New Luxury Residential Apartment Renovation Project Managed by
Empire Projects, Inc.
A new luxury
apartment renovation --- project managed by Empire Projects,
Inc. --- has gone into the construction phase.
The
condominium apartment is located in the luxury Time Warner tower
building on West 58th Street, in Manhattan.
The area of
the project is approximately 3,000 sf, and is organized around a
dramatic “Great Room” with fabulous views of Central park to the
West, and the Hudson River and George Washington Bridge to the
North.
The
materials and details of the apartment renovation were chosen
with care. Materials include marble floors, glass and drywall
partitions, and custom millwork.
The design
package includes furniture, accessories and artwork.
The project
features a wide range of system upgrades, including new HVAC
systems, new electrical systems, new humidification system, and
new AV and residential system controls package.
Project
management of a condominium or coop apartment renovation in
Manhattan requires an understanding of what makes a successful
residential design, and how that design can be implemented
appropriately through the construction process. In an apartment
or home renovation, the unit owner is generally very involved in
the construction process, and that creates an opportunity for
the residential project manager to help guide the apartment or
home owner through the process, to make sure they understand how
the project is progressing, and to make sure that the project is
meeting the client’s budget, schedule and quality expectations.
Another factor for the project manager of an apartment
renovation, is the interface with the coop or condo building’s
ownership and management. This is where the experience of the
project manager is particularly relevant, as the construction
project manager must not only review and understand the
building’s design and construction guidelines, but must make
sure that the project design and construction conforms to those
guidelines. In addition, the apartment's location in Manhattan
requires expertise in the logistics of building in Manhattan, as
well as the approval process of the New York City Building
Department, and the New York City Fire Department.
Empire
Projects, Inc. is ideally suited to project manage a coop or
condo apartment renovation, due to the fact that the company is
