Project Overview
MEP engineering for the Pomona Housing Authority – 252 East 4th Street project supports the renovation of an existing 12-unit apartment complex into move-in-ready affordable housing located in Pomona, California. The approximately 9,312-square-foot interior renovation modernizes the residential units with upgraded mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems designed to improve comfort, safety, and long-term building performance.
The project required a comprehensive MEP engineering approach to revitalize the existing multifamily property while supporting the Housing Authority’s mission of providing quality, affordable housing for the community.
Project Scope
MEP engineering services include HVAC design, electrical design, lighting design, and plumbing design for the renovation of the existing apartment complex. Building systems are designed to support all residential units with updated infrastructure that integrates efficiently with the existing building while improving energy performance and operational reliability.
Engineering efforts focus on modernizing aging building systems, enhancing resident comfort, and delivering coordinated construction documents that facilitate efficient renovation and long-term maintenance.
