The team chose the 450 USt all-terrain for its capacity and maneuverability on the job site, as it had only one week to perform lifts for the project.<\/p>\n<p>The crane was provided by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nycrane.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New York Crane &amp; Equipment<\/a>, a Maspeth, New York-based company that also contributed engineering services on the job site prior to each lift. City officials expect the New York Wheel to bring more than 3 million visitors to Staten Island per year after it opens to the public in early 2018.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10995 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cranemarket.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/New-York-Crane-Equipment-Corp-1.png\" alt=\"New York Crane &amp; Equipment Corp\" width=\"556\" height=\"165\" srcset=\"https:\/\/machine.market\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/New-York-Crane-Equipment-Corp-1.png 556w, https:\/\/machine.market\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/New-York-Crane-Equipment-Corp-1-300x89.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 556px) 100vw, 556px\" \/><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_10996\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10996\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10996\" src=\"https:\/\/cranemarket.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Grove-GMK6400-lays-foundation-for-worlds-largest-Ferris-wheel-1.jpg\" alt=\"Construction of one of the world\u2019s largest Ferris wheels is underway in New York City, and a Grove GMK6400 has helped contractors to build its foundation.
