United Nations International School Rooftop Recreation

Location: New York, NY

Project Description: 43,000 SF VersaCoat Flex Cushion Rooftop System

Year Installed: 2013 Phase I, 2014 Phase II

The United Nations International School overlooks the East River in Manhattan. This independent, K-12 school transformed their rooftop into an outdoor recreational area with the help of VersaCoat.

This customized VersaCoat sporting system consists of a 4-6mm poured rubber pad with a layer of colored acrylic binding agent. The resulting multi-purpose surface provides an outdoor, rooftop recreational space for students in a densely built city. Students here enjoy playing a variety of sports including basketball, soccer, and hockey.

VersaCoat surfaces provide smooth acrylic or polyurethane coatings over concrete and rubber for an endless number of useful and attractive sports and recreation applications.
