NYC is spending $12,000,000 building 3D Underground. A map that shows the utilities, bedrock, and subsurface conditions throughout. Half of that map is here. 100,000 underground measurements and advanced geotechnical analysis stitched together from 25 years of data with the ability to render preliminary site surveys on demand. This is a start of an adventure that's built from the bottom up. Foundation to finished floors. One singular mission. Make construction in NYC transparent, so we can build better than ever before. I've spent the past 20 years of my life in the construction world in NYC at the highest levels, wondering why there was never a shared way to interact with data that already existed. The past two years of my life has been an adventure. A lot of loss, a new daughter, and a new love. The world has a funny way of opportunity, by knocking you off your pedestal and putting you so far underground that you don't know how you got there. I've spent two years rebuilding from the ground up, and this animation is the starting point from underground back to the surface. https://buildnyc.ai/3d To the one who found me at bedrock.
