Window Installation Update

Posted on by

It is official, the window replacement project will commence on June 2, 2011. The first wing to be tackled will be 2960 West 8th Street. Please take a moment and view the attached link which provides you with very important information. You will notice a calendar with your apartment number positioned for a scheduled appointment date. It is very important to adhere to the attached scheduled. If you are not able to make arrangements for your scheduled date, you will need to contact maintenance immediately for a re-scheduled date. Please keep in mind, if we do not follow the attached schedule, we risk additional fees to re-schedule your apartment, so make every effort possible to accommodate.

Please note, the Appointment Confirmation Form has a small type-o. You will need to clear all items from within 4 feet of the windows NOT 6 feet.

If any residents of 2960 West 8th Street have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call me to further discuss.

New Window Installation Project Update

Posted on by

As you all are aware from prior correspondence, our window project is being held up by the Site Safety Manager (SSM) issue with the Department of Buildings. It is with great pleasure to advise everyone that the SSM issue has been resolved. The Department of Buildings has approved the exemption for the need of the SSM. The project will go forward within the next two to three weeks. We will provide further details on the logistic plan shortly.

I would like to take this time and thank everyone who spent numerous hours on this issue and was relentless on a positive outcome for Luna Park;  our Board of Directors, Len Ritz (Adam Leitman Bailey, P.C.) Marius Ebner (Owners Representative), William Struth & Basil Taha (Architects of Record).

We need to single out one individual who had the greatest impact with the Department of Buildings and that extra gratitude must go to our Board President, Keith Murphy. Keith was in close proximity with the head of the B.E.S.T squad which influenced this positive decision by the Department of Buildings.  Keith and the entire Board of Directors persevered and saved Luna Park $200,000 in unforeseen expenses. 

GREAT WORK EVERYONE!
