Chattanooga Housing Authority Demolition

EAI was contracted by the City of Chattanooga for the mitigation and subsequent demolition of the former Harriet Tubman Housing Complex in Chattanooga, TN. The site was comprised of approximately 45 acres and 75 buildings (600,000SF). EAI’s scope of work included the mitigation of the 75 structures of asbestos and lead; demolition of the former housing authority buildings/slabs/playgrounds, removal/repurposing of trees, grading of site and hydroseeding. A unique aspect of the project included re-purposing of non-contaminated materials with a goal of 85% re-use/salvage and required employment of new hires from local individuals within the project site zip code. Key information relating to the project includes:

  • Hiring of local “zip code” personnel up to 16 individuals during peak work
  • Local individuals pre-dominantly focused on the cleaning/palletizing of brick from the buildings (>4,200 tons)
  • Overall project re-purposing/salvage for non-contaminated materials of 97% (>28,000 tons)
  • Project completed on schedule
