How We Helped St. Nick's Alliance

NY Engineers provided professional mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineering consultation services for two of the organization’s buildings. Identical in structure, both buildings contained 45 units within five stories that were all undergoing a substantial rehabilitation, including gas and plumbing riser replacement and various upgrades to improve ventilation and overall energy efficiency of the buildings.
