Construction Impacts
In January, February and March you can expect the following:
- Truck deliveries within construction hours. Our team has instructed truck drivers to park only where permitted; not to park in bus stops or crosswalks; not to block deliveries to local businesses; and to follow all applicable NYC regulations regarding idling. We understand that traffic around the site is a concern for residents and businesses, and our team will endeavor to minimize the impact of truck traffic around the site.
- Temporary construction barriers to guide traffic, establish pedestrian paths and promote safety.
- Street parking is available on the west side of Gregory Place. The east side of Gregory Place (adjacent to the development site) is a “No Parking” zone.
- Construction vehicles will access the site via vehicular gates on Fifth Avenue and Gregory Place. Flagmen will be present to help ensure pedestrian safety as vehicles enter and exit the site.
- Seismic monitors on and around the site will report and track vibrations from construction activity in real time and ensure that all activity is within legally allowed limits.
