The Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS) identifies 6 locations impacted by the new investment, covering specific buildings for façade and roof repairs.
- DCAS lists 3 buildings for facade repairs: 88-11 Septon Boulevard, 26 Central Staten Island, and 253 Broadway.
- For roof repairs, DCAS mentions 60 Center Street, 80 Center Street, and 10 Richmond Terrace among others.
- Removal of about 50% of the scaffolding is estimated, with plans to provide further details to the council.
- The budget cuts may result in project delays, potentially leading to longer periods of scaffolding being up for certain buildings.

I wanted to follow-up on another item that Catherine Rochelman asked about.
1:13:01
There was I think this is for a a for Mister Wagner.
1:13:07
The new needs of 9,700,000 that were in the FY 24 budget and I think it's 590 in FY 25 for emergency for facade and roof repairs.
1:13:18
How many specific buildings does this new really one time investment cover.
1:13:24
Are you able to quantify the number of buildings that will see their scaffolding removed as a result of this investment.
1:13:31
And then on the flip side, just because to be cognizant of time, all the cuts that were just announced subsequently in the Decast Capital Plan, the $1,000,000,000 of cuts, is not going to generate additional scaffolding that is gonna be up for longer periods of time as facade improvements and roof repair projects get delayed.
1:13:52
So if you could just help us on both of those items.
1:13:55
I know it's there's a lot there, but and we're if you could give us the top lines, we would appreciate it.
Dawn M. Pinnock
1:13:59
So definitely as it relates to the 9,700,000.
1:14:03
There are 6 locations that are impacted.
1:14:05
So specifically for facades, it's 88 dash 11 septon Boulevard.
1:14:09
That is also a location where as opposed to scaffolding, we are working on the installation of the netting.
1:14:15
There's also 26 Central Staten Island.
1:14:18
And 253 Broadway.
1:14:20
So that's covered under the facade.
1:14:22
For roof repairs, we have 60 Center Street, 80 Center Street, and 10 Richmond Terrace.
1:14:27
And so while certainly our goal is to try to remove all the shedding, we've estimated that we can probably remove about 50% of that.
1:14:34
But we certainly would fine tune our analysis and circle back to the council with additional information.

So Camilla gets to Chris Marte gets 3, but none for bro.
1:14:43
I knew you were gonna do none for bro.
1:14:45
So
Dawn M. Pinnock
1:14:45
That's perfect.
Lincoln Restler
1:14:46
Just you know, I got to another choice.
Joseph Wagner
1:14:49
Brooklyn or Brooklyn, we have finished 210.
1:14:52
Well, those scaffolds down at 210.
1:14:54
345.
1:14:54
The scaffolding We
Lincoln Restler
1:14:55
deserve real credit at 345.
1:14:57
Thank
Joseph Wagner
1:14:57
you for that.
1:14:58
Got it.
1:14:58
That is finished in.
Lincoln Restler
1:14:59
And 60 will be 360.
1:15:01
What can you tell me?
Joseph Wagner
1:15:02
360 will be started in 2020 in mid 2025 and should be completed by mid-twenty 27.
Lincoln Restler
1:15:09
So by mid-twenty 27, no more scaffolding in front of 360 items because Right.
1:15:13
You know, it was the year I graduated from college that that scaffolding went up.
1:15:16
Is my 40th birthday's coming up.
1:15:19
I'm just saying like it's been a minute.
1:15:20
So okay.
1:15:22
Alright.
