Dear Warwick Residents;
FISP (Facade Inspection & Safety Program) Cycle 9 will commence on Monday, July 20th with our project contractor, Amsterdam Restoration. 
The current scope of work is in the front of the building on 35th Avenue. 
Cost is approximately $200,000 with a timeline of about 3 months. 
Time and cost may change if additional work is required. 

We encourage all residents to continue to report leaks and cracks to Orlando to investigate and report to our team at AMR Engineering while we have a team mobilized on site and weather is in our favor.

On Monday July 20, the sidewalk shed installation will commence from the east side - 77th st ("L" line) to the front - 35th Ave ("N" line). 
This is expected to take 2-3 days.  
As for previous cycles, we will continue to update residents via email, please take time to review notices.

We would like to bring the following to your attention:


1. Residents should be aware that this operation may cause dust, even though the contractor will be using vacuums for dust control.  Residents should close and lock their windows when work is taking place and nearby.
2. Amsterdam Restoration will protect the existing air conditioners with filters because of possible dust. However, these filters do not guarantee the safety of these A/C units, operation of air conditioners in the immediate area of work may result in irreversible damage to the units, and the residents are advised to use this equipment during non-work hours to avoid any problems with their equipment. If the A/C units are used by residents, Amsterdam Restoration and Warwick Owners Corp.  bear no responsibility for damage of the A/C units due to dust. Amsterdam Restoration strongly recommends that A/C units are not used, especially when work is being performed nearby. A/C units should be turned off any time an apartment is not occupied. A/C filters should be cleaned or exchanged frequently. We may ask that individual A/C units are removed so we can complete the work on a particular drop. Warwick Owners  Corp. is responsible for professional removal and reinstallation for the resident.
3. Operations may cause vibrations to the exterior walls. Residents should remove any hanging picture frames, mirrors, breakables, from walls, shelves, etc. that may be in danger of falling / breaking from these vibrations. Amsterdam Restoration and Warwick Owners Corp. are not responsible for damages caused by these vibrations.
4. Construction personnel will be outside of the residents’ apartments, on hanging scaffolding. Residents should close and lock their windows and close their blinds /curtains for privacy. Windows close to construction work will be covered with plastic sheeting. Please do not tamper with this covering. It will be removed when safe.
5. Residents should never stick their heads or any other body part out of their windows during the hours of construction for their own safety.
6. Residents should NOT interact with the contractor's employees for any reason. This is distracting and could be dangerous for the employees. If you have questions or concerns, please contact Orlando to relay to the foreman or Maria Pietrzak. 
7. Work will be conducted 8:00 am -5:00 pm Monday through Friday except for holidays (weather permitting).  Some work will cause noise and we apologize for the inconvenience.

Amsterdam Restoration and Warwick Owners Corp. will not be held liable for any damages due to residents failing to comply with these minimal measures to ensure their safety or that of their property. This project is filed with the Department of Buildings (DOB) for FISP compliance with all required COVID safety precautions.

Any questions should be directed to  our property manager, Maria Pietrzak in writing.

We greatly appreciate your cooperation.

Warwick Garden Reminders
With more people working and studying from home, we have noticed an increased use of the garden. We also acknowledge people are more sensitive about safety, noise and disruptions with COVID-19. 
We appreciate everyone's efforts regarding social distancing in our common areas and would like to bring new, temporary guidelines to your attention so everyone can have a level of comfort with our outdoor common area:

1. Only Warwick residents are permitted in the garden.
2. To maintain social distancing, only 12 persons are permitted in the garden at all times.  Please stay at least 6 feet apart unless you are in the same household.
3. Limit your time in the garden to 90 minutes to give all residents a reasonable opportunity to use it.  Please observe this time limit even if you do not see others waiting.  Others may be observing the garden from their windows and waiting for an opportunity to come down.
4. Masks must be worn at all times in the garden, even if no others are present.  Others may be observing the garden and be discouraged from using it if you are present without a mask.  The garden is for everyone.
5. Because masks must be worn at all times, there is no eating or drinking permitted in the garden, except that each person may have one beverage.
6. Please be mindful voices/sounds carry to your  neighbor's apartments that face the back. Using headphones for electronics/phone calls reduces noise for others in the garden and your neighbors.
The House Rules related to the garden are below.

We want to remind residents COVID-19 is alive and well and will be an ongoing issue for all of us. 
These guidelines are fluid and may change to keep everyone safe and feeling comfortable living here.
We appreciate your patience and co-operation during these trying times. 

Have a safe and Happy July 4th.
