R.W. Sullivan Engineering provided Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing and Fire Protection design for a new 212 unit residential community. The project consisted of two four-story residential buildings. One building is approximately 150,000 square feet, and the other is approximately 110,000 square feet. The community also includes a 5,000 square foot clubhouse with an outdoor pool, fitness center, spin room, gaming studio, multiple flat screen televisions, a teaching kitchen, billiard table and a resident lounge with double sided fireplace.

The HVAC system consisted of split system high efficiency air conditioning units with hot water coils for heating.
