General Contractor

Hurricane Sandy left this 34 story building with the ground floor and subsequent 2 floors (below grade) under water, thereby destroying the primary and secondary electrical distribution services. F&S was hired to provide the necessary civil support to rebuild the electrical infrastructure and ultimately minimize future threats to the electrical distribution system by moving the majority of the electrical distribution equipment to the 2nd floor, located directly adjacent to occupied tenant areas.

F&S built a new switchgear room on the 2nd floor and relocated all Con Edison services to the 2nd floor. This required steel support of new concrete encased service pipes, construction of new shaftways, construction of a new state of the art switchgear room and demolition of existing facilities. The new room as well as the electrical service piping runs were all enclosed in 3/4" thick steel and aluminum with full penetration welded seams to protect current and future tenants from EMF. This work all took place with little impact to an occupied building. Additional incidental work in the building includes, repair and epoxy floor of all mechanical spaces, new concrete sump pit below the sub cellar floor, which is over 50' below grade and various Hurricane Sandy related repairs throughout the building.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
