Guth DeConzo, an Engineering and Construction Management Firm with offices in New York City, Troy, NY, Lake Success, NY and Stony Brook, NY, has been awarded a $13M contract for Construction Management Services at the NYPD Woodside Headquarters Facility in Queens, NY.

This project will involve the removal and replacement of all existing mechanical equipment, addition of heat recovery coils, installation of a Solar PV system, lighting and door upgrades, exterior building insulation system, all new point of use water heaters, and HVAC Controls Upgrade. The mechanical equipment will include installation of variable frequency drives (VFDs) to enable setbacks. The exterior insulation system will utilize a prefabricated exterior brick veneer type panel. There will also be interior spray foam insulation at the roof area for added savings.

The controls upgrade, which will ultimately control all new and existing equipment is the foremost portion of this project. The new DDC system will allow for equipment and environment setbacks currently not available in this building thus providing extensive energy savings.

“This is a project Guth is very excited about as it will encompass such a wide- ranging scope of energy improvements to the NYPD Woodside Facility,” said Jeremy

McDonald, Principal of Guth DeConzo. “These are the types of projects where our CM Group excels as they are not only technically complex but also extremely difficult
logistically.”

The project is currently scheduled for construction to start in Fall, 2023 with a projected completion date of May, 2024
