The College of Saint Rose Centennial Hall Albany, NY
Designed by
EYP Architecture & Engineering, the building features single-occupancy bedrooms, lounges and group
study areas, and a rear courtyard that will be utilized
by the College for campus gatherings. Centennial
Hall will also include amenities such as “Provisions on Demand"
(POD) - a convenience-type store,” a “Burger
Studio” café, indoor bike storage, small study rooms, and laundry facilities
on each floor. Both the market and the café
will be open to the public.
A number of “green” features
will be incorporated into the project. Geothermal heat pump
system, high-efficiency boilers, materials low in volatile organic compounds
(VOCs), high-efficiency lighting and controls, insulated exterior walls
exceeding building code, and single-stream recycling are just some of the
features minimizing energy use and overall impact on the environment.
The first phase of the project
has been completed and included demolition of 13 buildings along Madison Avenue, Yates and
Partridge Streets under a fast-track approach to ensure a seamless start of
construction. Sano-Rubin managed the disconnection and realignment of all
utilities in the area.
During
preconstruction, Sano-Rubin:
-
Developed bid packages to
meet market conditions and best value
-
Over $500,000 saved through
Value Informed Design (VID) approach
-
Condensed the construction timeline by
1 1/2 months to meet the College's accelerated schedule
