What recent project, transaction or accomplishment are you most proud of? We recently fixed a leaking basement for an owner in the city. The building was old and its basement would occasionally flood on rainy days. The project team decided to install a large precast sump pit and a network of internal subsurface drainage lines to collect the water and pump it outside. I led LERA’s design team in designing the sump pit, its coordination with the existing foundations, support of excavation, penetrations through existing walls, slab demo and rebuild. The project was small but highly satisfying for me, as we solved a tricky problem for a client in need!
