Any time we can renovate a building in the downtown area of Manhattan, we are excited to help. We were able to turn this existing dentist office into a sleek, modern orthodontics office for Hayden Kohlmeier Orthodontics. This 10,000 SF office building was built in 1970 and then a large addition was added in 1981. The building needed a substantial amount of renovation and a complete mechanical, electrical and plumbing renovation to make it fit for its new use.
This project involved the coordination of a large team: BHS Construction (construction), AsterHouse Design (Interior Design), Orazem & Scalora, (MEP Engineer), VMT Engineering (Structural Engineer) and various dental consultants. This project definitely came with many surprises, as do many renovation projects. However, not all surprises are bad, like how exposing existing wood beams and wood roof deck changed the character and design of the space for the better.
