Black Rock Yacht Club

We provided property and in water structure surveys to validate the history of fill and lead the permit process where permits were obtained from local, DEP and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

The Mianus River Boat and Yacht Club Marina

We performed surveying services including sub-marine topographic conditions and design of boat slips for this 46-slip municipal marina with launching ramp.

We were also involved with the processing of Municipal, State and Federal permit applications in conjunction with the Greenwich Parks and Recreation Department. Construction services included stakeout, final location and contract negotiations with marine contractors.

Stamford Yacht Club

We mapped the mooring field, documented by historic data, and the position of the fixed pier and floating docks pursuant to permits from the Army Corps of Engineers and the Department of Environmental Protection to retain and maintain all of the Club’s in-water facilities. After a storm destroyed the pier, we were able to redesign and obtain permits to repair and replace the pier under the Certification of Permission process. Coastal Site Plan Permits were also designed and processed for upgrades to the Club’s facilities, including building additions.

Chelsea Piers

The redevelopment included adding a second story to the southern half of the building, creating a mezzanine level, completely renovating the interior of the first floor and redesigning exterior façades, curbing, walkways, parking, lighting, and landscaping.   The facility includes 2 ice skating rinks, an Olympic size swimming pool, a gymnastics training facility, batting cages, squash courts, a restaurant and snack bar, mezzanine viewing areas, basketball courts, tennis courts, a multi-purpose turf field, running track, and ancillary retail, office, and daycare facilities.

Greenwich Skating Club

The Greenwich Skating Club, Inc. demolished and reconstructed an existing facility on their 2.3 acre property in Greenwich, CT. For several decades, the Club has operated as a privately owned facility that offers organized competition, practice and instruction in hockey and figure skating as well as general skating time. The project entailed the construction of an approximately 9,000± square foot, two story clubhouse building that has a viewing room, locker rooms, gathering space, a kitchen and cafeteria, lavatories and miscellaneous rooms for coaches, skate sharpening, etc. Construction also included a separate building to house a zamboni and other mechanical equipment. We performed related site work such as grading, drainage improvements, utility services and reconfiguration of an existing service drive. The existing, full size outdoor hockey rink remained. We also introduced drainage improvements, Low Impact Development (LID) measures and new, state of the art mechanical/refrigeration equipment. The site is located near East Brothers Brook and is within a Special Flood Hazard Area making it necessary to design the project to comply with FEMA and local Flood Hazard Overlay Zone requirements as well as providing compensatory storage of flood waters.

Greenwich YMCA

We provided engineering services associated with site design, permitting and construction of the Phase 1 expansion of the Greenwich YMCA including a new State of the Art Olympics Aquatics Center with 50 meter by 25 meter. Engineering services included design of site grading, drainage, utilities, erosion controls, pavement, etc. The design required sensitivity to construction logistics in order to maintain business operations during construction and to address site constraints and neighbor concerns.

Woodway Beach Club

Our surveying services included preparation of a detailed Topographic Survey and processing of a “Certificate of Permission” (COP) Application for grading & dredging a portion of the existing beach.

Inn at National Hall

The redevelopment of the Historic Inn at National Hall, a red-brick Italianate building located on the west bank of the Saugatuck River near the center of Westport, CT. There are several buildings on the mixed-use site including space for office, retail and restaurant uses, as well as a public outdoor plaza along the river. Parking is expanded by adding a level to an existing two-level parking garage. Located within the 100-year floodplain, the project required compliance with floodplain management regulations and heightened environmental sensitivity. In addition to the site design, Redniss & Mead was responsible for seeking and securing approvals from the Westport Flood and Erosion Control Board, Conservation Commission, and Planning and Zoning Commission.

Residence Inn

Planning and Zoning services included Applications for Text Change, Special Exception and Site Plan approval for an “extended stay hotel”. The project is an innovative “infill” redevelopment project in a key location in downtown Stamford which includes several properties. Engineering services include engineered plans for construction depicting the design of site grading, drainage, utilities, erosion controls and team coordination. The project required designing an upgrade to an undersized City owned drainage pipe within the roadway. Surveying services include preparing a Property and Topographic Survey, Consolidation and Easement Maps.
