responsible solutions are the cornerstone of our professional services, particularly around transit-oriented development. Whether it’s ground up new construction for affordable senior housing, the adaptive reuse of a former office building into apartments, or
the re-purposing of an existing historic building on a Brownfields site, Fuss & O’Neill understands the sequencing and planning necessary for successful projects. Our team works collaboratively to develop smart, integrated site/civil, survey, landscape architecture, master planning, and transportation engineering solutions. Environmental engineering and life-safety investigations of asbestos, lead, PCBs, radon, and indoor air quality (IAQ) are expertly identified and monitored throughout the project.
Housing Experience Understanding and meeting specific goals for a variety of housing types sets Fuss & O’Neill’s planners and engineers apart. We have successfully planned, designed, and engineered residential projects for: •
Brownfield Redevelopments
•
Public Housing Authorities

and “brownfields” and canopy-mounted installations. These services often include initial project assessment, permitting, design, construction administration and witness testing. Specific services recently provided for clients have included survey, wetlands, Phase 1 ESA, Post Closure Use Permit, detailed civil design, structural design including ballast design calculations, racking design, and layout. The electrical design for these projects usually begins with the utility interconnection application. Projects have required AC and DC detailed design, from individual modules to the interconnection point, including relay settings, short circuit coordination, arc flash, and voltage drop calculations and utility interconnection application.
