Aerial Photos Gallery
As part of 1743 Holdings commitment to keep Newark area residents informed of the progress and transformation of the Science, Technology & Advanced Research Campus, URS will be contractually responsible for capturing biweekly aerial pictures of the site. These photos will depict the decommissioning and demolition of the site and its buildings.
During the performance of the planned work, approximately 95 percent of the material from the site will be recycled. URS also will work to maximize the utilization of community assets and resources.
