The TV Studio in Building 1P at the College of Staten Island is a renovation and alteration of the existing TV Studios. The scope includes the demolition of some interior partitions, ceilings, mechanical, electrical, fire alarm & fire protection systems. The renovation consists of the Editing Room, TV-Video-Film Studio, Control Room, Small Studio and Audio Lab in a two-phase project. Added support spaces will be created to support the main TV Studio program, such as storage and equipment storage.
New construction includes installing new gypsum partitions, new CMU walls, patching CMU walls/openings, interior windows, glass partitions, doors, casework, shelving, all new finishes, equipment, and Audio/Visual equipment. An existing Classroom on the Second Floor will be converted into a new Computer Lab. Slab opening in existing slab will require the creation of a new “Foley Pit”. Miscellaneous steel supports required for glass partitions and modifications and additions to the fire protection, electrical and fire alarm systems will be required. Portions of the spaces will always be operational during the construction/renovation of this TV Studio. Safety and security will be paramount. Separation of construction personnel and students must be always maintained. There is limited storage and staging for this project.
The estimated construction cost is between $3,000,000 and $3,400,000.
