Building New York City's Schools: 17 Projects Across All Five Boroughs
Nearly a decade of competitively bid projects for the NYC School Construction Authority, delivering over $1.1 billion in new school construction.
NYC School Construction Authority
The NYC School Construction Authority (SCA) is the public benefit corporation responsible for designing, constructing, and modernizing public school facilities across New York City. Serving over one million students in the nation's largest public school system, the SCA is committed to building safe, attractive, and environmentally sound schools for communities in every borough.
Trusted to Build Where It Matters Most
Since 2018, Navillus has been a consistent partner to the NYC School Construction Authority, earning repeated awards on some of the city's most high-profile new school builds. Across 17 projects spanning every borough in New York City, Navillus has demonstrated the capacity, reliability, and technical expertise required to deliver complex educational facilities on time and to the highest standards.
These are not small undertakings. Individual contract values range from $31 million to over $119 million, with total square footage per project reaching as high as 125,000 SF. Whether constructing a 112,000 SF facility in Manhattan or mobilizing for simultaneous builds across Queens and the Bronx, Navillus has proven its ability to scale operations while maintaining the quality and safety standards that public school construction demands.
The breadth of this portfolio reflects a level of institutional trust that is earned over years of consistent performance. With 10 projects already completed, 5 currently under construction, and 2 more that started in 2025, Navillus remains one of the SCA's most active general contractors, shaping the learning environments of New York City's next generation.
