Parking Lot #6 Update

Posted on by

It was unfortunate that the arm gave everyone so many problems right off the bat, but several modifications were made and triple tested that we have an operable arm. Effective March 1st starting at 6am the arm will be in service. As an added precaution our head of security, Mr. Perez will man the arm to make sure no one has issues with the arm and/or your remotes. If you have an issue with the remote not functioning, it is probably do to a faulty battery. Mr. Perez will have extra batteries just in case your current battery is out of service.

Going forward, if you have an issue were the arm will not rise, please do not force the arm to open as it will have the potential to create multiple mechanical malfunctions. Security has been instructed to respond to any calls relating to the arm not working properly and they will come over to  assist. Security can be reached at 718-266-6930.

Thank you for your continued cooperation.

The site safety plan has been approved by the Department of Buildings (DOB) pertaining to the next phase of construction which will affect all residents in building #4. Please take a moment and view the attached layout indicating closures and the re-direction of foot traffic to and from the building.

Window Project Update

Posted on by

This morning we visited Champion Window factory in Syosset, Long Island to have the pressure and water test performed. Both tests were succesful. Now, this coming Thursday these windows will be installed in apartment 1C (building #5). The Board of Directors will view the final sample windows at which time they will give the green light to mass produce and start our window replacement project some time in mid-March. In addition, one last water test will be performed on March 3rd and hopefully that will be succesful as well. We will keep you posted on the results. Please view the attached links below showing you some pictures of our visit.

Two Buildings at Once Update

Posted on by

The approvals, permit filings are in. You may have noticed that preparations for the mobilization of the mast climbers have started on building #4. We will have important information on the walkways that will be effected by closure early next week. At the moment the perimeter facing re-direction of foot traffic will be the front of the building facing the center court yard.Wings 2898 & 2900 will be the first phase of demolition and re-construction. A temporary ramp will be built on the backside facing west 8th street. Your only access to building #4 will be from west 8th street, that will also include your means of access to parking lot #5. Please stay tuned next week for more information, but everyone in wings 2898 & 2900 should start removing their air conditioners. As the board approved our maintenance staff to remove air conditioners for all in Building #5 for no charge, this will continue for all the buildings when they will be effected by the construction project.Our maintenance staff is available to remove your air conditioners for no charge. They can be reached at 718-266-6025.

Once the mast climbers are up, building #1 will start with mobilization soon after. This is great news in an effort the board worked on so diligently to speed up the construction which will minimize the inconvenience for all down to a potential two years less and reduce professional services which equals savings for Luna Park

Key Fob Update

Posted on by

I would like to thank all residents who have been able to obtain their key fobs and/or proximity cards, but we still have 457 residents who have not been able to pick up their fobs or cards. This afternoon, notices went out to these residents. We have given our personal time by staying open until 7pm on Thursdays and being open on Saturdays. So we ask the final 457 residents, to make every effort and pick up their fobs or cards.

We will start programming key fobs and cards for building #1 on February 22, 2011. It is estimated that we will complete building #1 by February 25, 2011, than building#2, 3, 4 & 5 will follow. Once we complete a building, a memo will be sent to you advising the conversion and throw your key away.

Thank you for your continued cooperation.

Window Replacement Update

Posted on by

On February 22, 2011, board members, our architect (L&M), owners Representative (SuperStructures) and management will be touring the Champion window factory  in Long Island at 10am.  We will be viewing the first set of windows for our project off the assembly line. The visit will include a water and pressure test to confirm the final sample delivery to building #5. If all goes as planned, Ecker windows will install the final sample windows in apartment 1C on February 24, 2011.

After the installation, board members will view the installation and confirm the  window sample with our architect and owners representative. The last piece of this puzzle will be to perform another water test to ensure that no water will penetrate apartment 1C after the installation. This will take place on March 3, 2011.

Ecker windows has confirmed that they will be able to start installing windows the week of March 21, 2011. It will take approximately two weeks per wing to complete, that is two full months to complete building #5 in its entirety if they have total cooperation with all residents.

Management will  coordinate access between residents and Ecker windows. All residents will be provided with schedules of installation as further details are provided to us.
