Construction_2025
The 2025 season of Capital Campaign funded renovation is underway at 1501 Sage Avenue. This summer’s work will include two large projects: a sprinkler system throughout the House and addition of rooms in the 3rd Floor locker area. A smaller project, installing an institutional dishwasher and a new pantry sink, is already underway.
All drawings will be approved by the City of Troy and stamped by a Professional Engineer as appropriate.
Entire House Sprinkler System
Statement of Work: A House wide sprinkler system will be installed to meet City of Troy and State of NY requirements. In addition to 93 penetrations throughout the House to route sprinkler system piping, the current 2″ City of Troy water main must be replaced with a 4″ main.
Status (04/21/2025): Contract signed. Electrical work for heaters in the dorm area complete (to protect sprinkler system from freezing).
Pictures will be available once the work starts.
3rd Floor Locker Area Rooms
Statement of Work: This project will remove all of the permanent lockers on the 3rd Floor and build 5 rooms and a lounge in the main locker area. The Sophomore locker area (at the top of the stairs) has been cleared. An equipment room for HVAC will be built there but significant space remains to build additional rooms.
Status (04/21/2025): All permanent lockers have been disassembled and removed.
