1199 Housing Corporation

O&S has provided on-call architectural, engineering, and construction services to 1199 Housing Corp. since 2016. O&S has provided consulting for façade repairs, concrete repairs, and site work. 1199 Housing is a 1,594-unit Mitchell-Lama cooperative consisting of four high-rise buildings, underground parking, surface lots, and green spaces on a site that occupies four city blocks. 1199 operates under the jurisdiction of NYC HDC and NYC HPD.

Currently under an approximate $65-million construction budget, O&S has provided an assessment and design for the restoration of the buildings’ roofing systems, exterior walls, water pumps, electrical panels, switchgears, main panels, fire pumps, and new fire alarm system for all four buildings. Our professional services include condition assessment, design, and construction administration. The site work that O&S has been providing includes exterior concrete work, garage waterproofing, parking lot improvements, chain link fencing replacement, and brick retaining wall pointing. We performed the services for the Cycle 8 Façade Inspection Safety Program Report (FISP). During the close-out phase of the exterior envelope work for each building, O&S will perform the required close-up examination while also performing the final inspection of the façade work. O&S will prepare the Façade Inspection Report and TR-6 as per the City Code 1 RCNY §103-04 Periodic Inspection of Exterior Walls and Appurtenances of Buildings and TPPN#1/99. The Façade Inspection Report and TR-6 will be filed with the New York City Department of Buildings.

The project is currently out to bid with an anticipated construction start date of June 2019 and completion date of June 2021.
