From the latest Construction Update: a planned weekend West Tower Crane Jump on Dean Street, plus Con Ed work

The latest Atlantic Yards/Pacific Park Construction Update (bottom), covering the two weeks beginning Monday, Sept. 6 (but presumably not including work on that holiday), was circulated Thursday Sept. 2 at 4:52 pm (lead time) by Empire State Development (ESD) after preparation by Greenland Forest City Partners.

After the East Tower Crane Jump for the two-tower B12/B13 (615 Dean/595 Dean) complex on the project's southeast block, coming on the weekend of Sept. 11 or Sept. 18 will be a West Tower Crane Jump, with work 7 am to 3 pm. If bad weather, though, it may be performed on a weeknight, from 6 pm to midnight.

Staging of trucks and equipment will occur on Pacific Street, behind the towers, with no impact to traffic on Dean Street.

Also on that block, Con Edison may be on site to install interconnection feeder cables between vaults. Parking on Dean Street in front of the East Vault may be reduced by approximately five to six parking spaces for a few days.

After-hours work continues

Regarding after-hours work at B4 (18 Sixth Ave.), the Construction Update accurately lists weekday work 5 am to 10 pm and Saturday work 9 am to 5 pm. It states that there can be Sunday work 9 am to 5 pm, but no permits are listed yet.

Regarding after-hours work at B15 (662 Pacific St.), the document accurately cites weekday work 6 am to 10 pm and Saturday 9 am to 5 pm, and Sunday work 9 am to 5 pm.

Regarding after-hours work at B12 & B13, the document accurately states weekday work hours are 6 am to 6 pm. It also says Saturday work can be from 9 am to 5 pm, though no permit has been issued yet. 

Unmentioned in the previous update (nor a supplement): after-hours work 6-10 pm Thursday Sept. 2 and Friday Sept. 2 for installation of a temporary standpipe, said to have minimal noise impact.

Remember, such after-hours work allows the developers to meet their schedule. That takes priority over neighborhood impacts.
