11 Ocean Parkway is a newly constructed, 13-story building in Brooklyn, NY installs eFlow-Constant Airflow Regulators. This building will offer affordable housing with a blend of residential and commercial spaces. This state-of-the-art development represents a significant advancement in urban living.
Project Background
Situated at 11 Ocean Parkway, this new construction by JEMB Realty features 375 residences across 145 feet of vertical space. With 2,215 square feet dedicated to residential use and 500,000 square feet for commercial activities, the building exemplifies modern, mixed-use development. Designed by FXCollaborative, the project underscores the commitment to affordable housing in New York City.
Project Details
Completed in 2023, 11 Ocean Parkway boasts 13 floors housing 375 apartments. The building integrates sustainable and efficient design principles, facilitated by top-tier engineering firms such as Dagher Engineering (mechanical) and Desimone Consulting Engineers (structural). This development not only provides affordable housing but also contributes to the local economy through its extensive commercial space.
Stakeholders and Roles
Key contributors to the project include:
- Architect: FXCollaborative
- Developer: JEMB Realty
- MEP Engineer: Dagher Engineering
- Structural Engineer: Desimone Consulting Engineers
- Installer: Air Tech Cooling
- Product Representative: SRS Enterprises
Technical Insights
The installation of eFlow Constant Airflow Regulators (CARs) was a key feature in the development. Products supplied through SRS Enterprises included 4″ CARs set to 20 CFM in 6″x6″ ceiling mount assemblies and 4″ CARs set to 25 CFM in 5″x4″ mounting plate assemblies. These regulators were installed in the apartment exhaust systems by Air Tech Cooling.
Benefits of Installing Constant Airflow Regulators
- Improved Indoor Air Quality: Ensures a constant flow of fresh air.
- Energy Efficiency: Reduces the need for excessive heating and cooling.
- Enhanced Comfort: Provides a healthier living environment for residents.
Conclusion
11 Ocean Parkway sets a new benchmark for affordable housing by integrating advanced ventilation solutions and sustainable design practices. This project highlights the effective collaboration between developers, engineers, and product specialists to create a modern living space that meets the needs of its residents.
