EW Howell Construction Group
September 22, 2020
EW Howell provided pre-construction and construction services for six new belvederes – or scenic overlooks – that are part of the new Governor Mario Cuomo Bridge’s (formerly the Tappan Zee Bridge) shared bike and pedestrian path. These resting points reflect the culture and history of the Lower Hudson Valley and provide a new connection for non-motorized transport in the region, offering an exciting recreational opportunity that doesn’t currently exist in Rockland or Westchester counties. EW Howell brought the six belvederes to reality through an extensive design-build process, which included the creation of custom fabricated illuminated canopies and benches. The belvederes each have a unique theme and name–Fish and Ships, Painter’s Point, River Crossing, Half Moon, Tides of Tarrytown and Palisades–illustrated by different design concepts, which required the construction of one-of-a-kind sculpted seating areas of stainless steel, glass, granite and wood.
