Efficient Modular Offices and Restrooms for Sunset Pier 94 Studios Construction
Project Overview
McKissack Group is the oldest minority/women-owned professional design and construction firm in the United States. A family-owned business for over 120 years, the construction management firm is overseeing the new Sunset Pier 94 Studios project in Manhattan, partnering with Cassone Leasing to create a comfortable and efficient workspace for their on-site project team.
With construction taking place on a pier and limited space, Cassone delivered customized modular offices and restroom units that fit seamlessly under an overpass without compromising functionality or comfort.
Cassoneโs design team developed a tailored iBox configuration to provide the McKissack team with modern, fully equipped office and restroom spaces despite the siteโs tight footprint. Each modular unit has been designed to withstand the challenges of the waterfront environment and to operate efficiently within the constraints of an active construction site.

How Cassone Delivered
Challenge
The Sunset Pier 94 Studios site presented several logistical and structural challenges. The project offices and restrooms needed to be installed directly beneath an overpass, where space for equipment and deliveries was extremely limited.
The pierโs layout and height restrictions made maneuvering delivery trucks and equipment difficult, requiring precision planning and coordination. The McKissack team needed immediate access to reliable workspace facilities without delaying the broader construction timeline.
Solution
Cassoneโs in-house design team engineered a custom iBox layout that optimized the limited footprint under the overpass while meeting McKissackโs operational needs. The modular configuration included dedicated office spaces and restrooms equipped for daily use throughout the construction project.
Cassoneโs experienced drivers and installation team carefully navigated the complex site conditions, executing delivery and assembly with precision to minimize disruptions to ongoing construction activities.
Outcome
The completed setup provided McKissack Group with a comfortable and functional workspace, as well as reliable restroom facilities, which enhanced on-site productivity throughout the construction of Sunset Pier 94 Studios.
Cassoneโs innovative modular design and expert installation enabled the project team to maximize the potential of a constrained and unconventional location, supporting one of New York Cityโs most anticipated film studio developments.
