Trinity Consultants developed architectural acoustical design criteria to support guest comfort and privacy throughout the hotel, addressing both airborne noise and structure-borne vibration. The building is immediately adjacent to, and partially above, an active subway line, with a station located approximately one block away. As a result, vibration-induced noise posed a significant risk to guestroom comfort and sleep quality.
Trinity provided building isolation design strategies to mitigate vibration transmission into occupied spaces, balancing performance requirements with project budget considerations. The team remained engaged through design and construction to support implementation of vibration control measures and confirm alignment with the established criteria.
Audiovisual services included a building-wide distributed audio system providing house music throughout public areas, along with a high-quality sound system and temporary DJ input location within the Bar Hall. Event and meeting spaces were supported by high-definition projection and wall-mounted displays with localized input systems, as well as audio presentation and speech reinforcement capabilities. Digital signage and assistance with an in-room on-screen entertainment system were also included.
IT and security services addressed infrastructure and systems requirements, including cabling system for all IP-based building systems, access control and alarm monitoring, and video surveillance. These systems were designed to support hotel operations across public, private, and back-of-house areas without interfering with guestroom acoustic performance.
