Project Key Features

The project involved the construction of a new high school and a preschool addition on the existing campus of Bnos Bais Yaakov in Far Rockaway, NY. The new high school building, totaling approximately 57,788 gsf, included a full level with a cafeteria/gym, multipurpose room, and cafeteria warming pantry, plus three classroom floors above. The classroom floors featured administrative areas, a science lab, a library, and various accessory areas.

Similarly, the preschool addition, totaling approximately 51,016 gsf, included a full level with a cafeteria/gym, multipurpose room, and cafeteria warming pantry, plus three classroom floors above. These floors contained administrative areas, specialized meeting rooms, multipurpose rooms, a science lab, and various accessory areas. Despite being an addition, the preschool building had separate utility points of entry and all-new MEP systems.

Both projects included the full mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection (MEP/FP) fit-out of all areas, ensuring comprehensive and modern infrastructure for the new educational facilities.
