BETHANY SENIOR TERRACES

Bethany Terraces is a 4-story senior housing facility containing 64 studio apartments and one 1-bedroom apartment. The project was designed to Passive House (PHIUS) Standards, Enterprise Green Communities Standards, and NYSERDA Multifamily New Construction Program (Tier 3).

Modular Construction Methods

NY Engineers designed this project with modular construction methods in mind. Extensive coordination was done with the modular unit builder, architect, and design team to ensure that all base building systems came together during the construction process. The building consists of community spaces, program offices, and a commercial kitchen. The building is expected to be completed for occupancy in 2020.

NYE also provided all new utilities and special inspections. The project was delivered in Revit and was designed to Passive House standards. The project also includes a near Net-Zero design with a rooftop solar array.
