Background and Discussion:

On March 13, 2018 Commissioners Court Order Authorizing the purchase of Riverside General Hospital located at 3204 Ennis Street, Houston, Texas 77004.  A grant from Houston Endowment funded the purchase of this property with stipulation for the renovation of the historical buildings on site which are on the National Register for Historic Places to be completed renovated by a certain date:  There are three historic buildings on this campus:  The main Hospital Building (1926), Nursing School Building (1931) and Utility Building (1931).  The main hospital building, located on the north part of campus, is to be renovated for office use.  The nursing school of utility building are to be renovated for meeting rooms use on the south part of the campus.

 

This request is for redesign of the building exterior thermal envelope and redesign of the mechanical system for a more energy efficient building.

 

Expected Impact:

The resultant building will be more energy efficient.

 

Alternative Options:

Stay with the current design.   Current design does not have any added insulation to the exterior walls.  Mechanical system heats and cools building at the same time, utilizing more energy over time.

 

Alignment with Goal(s):

_ Justice and Safety

_ Economic Opportunity

_ Housing

_X Public Health

_ Transportation

_ Flooding

_ Environment

_X Governance and Customer Service
