Gowanus Canal Waterfront Projects

Langan is providing marine consulting services at various private properties along the Gowanus Canal. The canal is a Superfund site on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) National Priorities List, and all designs must accommodate ongoing cleanup activities. Our scope includes above- and below-water inspections, including subsurface exploration, for the evaluation and replacement of bulkhead structures. Each bulkhead replacement design is customized to the proposed development and site conditions, and all work activities require extensive coordination with the EPA. We are also performing construction inspection services.
