The prime objective for this Capital Project Scope Development (CPSD) process is to assess the feasibility and determine the scope of work and budget necessary to allow the development of a new Training Academy for the Department of Corrections (DOC) as well as improving and expanding the Fire Department of New York’s (FDNY) existing training facilities to meet their programmatic requirements at Fort Totten. A three-stage process concludes here with this Stage 3 Report documenting the preferred Master Plan scheme. Previous submissions included the Stage 1 Report: Inventory and Analysis and the Stage 2 Report: Issue Identification/Prioritization and Development Options. The Stage 2 Report development options included three conceptual Master Plans for the shared campus as well as three conceptual design alternatives for each Academy to determine the most economical andefficient manner of fulfilling the long-term programmatic requirements for both the FDNY and DOC. Costrak worked as a cost subconsulatnt to Stuart-Lynn and prepared all the cost associated with this capital project.
