In 2022, a burst pipe caused significant water damage throughout the downtown branch of the Hartford Public Library. In response, RZ Design, a GM2 Company, and TSKP STUDIO were brought on board to complete repairs and design improvements. The library seized this opportunity to enhance its facilities, including crucial ADA upgrades, while also addressing damage to the MEP/FP systems and overall building structure. Portions of the library, including the patio and some classrooms, were reopened this past spring, and the first floor officially opened on November 20, 2024 with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. This reopening provided the community access to collections, computers, passports, and offerings from The American Space. Phase two of the repairs and renovations began in the fall and will continue into 2025. Once completed, phase two will include the return of the Adult Learning Center and American Place, along with newly renovated classrooms, technology training spaces, and a media studio in partnership with HPATV. It’s been rewarding to be part of a project that not only repairs but revitalizes a community landmark.

This project is best defined as a “Renovate-To-New” project of the existing 240,000-square-foot Windham High School. The project also includes a new turf football field and synthetic track, the replacement of field lights with new high-performance lighting, a new ADA-compliant press box with new bleachers, new baseball and softball fields with natural grass, new tennis courts, and a renovated concession stand with bathrooms. Additionally, the project added three exterior greenhouses. All existing mechanical, plumbing, electrical, and fire protection systems were replaced, along with new fire alarm and security systems. A solar photovoltaic system was integrated into covered carports throughout the parking areas. All areas were renovated, including office spaces, classrooms, the kitchen/cafeteria, media center, auditorium, music and art rooms, two gymnasiums, and an “eco-lab” with woodworking equipment. An existing swimming pool was removed to make room for the new Board of Education office. #MEP #FP #Structural #EngineeringExcellence

This project entailed the complete renovation of an existing World War I and II era space into a modern prototyping, assembly, and testing facility. The facilities infrastructure was replaced with new plumbing, electrical and mechanical services while the fire protection system required only minor adjustments with a new fire alarm system installed. Additionally, structural reinforcements were designed and constructed for all rooftop equipment, as well as elevated supports for grade mounted equipment.

RZ Design, a GM2 Company, provided MEP and Structural Engineering design services for the $63M restoration and expansion of Memorial Boulevard School into the Bristol Arts and Innovation Magnet School. The historic school was built in 1921 and served as Bristol High School until it was abandoned in 2007. The existing 96,000 ft2 building was completely renovated and modernized to house aspiring artists, musicians, and engineers in grades 6 to 12 including the 900-seat theater that was restored back to grandeur for the school and community. The project received the 2023 Award of Merit from the Connecticut Building Congress (CBC).
