Brooklyn, New York
by Denis T. Ambio, CTS North Eastern Sales
Brooklyn, New York, is home to over 2.5 million New Yorkers, being the most heavily
populated of the 5 boroughs, and second in population density only to the borough
of Manhattan. It’s only natural that many live by the mantra “out with the old, and in
with the new.” CITY POINT is a premier retail project in the heart of many of Brooklyn’s growing neighborhoods. According to www.citypointbrooklyn.com “City Point
answers the shopping needs of a diverse group of buyers who have transformed
Brooklyn into the new destination for education, culture, dining, and shopping.”

Casino Development Group was awarded the project, and hired The Presscrete Company to install the vertical tiedowns for an elaborate raker system and heel blocks for
support of excavation. Con-Tech Systems’ TITAN-IBO system was chosen for the ease
of installation and availability of materials.
Presscrete saw a more than 30% increase over a conventional tiedown installation,
saving cost on time and labor. According to Brian Fox, “dealing with the ground conditions in Brooklyn is always unique. The dense ground, mixed with construction debris
presents many challenges. The Titan bar successfully drilled through to the competent bond zones.” The project specifications required design loads of 90 – 140 kips
and average pile depths of 50 – 60 ft. Successful test loads of up to 180 kips were
achieved on site.
CTS would like to thank the longstanding partnership and loyalty of Presscrete and
the new working relationship with Casino.
