Two PSI Veterans Announce Retirement
|
|
 |
Karl Schneider - Project Manager
|
|
|
|
Glen Howell - Master Welder
|
|
|
|
With mixed emotions, Precast Services, Inc. announces the retirement of two loyal employees with a combined 41 years of service.
|
|
|
|
After almost 22 years with Precast Services, Inc., Project Manager Karl (with a "K") Schneider has decided to retire and get away from the hustle and bustle of traveling to spend quality time at home in Tennessee with his family and grandchildren.
Prior to joining Precast Services, Inc. as a member of Iron-workers Local 808 in Orlando, Florida, Karl supervised the renovation of many high profile projects at the Kennedy Space Center, Disney World, and Universal Studios to name a few. Karl also worked over-seas on projects in Algeria and Belgium.
|
|
Karl began his career with Precast Services, Inc. in 1998 as a Project Foreman and supervised many projects over the years. If you travel on Interstate 71 and cross the Ohio River into Covington, Kentucky, look to the East and you can't help but notice the eye-catching Ascent Building (pictured above left) of which Karl managed the erection of precast elements. In 2016, Karl was promoted to Project Manager and took on the responsibility of managing multiple projects concurrently.
|
|
Glen began his career with Precast Services, Inc. in 2002 and is retiring as a member of Iron-workers Local 25 in Detroit, MI. Working initially on projects in Michigan, it became abundantly clear that his skills guaranteed him a long and prosperous career at Precast Services, Inc.
As work slowed down within Michigan, Glen took to the road bringing his expertise to precast projects all over the country. As a certified welder and welding inspector, Glen knew exactly how the work was to be performed and often actually, in turn, educated third-party welding inspectors as to what to look for when inspecting different types of welds.
|
|
Glen celebrated many birthdays over the course of each year when going out to dinner with the crew as the server was always told it was his birthday. This resulted in many serenade's and in some cases..... Free Pony Rides!
Precast Services, Inc. wishes both Karl and Glen a happy and lengthy retirement - You Both Earned It! - Congratulations!

1st & Essex Parking Garage
Harrison, New Jersey
|
|
It is no secret that the town of Harrison, NJ has seen an explosion of new development over the last decade and a half.
Located in a thriving transit-oriented residential and mixed-use neighborhood, which lies within the Waterfront Redevelopment Area, developers are continuing to build residential apartments along with retail and parking facilities.
Precast Services, Inc. recently completed a parking structure which will serve residences occupying the first phase of the planned
552 residential units. Each residence would be assigned one (1) parking space per unit, though the development would sit just over a half-mile walk from the Harrison PATH Station and several Newark Light Rail Stations across the river.

PSI Begins Work In Saratoga Springs, NY
|
|
Over the past 10 years the Saratoga Springs (NY) City Center Authority has been diligently working for approval to build a parking structure. After many administrative and legal set-backs, Precast Services, Inc. has begun erecting the
$16 million, 610-vehicle parking structure on 2.6 acres of city-owned property.
The parking structure will provide much needed additional parking for Downtown Saratoga Springs, and the Saratoga Springs City Center, a convention center offering 32,000 square feet of easily adaptable meeting and convention space.
A see-through elevated walkway over Maple Avenue will link the upper level of the parking garage to the City Center.
Precast erection is expected to be completed by Labor Day 2020.

PSI Returns to Regeneron to Erect Garage
at New Manufacturing Facility
|
|
As part of Regeneron's continued expansion in the Capitol (NY) Region, the expansion of it's Tempel Lane campus in East Greenbush, NY is well underway.
Under construction is 240,000 square feet of office and lab space, 350,000 square feet of manufacturing space. And soon to be under construction is a 1,000-space parking garage to be erected by Precast Services, Inc., being a PCI Certified Erector.
The erection of the Tempel Lane Garage marks the third venture with Regeneron and it's construction partners for Precast Services, Inc. and we are pleased to be of service once again.
Just this month, Regeneron announced the initiation of late-stage clinical trials evaluating REGN-COV2, Regeneron's investigational double antibody cocktail for the treatment and prevention of COVID-19. A Phase 3 trial will evaluate REGN-COV2's ability to prevent infection among uninfected people who have had close exposure to a COVID-19 patient (such as the patient's housemate), and is being run jointly with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). REGN-COV2 has also moved into the Phase 2/3 portion of two adaptive Phase 1/2/3 trials testing the cocktail's ability to treat hospitalized and non-hospitalized (or "ambulatory") patients with COVID-19.
Regeneron Pharmaceuticals co-founder, president and chief scientific officer George Yancopoulos said: “We are running simultaneous adaptive trials in order to move as quickly as possible to provide a potential solution to prevent and treat COVID-19 infections, even in the midst of an ongoing global pandemic."
