770 House / 7th and Jackson Resiliency Park

OVERVIEW
Langan was part of a design and construction team completing the investigation, demolition, remediation and design of a two-city block redevelopment in northwest Hoboken. Our team implemented the design of a cloud-based outlet control into the stormwater management system for this project, which is located in a coastal city faced with the challenges of global climate change and the impacts of frequent localized flooding, as well as catastrophic-scale flooding issues.

The project includes a large, mixed-use residential building with 424 residential units, approximately 26,000 SF of commercial space, and a parking deck with 415 parking spaces for shared use by residents and the general public. The project also includes three major public areas: a brand new public gymnasium, a public park with open green spaces and a children’s play area, and a public plaza designed for public programming and activities.

Newark Downtown Redevelopment – Prudential Center

OVERVIEW
Located in the center of downtown Newark, the Prudential Center site previously included  the Four Corners Historic District and the Old First Presbyterian Church Cemetery, which was converted to a parking lot a parking lot in the 1950s. The project entailed historic research for the property to determine the usage of the property; submitting an Application for Project Authorization to demolish three buildings which were part of the Four Corners Historic District; conducting Historic American Building Surveys on these buildings as part of the resolution; monitoring for human remains during the demolition of the Central Railroad of NJ station as part of the resolution; and exploratory trenching in the former cemetery to determine if any human remains were still interred. Monitoring uncovered 2 sets of human remains and trenching uncovered an additional 40 sets of remains. This resulted in a Phase III Archaeological Data Recovery to remove all human remains still interred in the former cemetery. A group of 60 archaeologists, headed by Langan, worked for 9 weeks identifying and removing over 2,300 sets of remains and associated artifacts.
