    Renovation/Modifications to Office Building
59 Wall Street
New York, New York

Brown Brothers Harriman (BBH), Owner
59 Wall Street
New York, New York
Chu & Gassman, consultants for renovation and modifications to this 35-story property owned by BBH, made a review of the building's electrical distribution system. We then provided the design of various modifications to improve electrical power distribution to the current computer systems, as well as an evaluation of the building's mechanical and HVAC systems. Modifications and changes by other tenants were also reviewed prior to implementation. Emergency power distribution tests were performed to ensure the building would be able to function normally under Con Ed blackout condition. One of the major renovations involved removal and replacement of building steam traps. At the conclusion of this program steam utilization in the building was substantially reduced.

Fifth Floor Renovation

Subconsultant to Vollmer Associates, Inc.
Chu & Gassman designed electrical, HVAC, plumbing and fire protection systems for this project that completely renovates approximately 30,000 sq. ft. of the building.

The entire 5th floor was gutted and provisions made for five new air-handling units for heating and cooling by tapping into the central boiler and chiller plant. A new DDC control system was designed to operate the heating and ventilating units and tie into the building management system (BMS).

The project also included a complete fire sprinkler system and standpipe system using latest NFPA Codes.

All toilet facilities and drinking fountains were replaced in compliance with ADA requirements.
