Three JLG 1850SJ Ultra Boom lifts are in New York City to work on the highest reaches of the Oculus, the new transportation building that will serve the reborn World Trade Center complex and all of lower Manhattan.
When it opens in 2015, the 800,000-sq.-ft. facility for rail, bus, and taxi services will see an estimated 200,000 commuters and thousands of tourists pass through its doors daily.
The building is being built by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. Its contractor is Skanska USA.
The three machines were being used on decorative spires atop of the building.
Lift & Access is part of the Catalyst Communications Network publication family.
