Case Study

Rosenwald Courts combined preservation constraints with major new mechanical infrastructure across a large residential redevelopment.

Roberts helped deliver condenser water systems, vertical stack heat pumps, cooling towers, boiler plants, and integrated controls.

Challenge

Historic preservation requirements had to be balanced with modern mechanical infrastructure across a large residential redevelopment.

Scope

  • 340,000 sq ft redevelopment
  • $1.152M in value engineering savings
  • Two complete boiler plants
  • Integrated controls and hidden cooling towers

Execution

Roberts helped deliver condenser water systems, vertical stack heat pumps, cooling towers, two boiler plants, and integrated controls while supporting the value-engineering process.

Result

The project paired historic restoration with practical mechanical delivery and a documented $1.152M value-engineering contribution.

Technical Highlights

  • 340,000 sq ft redevelopment
