The Fulton Street Transit Center is one of the major subway reconstruction projects in New York City.

Furthermore, the TA plans to build a new above ground Transit Terminal. On this project a joint venture between Parsons Brinckerhoff and Bovis Lendlease formed the consultant construction management team to support the TA with the tasks of constructability review, bid packaging and site supervision. Figure 1: Subway Lines around Fulton Street in Lower Manhattan Early on in the project the CCM team decided to build a 3D/4D model of the project to visually support the necessary engineering decision making.
