Just as the supersonic transport technology that gave birth to the Concorde was borne in imagination and innovation, so too was the solution of transporting the plane from its temporary holding at JFK Airport to the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum along Manhattan’s West Side.
Facing challenges comprising harbor and estuary tides, weather, bridge heights and channel widths, MVN Associates designed and implemented a project plan employing multiple barges and tug boats working in unison to move the Concorde to its new home. Despite multiple challenges MVN completed delivery on time without incident.
