GK Engineers provided full MEP design for a multi-phase tenant program at 2500 East TC Jester, a Boxer Property office building in the Heights, following one law firm as it grew. The work covered a fifth-floor suite, a dedicated server room, a sixth-floor suite and a 15,500 SF expansion.

Each phase reused the existing floor panels and VAV distribution where capacity allowed, with new one-lines and load analyses for the fifth and sixth floor panels and LED lighting to the 2021 IECC. The server room got a wall-mount split system on a roof condenser, dedicated rack circuits and power for a clean-agent suppression system.

Landlord work runs fast: the server room went from kickoff to permit in two weeks, and bulletins tracked the tenant’s layout changes through construction. GK has done five other projects in this building since 2018.
