New Line Structures is a New York City construction management firm working on large commercial and residential projects across the five boroughs, offering preconstruction consultation, construction management, owner’s representation, general contracting and design-build. The firm runs 3D coordination and clash detection in house rather than farming out VDC, which matters on the kind of complex adaptive-reuse work it takes on. New Line is the general contractor on Terminal Warehouse at 261 Eleventh Avenue, the restoration of an 1891 full-block freight warehouse in West Chelsea and the construction of a new six-story office pavilion above it, delivering roughly 1.3 million square feet for L&L Holding Company and its partners. Other projects include 85 Jay Street, Skyline Tower, Halletts Point Building 1, Greenpoint Landing Site D, The Jacx, 108 Leonard Street and The Hub at 333 Schermerhorn Street.
Preconstruction is where New Line puts its weight, and the firm breaks it into discrete deliverables rather than one line item. Site review pairs the team with ownership and the design team to feed constructability and budget input into design development and construction documents. Conceptual budgets are issued in stages and revised as drawings firm up. Critical path method schedules are drafted early and then grown into multi-faceted live documents; the firm’s own position is that losing time on a critical path activity is not acceptable. Materials and labor analysis runs alongside, producing recommendations on building systems as drawings evolve, and plan review and value engineering handle the gap when design and budget diverge.
The staffing model behind that is what makes the in-house VDC claim work. Architects, engineers, design experts and VDC coordinators sit inside the company, so early design resolution, 3D coordination and clash detection happen under one roof instead of being farmed out to a consultant after the fact.
Leadership is compact. Martin Loy is president and chief executive. Glen DiOrio is executive vice president; Chris Delpozzo, Chris Gabb and Hugh Kelly are first vice presidents; Delia Shumway and Raymond Mark are senior vice presidents. Steven Masterson, Jack Vinokurov and Bill Capri are vice presidents, and the field is run by general superintendents Michael Castaldo, Andrew Loftus, Drew Pollard and George Cornish, each carrying a vice president title. Steve White is executive director of health and safety, Lisa Koch directs risk management, Diana Link leads human resources and Bill George is controller.
The published project roster is broader than the headline jobs. Alongside Terminal Warehouse, 85 Jay Street (Front & York), Skyline Tower, Halletts Point Building 1 and Greenpoint Landing Site D, the firm lists 531 Avenue of the Americas, 505 West 43rd Street, 135 West 52nd Street, 234-238 East 23rd Street, 31 East 74th Street, 10 Bond Street, 33 Beekman Street, 515 Ninth Avenue, 250 West Street, 67 Liberty Street and Columbus Square East. The mix runs from ground-up towers through conversions to smaller Manhattan infill sites.
New Line describes its niche as value-add projects in the New York City market and its work model as repeat business, with client satisfaction rather than volume as the stated measure. The office is at 512 Seventh Avenue, 6th Floor, New York, NY 10018, and general inquiries go through 212-280-3019 or newline@newlinestructures.com.
