PVEDI

While some people are soaking up the sunshine, its heat can cause countless issues — especially for multifamily building owners, who may experience an increase in tenant heat complaints. When this occurs, owners may start to wonder if the concern is tenant-specific or if the problem is more deeply seated in the building’s HVAC system. When questions like this arise, you need professionals with the training and experience to guide you through the complicated world of energy efficiency. That’s where PVEDI can help you.

While some clients opt for private remediation, others prefer the State to be involved so their lenders and investors see that they've satisfied regulatory oversight. Clients also often involve the government if they want to obtain a release of liability for the contamination. PVEDI is engaged in hundreds of new and potential brownfield sites across our service areas, including New York, which operates a Brownfield Cleanup Program that offers significant tax incentives. Want an experienced partner for your next acquisition and brownfield cleanup project? Contact PVEDI info@pvedi-ae.com.

Whether you are enjoying the heat or struggling through it, our MEP + Energy team shared a few tips and tricks for ensuring you’re as energy-efficient as possible while remaining cool. These range from common sense to interesting, but on those blistering days, anything helps! We also discussed what building owners can do to make their properties more efficient, so stay tuned to our socials next week when we’ll share more. Can’t wait to learn about fixing the energy consumption of your building? Email info@pvedi-ae.com to get in contact with the team for an assessment.

Environmental Site Assessments are one of the many services our Environmental team offers. Recognized Environmental Conditions (REC) are the focus for Phase I of these projects. When a Phase I ESA is completed, and RECs are identified, these conditions are confirmed through completing a Phase II ESA, which may include supplemental research or collection and analysis of soil or groundwater samples. Once contaminants are properly delineated our team can prepare a customized Remedial Action Plan and work closely with clients to ensure all environmental concerns are addressed. If you need an Environmental Site Assessment, you’ll want a team that’s experienced, reliable and familiar with all state and local requirements.

Hartford Buildings + Structures recently engineered a 126’ x 30’, 42,220 lb. LED sign for Stew Leonard's Yonkers, navigating scope changes and cutting costs by ~50% through value engineering and the reuse of materials. The team designed the support structure to allow installation without closing the store. For staff designer A’shon, it was a milestone project—the first he’s worked on and seen finished. A’shon shared, “It was like receiving an A+ on an exam that you studied really hard for over a long period of time, knowing it was worth two letter grades. Then knowing that they are happy with their sign makes the stress of getting this to work was worth it,” Even after nearly 20 years in the industry, Project Manager James Papa says “...that feeling of accomplishment never fades”.
