This project’s original client was the NYS Department of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPR&HP), the buildings’ owners at the time. Care of the buildings was later ceded to the NYS Office of General Services (OGS), with whom Silman held a prime contract.
Silman’s engineers prepared the structural section of a Historic Structure Report and completed repair work on portions of the complex including Building 7, where a corner was stabilized by applying steel strapping and tie backs.
