NYPD BOMB SQUAD BUILDING
Location: Bronx‚ NY
Client: New York Police Department (NYPD)‚ New York City
Department of Design and Construction (NYCDDC)
Architect: Rice+Lipka Architects
Partner: Silman
Services: Geotechnical
OVERVIEW
Located on the southern peninsula of Pelham Bay Park in the Bronx‚ the new NYPD Bomb Squad Building will
replace the unit's existing facilities‚ which were severely damaged during Superstorm Sandy. Langan reviewed the
geotechnical subsurface investigation report prepared by CDM Smith and provided by the New York City
Department of Design and Construction for the Bomb Squad Building. The poor subsurface conditions and the
site lying below the one percent annual flood zone with a base flood elevation of el. 14 posed challenges to the
design of the foundation. Langan redesigned the foundation system to substantiate uplift force during high flood
levels. Our recommendation produced an economical foundation system to suit the subsurface conditions with
flood resilience capability.
