Chairman of the Board Floyd Warkol commented, "KSW's revenues rose this quarter as work began on previously delayed jobs. We have added $70 million in new contracts since January 1, 2008, and demand for our expertise remains strong. KSW continues to look for new projects, but our strategy calls for us to be selective in the jobs we bid. We look for projects where our value engineering services can provide significant cost savings to our clients."
KSW currently has over 20 projects underway in New York City, including the Trump International Hotel and Tower in Manhattan's Soho area, the 52 story luxury rental and hotel building at 839 Sixth Avenue in Manhattan, the New York Presbyterian Hospital's Cardiovascular Center in upper Manhattan, and Mount Sinai's Center for Science and Medicine, where KSW has been selected as the HVAC Trade Manager for pre-construction services.
