Sciame was the Construction Manager responsible for the third and final section of the High Line. The Eastern Rail Yard of the High Line runs from 10th avenue to just beyond 11th avenue. It is an expansion of the previous phases and will extend the precast concrete planking, seating elements, metal railings and planting beds filled with grasses, flowers and plants – the elements that define the High Line.
In addition, Eastern Rail Yards feature a Beam Exploration Area where the concrete decking is removed, which allows visitors to walk and interact within the structural steel elements. The 11th avenue bridge ramps up about two feet, giving elevated views up and down 11th avenue, while the Grasslands Grove area features special plantings.
The Western Rail Yards, beginning just west of 11th avenue, preserves the existing self-seeded landscape and allows visitors the opportunity of a direct experience of the grass and wildflowers that inspired the saving of this iconic park.
We at Sciame Construction are thrilled to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our amazing staff who not only cheered on but also fearlessly accepted and triumphantly completed the 3.5-mile J.P. Morgan Corporate Challenge. Thank you once again for your participation and support. #jpmcc
