Rego Park Mixed-Use Apartment Building Roof Replacement
Building Overview
This property is a mixed-use apartment building located in the Rego Park section of Queens, a dense residential neighborhood along the Queens Boulevard corridor characterized by mid-rise apartment buildings with integrated street-level commercial uses. The structure is of reinforced concrete and steel construction, with concrete floor slabs supported by a structural frame designed to support mixed-use occupancies. The exterior building envelope is composed primarily of masonry façade systems with glazed window assemblies, typical of cooperative residential construction in this area. The building is finished with a flat roof system, utilizing a membrane roofing assembly with perimeter parapets and rooftop features commonly associated with mid-rise cooperative apartment buildings.
Project Scope
EOC has provided continuous engineering and architectural support in furtherance of the building’s long-term maintenance strategy and asset preservation goals. Serving as Engineer of Record, EOC conducted thorough evaluations and inspections of the existing roof system, developed detailed construction drawings and technical specifications, supported ownership throughout the contractor bidding and selection process, and delivered construction-phase services, including field observations and technical oversight, to confirm that the roof replacement work was completed in accordance with the approved design intent and project requirements. EOC also acted as Engineer of Record for an exterior restoration initiative focused on the building envelope. This scope included façade condition surveys and assessments, preparation of construction documentation, coordination with contractors, and construction administration services. EOC further completed the required NYC Façade Inspection & Safety Program (FISP) examinations and prepared and submitted the associated reports to the NYC Department of Buildings, ensuring regulatory compliance and continued public safety.
