Milestone Achieved: First 3 Elevators in Service at Atlantic Avenue–Barclays Center
We’re proud to announce a major achievement in our ongoing Joint Venture between Gramercy Group Inc. and Forte Construction:
As of yesterday, three brand-new elevators are officially in service at the Atlantic Avenue–Barclays Center Station!
🎉 These are the first 3 of 37 total elevators being replaced as part of a transformative accessibility and modernization initiative across the MTA network.
What’s Next?
📍 Next week: One more elevator is scheduled to go into service at 14th Street in Manhattan.
📍 May: Five additional elevators will follow.
This is a testament to the hard work, coordination, and dedication of our teams and partners.
We’re especially grateful to everyone who contributed their expertise and energy to make this possible — from design and planning through to installation and commissioning.
Congratulations to the entire team! Let’s keep up the momentum as we continue to enhance accessibility and reliability for New York City’s transit riders.
Only 34 More to Go!
This milestone marks just the beginning of a much larger modernization effort across the MTA network.
We’re excited to continue delivering safer, more accessible transit infrastructure for millions of riders across New York City.
