Work includes a natural ventilation system for all the rooms, ground duct fresh air intake, fully insulated exterior envelope, steam to hot water heating conversion, 100% new energy efficient lighting and the restoration/preservation of the original features such as terrazzo floor throughout, plaster ornament, and the natural stone façade.
