The General Society of Mechanics & Tradesmen Building

New York, NY

Mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection engineering services for the preparation of a professional building assessment of the 7-story, 7-bay wide, 70,000 SF Beaux Arts and Italian Renaissance Revival building. The goal was to preserve the historic characteristics of the building, while complying with current building codes, the American with Disabilities Act, and reconciling energy codes with preservation requirements. The building now accommodates modern functions to improve public access to resources and services.
