NYPD 88 Precinct

The NYPD 88th Precinct building, constructed in 1924 and encompassing 25,000 square feet, lacked a centralized air conditioning system, relying instead on window AC units and natural ventilation. Additionally, the building’s single 400 Amp electrical service was insufficient to meet the operational demands of the NYPD.

To address these issues, DM Engineers conducted a thorough assessment of the facility’s existing conditions and developed detailed design drawings and technical specifications for HVAC and electrical upgrades. During the construction phase, DM Engineers provided construction administration services, including preparing contract specifications and drawings for a new centralized HVAC system. The project also involved upgrading the building’s electrical infrastructure to support a 1,000 Amp incoming service, ensuring the building could meet modern operational- nal requirements. These enhancements significantly improved the building’s functionality and comfort.

Pamoja House

Pamoja House, built in the late 18th century as a military facility, is now a men’s homeless shelter. It is owned by the Department of Homeless Services and managed by the Black Veterans of Social Justice, providing housing for up to 200 men.

The project involved providing MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) design services to renovate the bathrooms and adjacent tank rooms in the building’s Drill Hall. The renovation included updating the infrastructure for the bathrooms and additional facilities, ensuring full compliance with applicable codes and agency guidelines. The completed upgrades feature new plumbing fixtures, HVAC services, energy-efficient LED lighting, fire alarm devices, and electrical outlets, significantly improving functionality, safety, and comfort for the residents.
