NYS Rising Community Reconstruction on Staten Island
New York City Housing Authority
Staten Island, NY
2015
In the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy, New York State has supported and aided Staten Island through the NY Rising Community Reconstruction and Program to rebuild one- to four-unit homes that were destroyed or substantially damaged by the storm. Tectonic performed a subsurface investigation for over 40 properties affected by the storm. This included borings, recommendations to the structural engineer regarding selection of foundation type and a geotechnical report for each property. Infiltration testing was also performed.
