This engineering innovation allowed multiple hoists to be clustered in one location. The result was lower cost, and greater efficiency and constructibility for the overall project. This cutting-edge technology became the standard for all future high-rise building projects in New York City. Twenty years later, UBS introduced the next generation of hoisting system, technologically superior by allowing approximately 90% of the installation to be performed at ground level, greatly reducing workers risk of “time in the tower at height
