  • A Second Generation of LED Lights
    North Shore Towers CASE Residential STUDY A Second Generation of LED Lights APPLICATION – Common residential areas and elevator banks PRODUCT – T5 Sconce Bulbs LOCATION – Queens, NY OPPORTUNITY t takes about 1,850 light bulbs to illuminate the Icommon areas and elevator banks of the three 33-story buildings of one of New York City’s largest residential complexes – the North Shore Towers. The 1,844-unit co-op, located in Glen Oaks, Queens, near the Nassau County line, is a gated community that has its own golf course, zip code and self-generating power plant. Sal Castro, its chief engineer, jumped into the job of replacing bulbs for the hundreds of brass sconce fixtures when they started dimming after well over a dozen years of continuous use. He shopped around, looking for the best solution that combined safety, aesthetics, energy efficiency and value. After weighing the options, Castro, who has been in charge of preventive maintenance and corrective repair at the Towers for 36 years, took a page from the old engineer’s handbook that says, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” “The previous LED light project from LEDtronics saved us $16,223 per year, so the bulbs paid for themselves in 2.4 years, not counting the long-range savings on manpower and replacement bulbs,” says chief engineer SOLUTION hen you enjoy problem-free lighting an average cost of 8 cents per kilowatt hour,” “Wfrom bulbs kept on 24/7 for 14 years Castro recalls. “The project cost $39,624 and straight, and get raves from residents and staff saved us $16,223 per year, so the bulbs paid who love the color rendering and brightness for themselves in 2.4 years.

  • Superiority Complex: Life's a Country Club at Queens North Shore Towers
    AS SEEN IN THE: Superiority Complex: Life's a country club at Queens North Shore Towers By Jason Sheftell Friday, August 19th 2011 You can’t miss them. Three towers climbing out of the grassy border of Floral Park, Queens, near the Grand Central Parkway. But outside anyone who lives there or knows someone who does, rarely does anyone see it. That’s their loss, because North Shore Towers and Country Club is a world unto itself. It has an arcade of shops, indoor and outdoor pools, fitness center, 460-seat movie theater, two restaurants, an 18-hole golf course, five Har-Tru illuminated tennis courts and 1,844 apartments. Jeanne Noonan for News Studios can be bought for $175,000 and up, with one-bedroom/one-baths starting at $199,000. The big two-bedrooms in perfect condition with views of the Manhattan skyline and Queens countryside (yes, it’s a countryside) can go for up to $800,000, although they can start in the mid-$500,000 range. “This is like living in a resort, but it’s totally self- sufficient,” says Glen Kotowski, general manager of the complex and former NYPD precinct commander at the nearby 105th. “We have our own power generator, a staff of 250, and we’re literally active 24 hours per day. It’s not unlike running a precinct, except we’re not dealing with life-threatening issues. Crime is virtually nonexistent here.” Entering the gated driveway to North Shore Towers starts a series of real estate surprises. From left, co-op president Bob Ricken, real estate agent Linda Rappaport and G.M.
