202 South Orange Avenue

Multifamily Apartment Building

Residential

Project Overview

This project is 28,427 SF and a four-story building located at 202 South Orange Avenue, South Orange, NJ 07079. It features residential apartments on the upper floors, offering a mix of one- and two-bedroom units, along with an accessory open parking garage.

Design Approach

DEC is responsible for the MEP-FP system design, leveraging Revit software to enhance efficiency, sustainability, and occupant comfort. The HVAC design features a high-performance VRF system with energy recovery ventilation to ensure superior indoor air quality. The electrical systems incorporate energy-efficient solutions, provisions for EV charging, and solar-ready infrastructure. The plumbing design includes water-saving fixtures and appropriately sized hot water systems for each apartment. In addition, a comprehensive fire protection strategy—with sprinklers and a fire alarm system—provides enhanced safety throughout the building.

Why DEC

Choosing DEC adds value beyond this project scope, as our experience spans both commercial and residential work. We bring the same level of precision, safety, and code expertise to residential projects—delivering energy-efficient, reliable, and cost-effective solutions that ensure long-term performance and compliance with local regulations.
