  • PHILLIPSPORT CHURCH HOUSE

    Village of Wurtsboro, Mamakating, Sullivan County NY RESIDENTIAL PHILLIPSPORT CHURCH HOUSE PREVIOUS PROJECT NEXT PROJECT ARCHITECT ARCHITECTURE IN FORMATION PC PROJECT LOCATION Village of Wurtsboro, Mamakating, Sullivan County NY PROJECT SIZE 3,000 SF PROJECT COST SCOPE Full MEP/FP design optimization, energy modeling A conversion of an 1823 Methodist church to a single family residence. Phillipsport United Methodist Church was one of the oldest buildings erected in village of Wurtsboro. Envisioned as a summer home, the owner/architect carefully inserted usable residential spaces into the existing 195-year old historic structure. Morozov team worked closely with the designer to come up with a modern heating and cooling solution that can be seamlessly integrated into the building. Double height ceilings of the main sanctuary and 15-ft tall single pane float glass windows presented a challenge for heating and cooling that can meet the current energy code. The response was a high efficiency variable refrigerant volume system designed for both heating and cooling with displacement air supplies along the perimeter of the main sanctuary. The existing steeple was retrofitted to be used as a natural ventilation chimney.

  • 133 EAST 91ST STREET TOWNHOUSE, NEW YORK

    RESIDENTIAL 133 EAST 91ST STREET TOWNHOUSE, NEW YORK PREVIOUS PROJECT NEXT PROJECT ARCHITECT Ben Fuqua PROJECT LOCATION PROJECT SIZE About 4,500 SF PROJECT COST $ 5 million SCOPE Full MEP/FP design and construction administration services A full gut renovation and conversion of a multifamily building into a single family townhouse. 133 East 91st Street is one of six identical Queen Anne rowhouses completed in 1896 for a local developer John Weber. The building retains its original façade of red brick and brownstone along with a raised stoop and paved entry court, and a 20-ft rear garden. Morozov worked hand in hand with the architect to seamlessly integrate all new heating/cooling and other building infrastructure into 17.5-foot wide existing shell. Morozov consulted the owner on high performance building strategies, such as passive heating and cooling, insulation and envelope air-tightness, highly efficient domestic water heating and continuous ventilation with energy recovery. With the exception of domestic water heating, the building does not use natural gas or any other fuel for heating, and is cooled and heated with a variable-refrigerant flow system. Highly insulated envelope, and not relying on gas for heating are expected to save 20 metric tons of Carbon Dioxide emissions on an annual basis.

  • YWCA OF BROOKLYN

    CULTURAL YWCA OF BROOKLYN PREVIOUS PROJECT NEXT PROJECT ARCHITECT PROJECT LOCATION 30 Third Avenue PROJECT SIZE 180,000 SF PROJECT COST SCOPE HVAC design, energy efficiency, CHP feasibility The Young Women’s Christian Association was founded in 1888. The goal of the organization was to provide a meeting place for young women who were employed in retail stores, as office workers and other occupations throughout Brooklyn. These young ladies could listen to lectures, concerts, enjoy the reading room, and receive Christian instruction, if so desired. It was the first major organization of its kind in Brooklyn to be entirely run by women. In 1928 the Y has moved to its current building at 30 Third Avenue. The 11-story building was designed by Frederick Lee Ackerman and Alexander B. Trowbridge. The building has always served as a multi-use facility, including 214 units of supportive, low-income housing for women, a theater, a pool, health and community services, etc. This was the first YWCA to integrate its residences and programs racially. Morozov engineers were tasked with minor HVAC upgrades as well as a feasibility analysis for a co-generation module.

  • 42 SHARON STREET, BROOKLYN

With the exception of domestic water heating, the building does not use natural gas or any other fuel for heating, and is cooled and heated with a variable-refrigerant flow system. Highly insulated envelope, and fuel free heating are expected to save 15 metric tons of Carbon Dioxide emissions on an annual basis. Morozov efficiently and successfully secured utility connection approvals and assisted the client in resolving filing and approval issues.

