Langan earns award from ACEC for survey services provided to Moynihan Train Hall redevelopment project
New York, NY Langan has earned a National Recognition Award for exemplary engineering achievement in the American Council of Engineering Companies’ (ACEC) 55th annual Engineering Excellence Awards (EEA) for providing survey services in support of the Moynihan Train Hall Redevelopment Project in Manhattan.
Langan has been involved with the conversion of the former postal facility into a 255,000 s/f transit hub for more than 20 years. The firm continually combined traditional land surveying techniques with new and emerging technologies, such as 3D laser scanning and modeling, to provide designers with precise survey data that helped advance the project from concept to reality.
Langan’s work on Moynihan Train Hall officially came full circle in 2021. The firm prepared final as-built surveys to support space leasing activities, and created an updated version of the original site and facility survey. Similarly, the opening of Moynihan Train Hall created a full-circle moment for the lengthy redevelopment, marking the successful transformation of a landmark building into a modern, efficient facility that serves thousands of commuters and visitors each day.
Langan provides land development engineering and environmental services.
Recognition of all award winners including top winners—20 Honor Awards, 16 Grand Awards and the “Grand Conceptor Award” for the year’s most outstanding overall engineering achievement—will take place during the 2022 EEA Gala, to be held in Grand Hyatt, Washington, DC, on Tuesday, May 24, 2022.
The project is part of 195 entries this year representing engineering excellence from throughout the nation and the world. Judging for the awards program—known industry-wide as the “Academy Awards of the engineering industry”—took place in February and was conducted by a national 27-member panel of built environment leaders, along with experts from government, the media and academia. Award criteria focused on uniqueness and originality, technical innovation, social and economic value, and generating excitement for the engineering profession.
