125 Years of Excellence
Bank of America Mission Critical Tower on 42nd Street
E-J is heavily involved in Mission Critical and Data Centers. Examples include GE Capital, Sentinel Data Centers, and the complete Bank of America Mission Critical Tower on 42nd Street. This 54-story, 2.1-million-square-foot tower is the first skyscraper designed to achieve a LEED® Platinum rating and will include a five-megawatt cogeneration plant, ice storage plant, extensive gray water retention and recycling system, green roof areas and water-free urinals. This tenant infrastructure project started from the Con Edison stabs to approximately 400 lighting and power panels. Included in the project are 4-2.4 MW multi-module UPS units, 6-2MW Generators (being lifted to the 7th floor), and a redundant power system throughout.
Hospitals and Healthcare
Health Care continues to be an E-J specialty with projects such as Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, Interfaith Hospital, New York Hospital in Queens, DNA Laboratory at Bellevue Hospital, Stamford Hospital, Greenwich Hospital and Mt. Sinai Center for Science and Medicine.
Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center
Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center conducts one of the largest programs of clinical research in the world. Clinical research at the Center combines the efforts of laboratory and clinical investigators in various disciplines and departments to improve the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer.
E-J Electric’s scope of work included fit out and design of all the laboratory areas, which consisted of installations meeting requirements of bio-safety levels 1, 2 & 3. We installed and assembled the glass wash systems, bedding and sterilizing systems. The 4th floor was designed for MRI and x-ray equipment. While installing this equipment we laid out and prepared areas for phase two development work.
Mt. Sinai School of Medicine and Science
Mt. Sinai School of Medicine’s Multipurpose Building in New York City is an 8-story state-of-the-art Research facility consisting of 4 floors of high-density office space, 10 Laboratory/Research floors and 2 Psychiatric Patient floors. E-J installed the entire voice/data cable plant and technical power for this 850,000 sq. ft. new construction project.
Transportation
The International Arrivals Building at John F. Kennedy International Airport, constructed by a triumvirate of LCOR, Lehman Brothers, and Schipol has been the largest project in the New York area and was completed on an extremely tight construction schedule. E-J manned the project with over 160 electricians and completed it within the scheduled deadline.
The E-J JFK office then directed the same staff to the new American Airlines billion-dollar terminal. E-J completed all the distribution and the entire building fit out for Terminal C.
E-J was the Core and Shell contractor on the new 70-acre Jet Blue Airlines terminal. As part of the project, we provided power and control wiring for the entire baggage handling system.
Demonstrating the breadth of E-J capabilities and responsibilities are the complete electrical installations for the St. George Ferry Terminal, Korean Airlines, Lufthansa Cargo Warehouse, and the modernization of the Holland Tunnel Vent Buildings in NY and NJ, as well as Delta Airlines at New York’s LaGuardia and JFK International Airports.
The New Yankee Stadium
E-J was proud to be a part of the construction of the brand-new Yankee Stadium. We installed over 15,000 fixtures and over 120 miles of conduit. The new stadium’s design consisted of two separate structures. The exterior is a wall circling the perimeter of the Yankees’ new property and resembles the pre-renovation exterior of the original Yankee Stadium. The interior is a modern ballpark, with increased amenities, that have become a staple of every new ballpark.
The field’s dimensions are identical to those at the prior Yankee Stadium. The new stadium seats approximately 51,000 fans. In addition, there are over 60 luxury boxes between the second level and the upper deck.
E-J’s scope included the fit-out of all lighting and power in the Left Field, Home Plate, and Right Field areas, as well as the Architectural lighting control system and the temporary lighting power systems for the entire project.
The New York Post Printing Plant
E-J has extensive industrial experience. The New York Post Printing Plant included the power and control wiring for four new “GOSS” printing presses. Each press consisted of 7 printing stacks. E-J installed over 2 million feet of Power and Control cables in 6 thousand feet of cable tray.

E-J’s involvement after 9/11
E-J was involved in the re-establishing of commuter rail service from New Jersey to lower Manhattan, vital to the economy of New York City, after 9/11 disaster. It required the construction of a temporary station to replace the Downtown PATH (Port Authority Trans Hudson). The project consisting of a 400,000 square foot facility, located 70 feet below street level, involved the complete construction of a very high-usage Mass Transit railroad station and was the first phase of the reconstruction of the World Trade Center in lower Manhattan. The project was extremely fast track, packing $20 million dollars of Electrical Work in a 9-month time frame.
Transit
An addition to the E-J team is our Transit Group. With the future of New York becoming more dependent on Mass Transit, and the expanding upgrades and new services needed, this group will fill a much-needed area. They have management experience in transit work, and their staff of project managers and experienced electricians can handle a variety of installations. These include electrical, communications, and signal work for station modernizations and other MTA properties, facilities, and yards. E-J plans on being in there to aggressively pursue this area.
