities such as Bergamo’s, the building’s cocktail lounge and bar, a coffee shop, full commercial kitchen, wellness center and gym, multiple dining venues, and retail spaces.
Additionally, the project required infrastructure upgrades such as new cooling towers, risers, fire alarm, security, IT systems, and modernization of sixteen elevators. Establishing a detailed logistics plan for each phase of construction ensured that the building remained in operation throughout the duration of the entire project.
We’re turning 50! As we count down to Sciame’s 50th anniversary on June 13th, we’re celebrating the moments that shaped us. For the next 50 days, we’ll be sharing one standout project a day in our “Countdown to 50”.
Thank you to our amazing clients, team, and friends! We wouldn’t be here without you.
