Located a few blocks from the beach in Asbury Park, NJ, Monroe Condominiums is a new out-of-the-ground luxury property targeting second home buyers. The 4-story, 50,000 SF stick-built structure comprises 34 one-, two- and three- bedroom units with private outdoor terraces.  The building’s aesthetic pays homage to the city’s past by incorporating wooden planks from the resort’s famous boardwalk and stones from old architecture.

Collado’s engineers prepared heating and cooling load calculations based on the envelope construction, lighting, and equipment loads. The condominium units are provided with highly efficient variable refrigerant flow (VRF) heat pumps, with ceiling-mounted air conditioning units and roof mounted VRF heat pumps. Each unit is provided with a dedicated system. Common areas, such as the main lobby and the corridors, are provided with VRF systems as well.

Code mandated fire alarm requirements, including smoke/carbon monoxide detection and horn/strobes are installed in each unit.
