Rivergate

Rivergate

Rivergate is a 706-unit hi-rise luxury rental building located on East 34th Street in Manhattan.  Merritt Engineering developed a program for the restoration of the masonry facades, concrete spandrels, balconies and for the replacement of the roofing systems at the main roof and terrace levels.

MEC inspected 350+ balcony railings to comply with Local Law 11/98 Amended Rule 103-04 (Title 1 of the Rules of the City of New York), which now requires close inspection of the balusters, intermediate rails, and filler panels of all balcony railings on a building to determine whether the railings are safe.
