Baker & Williams Warehouse

513-519, 521-527, and 529-535 West 20th Street , New York , New York

The Baker and Williams Warehouses Site was used by the Manhattan Engineer District in the early 1940s for the short-term storage of uranium concentrates that were later distributed to government facilities involved in nuclear reactor and atomic weapons programs.

In 1990, DOE designated the site for remediation under FUSRAP. DOE remediated contaminated areas in two of the three warehouses and certified that the site complied with applicable cleanup criteria and standards in 1995. The property was released for unrestricted use.

No supplemental limits or institutional controls are in effect at the privately owned site, and DOE does not require on-site monitoring or surveillance. Legacy management activities consist of managing site records and responding to stakeholder inquiries.