  • PARRISH ART MUSEUM

    CULTURAL PARRISH ART MUSEUM PREVIOUS PROJECT NEXT PROJECT ARCHITECT Herzog De Meuron, Douglas Moyer PROJECT LOCATION 279 Montauk Highway, Water Mill, NY PROJECT SIZE 34,000 SF PROJECT COST $ 30 million SCOPE Full HVAC design (as design engineer at Buro Happold) “Inspired by the natural setting and artistic life of Long Island’s East End, the Parrish Art Museum illuminates the creative process and how art and artists transform our experiences and understanding of the world and how we live in it. The Museum fosters connections among individuals, art, and artists through care and interpretation of the collection, the presentation of exhibitions, publications, educational initiatives, programs, and artists-in-residence” Born in 1897 as the Art Museum at Southampton, it was established by a New York lawyer, Samuel Longstreth Parrish, to house his holdings of Italian Renaissance paintings and 19th-century plaster casts; both the building and the collection were given to the Village of Southampton after his death. In the 1950s a local philanthropist, Rebecca Bolling Littlejohn, chartered the museum as an independent entity, named it for Mr. Parrish, and endowed it with her own collection of American painting, rich in work by Impressionists like Chase and Childe Hassam, as well as local artists of the era, like Fairfield Porter and Larry Rivers. Once home to Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning and Roy Lichtenstein, among many others, the area has been an artists’ colony since the 19th century. Today’s residents, full time or seasonal, include Chuck Close, April Gornik, Eric Fischl, Ilya and Emilia Kabakov, and Donald Sultan, as well as many more lesser-known names. In 2005 the Museum purchased fourteen acres in Water Mill, New York, and the Board of Trustees selected the internationally celebrated architectural firm Herzog & de Meuron to design a new and expanded building there. Ground was broken in July 2010, and the 34,400 square-foot building opened to the public November 10, 2012. Drawing inspiration from local barn houses, Herzog de Meuron envisioned a single-story structure — 94 feet wide and 634 feet long — with the building’s galleries arranged in two rows along a central corridor, designed for flexibility, with temporary walls so that the size of the rooms can be adjusted. The building is covered by two parallel pitched roofs — one for each row — with north-facing windows that take full advantage of the soft northern light. The building doubled the size of the existing facility with 12,000 square feet of flexible galleries, including the first galleries dedicated to permanent collection. The museum includes educational and multi-purpose spaces, café and kitchen. The design incorporates administrative offices and onsite space for storage and care of the permanent collection. To support the architect’s vision for a clean minimalist building, all mechanical equipment was tucked away in the cellar and crawl spaces. As part of design team at Buro Happold’s New York office, Mr. Morozov conceived a geothermal heating and cooling plant that took advantage of high water table below the site. Geothermal water was pumped from 6 standing column wells, circulated through reversible heat pump chillers and dumped into 6 discharge wells downstream. The reversible chillers use ground source water to generate 45-degree water in the summer and 85-degree water in the winter. For even better energy efficiency the heat pump chillers were paired with displacement ventilation. Unlike overhead air supply, displacement ventilation air cools or heats the space with moderately cool or warm air. Custom air-handlers also were located in the cellar spaces. Air distribution was limited to building’s perimeter with supply ducts running in the oversized crawl space.

  • ROCHESTER SUYDAM NIHOP

    MULTIFAMILY ROCHESTER SUYDAM NIHOP PREVIOUS PROJECT NEXT PROJECT ARCHITECT PROJECT LOCATION PROJECT SIZE PROJECT COST SCOPE n 2017 the Department of Housing Preservation (HPD’s) identified 87 vacant lots to be included into its New Infill Homeownership Opportunity Program (NIHOP). NIHOP seeks to promote mixed-income communities with affordable homeownership opportunities for moderate- and middle-income households earning up to 80-90 and up to 130 percent of Area Median Income (AMI). The program provides land and construction financing to qualified developers with the goal to build affordable condominiums for working families in low income neighborhoods. The agency’s goal is to spur neighborhood revitalization directly through infill of vacant lots and indirectly through creation of opportunities to own property in the areas where homeownership is beyond the reach of many residents. Morozov is proud to be involved with a number of NIHOP projects. One of them- Rochester Suydam- consists of 3 clusters of 7 new buildings along Herkimer Street, Rochester, and Ralph Avenues in the Bedford Stuyvesant neighborhood of Brooklyn. The 7 buildings contain a combined total of 66 one- and two-bedroom apartments with a combined project size of 66,336 square feet. All the buildings within the NIHOP program are designed to a higher energy performance criterion than required by 2016 New York city Energy Conservation Code. Although the 66 units vary in layouts and sizes, all are provided with state-of-the-art central air HVAC and smart thermostats, thermally broken windows, Energy Star appliances, WaterSense plumbing fixtures, and LED lights with occupancy and daytime dimming controls. One of the biggest challenges for the design team was the budget. Because of HPD funding limits, each apartment had to be built for less than $ 70,000. Morozov engineers worked hand-in-hand with architect, sustainability consultant, developer, and vendors to carefully size and select MEP equipment while meeting energy efficiency and comfort goals of the project. Cooling and heating systems include residential single-zone ducted mini split systems, gas-fired condensing domestic water heaters. Fresh air is introduced into each apartment via energy recovery ventilators.
