Client: CBRE

CBRE Group Inc brokered the sale of a former 55,000 SF data center in Teaneck NJ to a local private school. The sale took some time due to complicated zoning issues. In order to clear the building and the outside grounds for the new school, CBRE hired Quantum Technology to dismantle and remove the equipment. Quantum was actually able to pay for the equipment and do the work for free. The money went towards the construction costs of the new school.

Project Details:
The  Metal-Clad Utility Switchgear Block House had 2 incoming primaries at 26.4 KV, and needed extensive coordination with the electric company. Quantum resold the enclosure after disassembly. The oil was tested in the transformer to make sure it did not contain PCB’s. The transformer was resold. Inside the building, the electrical equipment was removed, to make way for the school build out.
