The Art Students League of New York

Sciame is the Construction Manager responsible for the exterior restoration and MEP upgrades of the Art Students League in Manhattan’s Midtown West. This historic institution, founded in 1875, is run by artists and offers classes and workshops for aspiring artists to study and train with renowned instructors. The organization is located in an area known for its stunning architecture, and landmarks, and as the epicenter of American theater.

The restoration of this landmark structure will be conducted in two phases to ensure that long-term  improvements are made throughout the five-story building. The scope of work includes the rehabilitation of the north and south ninety-foot facade, as well as the replacement and installation of the building’s roof, skylights, glass windows, doors, and masonry repairs throughout the educational institution.

Despite the extensive work required, the art school and gallery space will remain fully operational throughout all construction phases. Sciame is committed to coordinating with The Art Students League to ensure that all interior and exterior work is carried out with minimal disruption to daily operations.
