Scope
Michels was construction manager for a project which included construction of the 38th Street ventilation facility, trail track tunnels and cross passages, Grand Central Terminal interlocking caverns, portions of the Grand Central Terminal main station caverns, escalator shaft interfaces and access tunnels. Michels completed fit-out of the 38th Street ventilation facility and Grand Central Terminal 1 & 2 interlocking caverns, construction of duct bench/walkway in the tail track tunnels, and street and sidewalk restoration. In addition, many of the architectural finishes such as CMU walls, stainless steel doors, fire rated roll-up doors, handrails, gratings, hoistways, painting, and signage were installed after the structures were complete. Electrical components and conduit were installed in the structure and duct benches were installed throughout the tunnels. Track and structure drainage was also installed throughout the project.
