The existing 79th Street Boat Basin consists of timber floating docks, providing 4,125 LF of usable dock space, mostly supported by timber piling. The project site sustained extensive damage as a result of Superstorm Sandy. Subsequent to the storm, A-Dock was reconstructed in 2016 with FEMA funding. The new project proposes replacement and expansion of all other fixed piers, wave screens, and floating docks. The marina includes a Dockhouse of approximately 1,200 SF which contains services for the marina’s patrons and employees. The Dockhouse facility will be enlarged, elevated and reconstructed south of its current location.
