Matrix led the effort to convert a former industrial pier in the City of Hoboken to a multi-component recreational destination. The project included extensive structural renovation of the existing pier and complete replacement of defunct marina infrastructure destroyed by Superstorm Sandy. Work included Floating Dock Marina Construction; Pile Jacketing; Concrete Spall Repair; Complete Replacement of Failed Concrete Platform Structure; Bulkhead Replacement; Utilities; Salt-Tolerant Landscaping.

Matrix provided engineering assistance to reconstruct the marina and pier. The project also included an evaluation of the pier and cost estimates for the repairs. An underwater and waterfront structural inspection was completed along with estimated timelines, budgets and permitting requirements for the repairs for the client’s review. The design included the concrete repairs, pile jackets, utility upgrades and landscaping improvements. For the reconstruction of the floating dock marina, Matrix evaluated the damages to develop a more robust system for future storms, including a wave analysis and evaluation of replacement products.
