Power Plant & Pods Phase Percentage Completion: 8%
Project Start: Q4 2019
Anticipated Completion: Q4 2022
Ongoing Activities:
• Continued installation of new underground utility lines by buildings 1W, 2W, and 3W, 5E
o New utility lines will be installed throughout the site and will connect to the new utility pods to provide all Red Hook buildings with heat, hot water, and backup electricity
• Installation of underground retention tanks by building 4E
o The underground retention tanks will capture excess stormwater runoff to help prevent flooding during periods of heavy rainfall
o The retention tanks by buildings 2W and 3W were successfully installed and backfilled
Upcoming Activities:
• Excavation for and instillation of new underground electrical, heating, and plumbing lines between buildings
o This work will involve reconfiguring the building exits, however, access to all buildings will remain open and ADA-accessible at all times
o Buildings 1E, 2E, 3E, 4E, and 15 through 18 will be the first buildings affected by this work
o Residents will be notified in advance via flyers and phone calls once a start date is established
o These plans have been shared with property management, resident association presidents, and the FDNY
• Drilling of foundation piles for the new utility pods (small buildings) by building 2E, 4E, and 1W (West Pod)
o The piles will form the foundation of the new utility pods
o The utility pods will house critical electrical and mechanical equipment above the flood elevation to better protect building services during a flood event.
• Full demolition of building 28 (590 Clinton Street)
o The Red Hook East Plant will be constructed in its place to house standby generators and boiler equipment above the flood elevation
