Fulton Street Transit Center
Challenges Solved
The Fulton Center, located at the intersection of Fulton Street and Broadway in Lower Manhattan, is a state-of-the-art transit hub that connects six individual subway stations serving 11 subway lines, and links the existing Fulton Street station to the World Trade Center.
MRCE developed the concept for excavation support and designed anchored secant pile walls for construction of the underground pedestrian tunnel and concourse, and steel pile underpinning to support the existing subway structures. MRCE designed the underpinning systems which allowed construction of a new pedestrian concourse below the existing subway and the historic 19th century Corbin Building. The Fulton Street Transit Center was named “Top Project of the Year for 2015” by ENR magazine.
