Project Name: Hudson Piers
Address: 159 Alexander St, Yonkers, NY 10701
Building Type: Residential
Project Type:New Construction
Scope of Work
The Hudson Piers project represents a forward-thinking approach to contemporary residential construction. As part of the new development, our team was responsible for the installation of high-performance rainscreen cladding systemsdesigned to elevate both aesthetics and environmental resilience.
These systems were chosen for their durability, energy efficiency, and modern architectural appeal. The work included the meticulous coordination of sub-framing, vapor barriers, insulation, and exterior panels—ensuring proper ventilation, thermal regulation, and long-term structural protection for the residential units.
Challenges and Solutions
Executing a rainscreen system in a large-scale residential build required detailed planning and precision. Our challenge was to coordinate efficiently with other active trades on site, ensuring seamless integration of the cladding without delaying the overall construction timeline.
Weather conditions presented another layer of complexity, especially given the building’s proximity to the Hudson River. We implemented phased installation and weatherproofing techniques to maintain momentum while protecting the building envelope throughout the process.
Collaboration and Project Management
Our team worked in close collaboration with the general contractor, architects, and site supervisors to ensure all cladding specifications were met with exacting standards. Regular inspections and quality control checkpoints were integral in maintaining progress and safety across all stages of the project.
From procurement to final panel placement, our project managers ensured timelines, budgets, and workmanship remained aligned with the overall vision of Hudson Piers as a modern, high-quality residential development.
Outcome and Impact
Hudson Piers stands as a vibrant residential destination that reflects the evolving landscape of Yonkers’ waterfront. The rainscreen cladding not only contributes to the building’s sleek and contemporary design but also offers long-term protection and energy performance for residents.
With its elevated exterior detailing and commitment to quality, the Hudson Piers project adds significant value to the local community and sets a benchmark for new residential developments in the region.
