Hanson Professional Services Inc. (HANSON) provided Site & Building Design services for upgrading an existing facility and
providing a new building on Eagle Rock Tower Site in West Orange, New Jersey... The Transmitter Facility site consisted of a
two-story masonry structure with existing broadcast tenants, and the new building would house digital and LPTV broadcast
facilities. Site Survey Services included documentation of the existing building and electrical services. Adjunct services included
Site Plans, building plans, elevations and RF antenna detailing, electrical and mechanical services for building and tenant
implementation Interestingly, in obtaining approvals from the Town of West Orange, for Tower type and height restrictions, the
planning board also took a keen interest in the design of the structure. Being located near Eagle Rock Park and a prominent
perch on high point of the Road, the town did not want an Industrial look. A false 3-story front developed with local vernacular
features of brick, precast concrete cornice, headers and lintels beguile a plain utilitarian 2-story transmitter housing plant.
