The young professionals selected for ENR New York's Top 20 Under 40 list, now in its fourth year, span an array of construction industry regions and market sectors across the tristate region. Several participated on major projects, including the National September 11 Memorial & Museum; Newark Liberty International Airport-Terminal A; the New NY Bridge; the Goethals Bridge; and the New York University Langone Medical Center renovation.
The rising stars include a project manager with more than 14 years of experience in creating sustainable health care master plans; an urban planner who leads her firm's energy and sustainability practice; and an advocate skilled at advising on construction industry issues. Another was instrumental in the rebuilding of New York City's transit system after Superstorm Sandy inundated it with salt water; while one honoree founded her firm's Young Professionals Group to ensure that potential future leaders play a role in the successful growth of the company.
