Our Highlights

Staten Island Water Siphon

Rockaway Boardwalk Henry J. Carter Our People

Our team of engineers, architects, urban planners, landscape architects, and other professionals are among the best in their fields. We’d like to introduce you to a few team members and the exciting projects they have led.

Kathryn Prybylski

Position: Assistant Vice President, Capital Program Hometown: Brandon, MS Program of Study: Civil Engineering and Urban Design Project: Rockaway Boardwalk

Kathryn is a vital member of the project team simultaneously managing the accelerated opening of two phases in 2015 with design completion and ground breaking on later phases to ensure all 5.5 miles of boardwalk are open in 2016 and are replaced by 2017. The design makes for a sturdier and more resilient public amenity.

The Rockaway Boardwalk has many facets: it fills childhood memories; “it is a hip beach getaway; it is a daily spot for exercise and it is very much a backyard.” Sakiru Okeowo

Position: Senior Project Manager, Capital Program Hometown: Ogun State, Nigeria Program of Study: Civil Engineering and Construction Management Project: Water Siphon

Sakiru was an integral member of the Water Siphon project team that helped ensure the project kept progressing despite complications experienced due to Superstorm Sandy. This tunnel will allow for a backup water main and a deeper harbor so the next generation of mega ships can enter New York Harbor. “The Siphon is an important tunneling project. It feels great building this infrastructure that will serve generations to come.” Cindy Lo

Position: Vice President, Capital Program Hometown: Flushing, Program of Study: Architecture Project: Henry J. Carter Hospital

Cindy played a key role in compressing the design and construction of the Henry J. Carter Specialty Hospital and Nursing Facility to only 26 months to ensure it opened on time. The facility provided over 400,000 SF of new and renovated healthcare space in Harlem.

It’s exciting and inspiring to be a part of “delivering a new state of the art nursing facility and a renovated long-term acute care facility to the City’s healthcare system.” Our Portfolio s s s Affordable Housing Infrastructure Streetscape & Pedestrian Infrastructure Beach 20th Street Plaza Improvements Improvements Improvements 132nd Street Extension & Former Flushing Airport Hunter’s Point South and Bronx Wetland Mitigation Infrastructure & Green Infrastructure Waterfront Park, Phase 2 Atlantic Avenue Extension South Brooklyn New Stapleton Waterfront Rail Improvements Coney Island West 8th Street & Stillwell Avenue Station Lower Concourse s Access Affordable Housing Parks Andrew Haswell Green Park, Jackson Avenue s Buildings and Phase 2b Streetscape, Phase 2 Cultural Facilities Box Street Park South Bronx Greenway ABC No Rio High Line Section 3 Station Plaza Caribbean Cultural Center African Diaspora Institute Hudson Park & Boulevard, Water Street Streetscape Phases 1 & 2 Improvements Downtown Brooklyn Cultural District-South Site Newtown Barge Park West 125th Street Streetscape Improvements El Museo Del Barrio s Resiliency
