Station Yards Phase 2A
ASCE Long Island Branch

Station Yards is an ambitious multi-phased development project, encompassing a 53-acre site surrounding the Ronkonkoma LIRR Station. H2M architects + engineers provided civil engineering for phases 1 and 2, creating this new destination hub for Long Islanders set to redefine the fabric of the local community, merging residential, commercial, and recreational spaces into a cohesive ecosystem. Station Yards Phase 2A was selected for the 2024 ASCE Long Island Branch Transit Oriented Development Award.

With the assistance of H2M, the Village of Westhampton Beach planned, funded, and built a sewage collection system to serve the Main Street District and surrounding high-density residential parcels. Construction of the project began in 2020 and was substantially completed in the 4th quarter of 2022. This project highlights how cooperation between local municipal officials, the County, and the State can be leveraged to achieve project goals. Village of West Hampton Beach Phase One Collection and Conveyance System to Suffolk County Sewer District Number 24 was selected for the 2023 ASCE Long Island Branch Quality of Life Award.

West Natick Fire Station #4
Firehouse Station Design Awards
F.I.E.R.O. Station Design Awards
AIA Long Island Archi Design Awards

Every design element of the new 25,000-square-foot West Natick Fire Station #4 protects a different aspect of health: Transition zones and decontamination rooms control the risk of carcinogenic exposure amongst first responders; Sound absorbing materials and windows accommodate irregular sleep schedules and circadian rhythms; A walking path along the station’s front curve and a publicly accessible triage in the lobby promotes public health and physical fitness; and LEED-silver equivalent design with roof solar panels supports environmental health. West Natick Fire Station #4 was selected for the Firehouse Station Design Gold Award, F.I.E.R.O. Station Design Honor Award, and the AIA Long Island Archi Sustainable Design Award.  Architect of Record: Tecton Architects, P.C., Firematic Architecture: H2M architects + engineers.

Hutchinson Valley Trunk Sewer Realignment
ACEC New York Engineering Excellence Awards

On the southbound side of the Hutchinson River Parkway in Eastchester, New York, a sewer pipe was at risk of contaminating a downstream nature preserve. H2M used an innovating technique to shorten the needed length of new piping, plugged and capped the deteriorating old sewer, and worked through the night to ensure that installation of the new pipe would have a minimal impact on commuters and be easier to maintain moving forward. Hutchinson Valley Trunk Sewer Realignment was selected for the ACEC New York Engineering Excellence Gold Award. 

West Nyack Revitalization Park & Environmental Improvements
ACEC New York Engineering Excellence Awards

H2M updated the six-acre West Nyack Playground and Park by constructing a wetland, restoring habitats and a naturalistic channel, and planting a riparian buffer to reduce flooding and improve water quality. A new educational walking path along an overlook, a new playground, and off-street parking complement the park and encourage residents and visitors to spend more time on the main street of West Nyack. West Nyack Revitalization Park & Environmental Improvements was selected for the ACEC New York Engineering Excellence Gold Award. 

Stony Brook Advanced Specialty Care
ACEC New York Engineering Excellence Awards

H2M helped transform a 170,000-square-foot former retail space within the Smith Haven Mall into the innovative Stony Brook Medicine Advanced Specialty Care facility. This remarkable facility centralizes various medical specialties under one roof in a seamless blend of medical expertise and retail convenience. Beyond its structural form, the Advanced Specialty Care facility is shaping perceptions of healthcare and illustrating how engineering can elevate public services. Stony Brook Advanced Specialty Care was selected for the ACEC New York Engineering Excellence Gold Award. 

Locust Valley Rebuild of Flooded Pump Station
ACEC New York Engineering Excellence Awards

After Hurricane Ida brought nearly four feet of floodwater to the site of Locust Valley Water District’s Plant No. 4, H2M was brought in to rebuild the flooded pump station, replace critical equipment, and design improvements to mitigate future storm impacts. H2M opted to rehabilitate the 90-year-old structure rather than replace it, out of respect for its historic significance to the local community. Locust Valley Rebuild of Flooded Pump Station was selected for the ACEC New York Engineering Excellence Silver Award

Design Repair and Refinishing of DOI Facilities
ACEC New Jersey Engineering Excellence Awards

H2M designed repairs and refinishing for the National Oil Spill Response Research & Renewable Energy Test Facility (a.k.a. “Ohmsett”). Ohmsett is a top-of-the-line facility which allows researchers to test oil spill response techniques and technologies under a wide variety of conditions. H2M performed inspections, identified shortcomings, and designed remedies within a span of 17 weeks. Design Repair and Refinishing of DOI Facilities was selected for the ACEC New Jersey Engineering Excellence Silver Award

A Sticky Situation
Canstruction Long Island

H2M employees took weeks to prepare their almost 4,000 can sculpture for the Canstruction Long Island competition that would ultimately be used to combat Long Island’s hunger issues. With 12 hours to compete, their teamwork, creativity, and building skills were put to the test while constructing their giant gumball machine. We are proud to announce the H2M volunteer team brought home the 2023 People’s Choice category!
