Lam+Tea Engineering delivered well-coordinated design documents for the 708 Manhattan Melrose Suites project, aligning fully with the project scope and schedule. Communication was consistent and collaborative, with productive Zoom meetings that supported timely revisions and decision-making. The project ran smoothly overall, and the team remains a preferred MEP partner across the client’s portfolio.

Bassem is always very easy to reach and communicate with. When we encountered mechanical challenges on the Houston project, he was very responsive and knowledgeable in helping resolve them.

Project Overview
A 39,000-square-foot upper school campus within a dense urban environment in Southern California. The project establishes a prototype for integrating educational facilities into constrained sites while maintaining high-quality learning environments.
This multi-story educational facility combines academic, recreational, and specialty spaces, requiring a coordinated MEP engineering approach to support diverse program needs within a compact footprint.
Project Scope
MEP engineering design supports a four-story school building with below-grade parking, including classrooms for grades 4 through 6, a semi-circular library, a multi-purpose gymnasium/auditorium, and specialty classrooms for music, art, science, and computers.
The project also includes elements of campus-wide master planning, including renovation and reconfiguration of existing facilities, as well as integration of new buildings on adjacent sites. The scope required coordination of HVAC design, electrical design, and plumbing design to support varied educational uses while adapting to tight site constraints and vertical building conditions.
