•Provide on-site parking,
•Demolition of existing buildings, including Hammett Pavilion, Building 6, and various existing site improvements;
•Renovation and selective demolition of 60,000 gross sq. feet including portions of the existing Main Building and Tower Building; and
•Build a new permanent flood mitigation structure (s) (e.g. flood wall) around the campus.
NYCEDC has contracted with NBBJ to lead the design effort for all contract documents associated with the Services.
